It’s a shame that the BLM cultist types will only even consider a counter narrative if it’s put forth by a non-white person. There are several, more well known white folks out there who’ve been making the same points as Glenn, John, and Coleman, but they are always dismissed as lacking the authority to speak on these topics because of their light skin pigmentation. So, you find some like minded darker skin pigmented people and they seem to have a better shot at getting through that initial barrier. As if only a black person can know certain facts and whites other facts, like knowledge is segregated. So, for that alone, I’m glad we have Glenn out here speaking truth to power.
@@Bobbyblu1122 I could not agree more with your thoughts. Glenn, John and Coleman are the truly outstanding voices, and although I've followed him less, I might put Kmele Foster in that group. It's in the complexity of their thoughts and ability to break it all down, and the genuine humanity that feeds their conversations (and an absence of pretentiousness). That they are enormously entertaining, just as personalities, is a bonus!
amazed at his level of understanding of scientific and medical complexity, on top of being a top legal scholar. really terrifying level if intelligence
Brilliant! What a pleasure to watch this cascade of well-informed commentary of several difficult topics! Richard Epstein must be some kind of genius, and I thank Glenn Loury for bringing him on.
Glenn, thank you very much for having Professor Epstein as a guest. He may be the greatest legal scholar ever, and a genuinely kind and generous man with brilliant insights.
People who protest come to protest peacefully. People who come to watch a stand-up comedian and enjoy the show, but there is always a heckler in the audience.
Gentlemen, a majority of our citizens put on a mask, and social distance for “essentials” like the grocery store, pet store, hardware store, etc. Casting a vote for the candidates of choice IS essential! Voting can be managed with the “essential” precautions. The only way we can vote with confidence in the results is using a process already proven reliable. In person, with ID must be considered essential. For those high risk, allow them an option to “APPLY” to vote otherwise as is done with absentee. Mail-in voting is an unreliable process that’s vulnerable to fraudulent actors. Attempting to establish and manage the mail-in voting process will certainly be costly, AND no matter the results, they will be questioned/doubted. It’s a bad plan.
Glenn, you’re my favorite. I love to listen to you talk, and watch you when you’re listening to other people talk. Promise I’m not a creepy stalker. Just a big fan 😂
@Erika Johnson He's highly influential, but it's possible that your professors choose not to cover his work for political reasons. Biden thumped his takings book during the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings and said 'if this is what you believe, you're not qualified to sit on the Supreme Court' lmao. Unfortunately he was soon overshadowed by lewder news.
A tennant's property rights extend no further than the conditions of their lease agreement. They should vacate the property when their lease is up. The property owner owes them nothing in excess of the lease agreement.
Glen, your great strength as a podcast host is rigorously interrogating even thinkers who generally agree with you. In this episode, you neglected your gifts. Maybe RE talks too assertively and voluminously for you to organize your thoughts / criticisms, but you're better than this!
States are only required to report where someone died, not where they came from. Thus if NY's governor wants to hide nursing home deaths he needn't do anything other than tell the state not to ask the question, or to hide the answers if they already asked.
Does anyone else sometimes have trouble deciphering Glenn's 'devil's advocate' retort or his own response. When his retort is a lil heated/passionate &displays his signature "tell" - a sharp jump in volume for words of emphasis - it's easy to distinguish; but, had I not previously heard him argue _against_ the notion that 'Trumps a racist', I would've assumed that was genuine.🤦🏼♀️ lol
mail in voting doesn't 'favor' democrats it just gives certain communities better access and removes the ongoing efforts of republicans to suppress those votes....
Why doesn’t the city just develop some these sites? Then rehouse some of the people in these communities in the new developments with below market rent. And market sale the rest of the housing to pay for it. That’s what’s happening in the UK. It’s a good model and doesn’t rely on private developers who aren’t interested in building social housing.
@@kimwiser445 Thank you. I am an Epstein fan from his RUclips lectures. Unfortunately, I have never seen him challenged. People are so stunned by his intellectual virtuosity and friendliness they don't say much. This is the first time I have been able to tell he was talking in a fact-free (HCQ/masks)zone.

Zinc is highly regulated - so it’s unclear whether a person can “bulk up” if you will on Zinc beyond the body’s regulation limit. That limit may or may not be sufficient to prevent viral replication sufficient to avoid the disease or its deleterious effects
7:00 wait a second! Is he saying that someone could have died in April, but they would report the death as a covid related death in May as if the death happened IN May? Is he saying that the news reports daily death tolls that actually include deaths that have happened at least a month before? And they do this due to a reclassification of the cause of a death that happened a month before? If that's what he is saying, I would imagine I'd be impossible for anyone to get any evidence of that. How could he know that?
@@yamishogun6501 See, this is way Epstein I saw Epstein is an elusive intellect. There is the total number of cases, the total number of deaths and then the infection rate and the daily death rate. Someone could have died in April and the hospitals didn't report the death until may (which is likely because, in FL, hospitals were being told to withhold data). A death reported later didn't add to the daily death toll; it added to the total number of deaths. If a bunch of hospitals didn't report - lets say - 2000 covid related deaths that happend in April until month later in May, there will appear to be a "spike" in th total cases, but it's not being reported as part of the daily death toll. If there were 150k deaths the day before and the daily toll was 1000, how do you get to 153k? Late reported covid deaths. All of that was lost in how Epstein talks about the subject.
Glenn asks a question to clarify that Epstein is referring to seniors with Covid being placed back into their nursing homes and infecting others at the directive of state leadership (e.g., New York).
Your show is great Glenn; although, this episode featuring a law professor giving his best impression of an epidemiologist and a public health expert isn't one of the better ones. When it comes to infectious disease, I think it's better for us if we stay in our lanes and give those who are more trained and more experienced (Like Dr. Fauci) the space to lead.
How many infectious disease experts understand trade-offs, marginal cost, unintended consequences, economics, which are all needed areas of expertise when facing an epidemic?. Not simply, if it saves one life, the hell with the economic destruction, 40 million unemployed, and that lives that go with it.
@@ajg1791 its so f-ng mad how we got here... shut down everything and blame trump, be the ones in favour of as muc hlockdowns as possible, then whine at trump for ruining the economy... every single thing is politicised by these people, and in such an incompetent, transparent way
That experts should be believed when stating facts in their field is a fair assumption. But the discussion of those facts--their relevance, priority, and fit within schemes of public policy--should be on as broad a basis as possible. If the epidemiologists and frontline doctors were holding a wide ranging public DEBATE, touching base with economists, lawyers, historians, etc. where those subjects come into play, I would tune into that before this interview. But that's not happening. So, we're reduced to sampling from the jungle of the new media at random and forming judgments with whatever discipline we ourselves possess. Given that situation, I'm glad to have someone like Richard Epstein to listen to.
More privatization does not work but for the capitalists and investors. Neoliberal privatization is now causing destruction from uncontrollable bubblenomics. More privatization gives you opioid epidemics and economy sucking wealth transfer. You can argue that "the free market, laissez faire, unregulated privatization financial parasitism just hasn't been done correctly, but this time we're gonna get it right". There's been too many next times. .....And it appears that big multinational corporations, banks, insurers, etc. are being protected more and more by the ever so huge and expanding mother's embrace of the corporate national nanny state. So socialism for Wall st and global corps but capitalism and free market for working class and those priced out of homes? That would be a solution if unnecessary austerity is your goal, hopefully we can do better than that. .........And one thing I find interesting about this RUclips is that it doesn't recognize the word neoliberal or opioid? I'm sure it recognizes them, but doesn't like me using them?
Your resentment talk sounds like projection. I don't mind billionaires, only parasitic billionaires. Definitely don't like Bill Gates. I'm not saying you are wrong about the inflation and the politics, but like I said, socialism, or Keynsianism (printing trillions on a deficit of trillions?) for multi nationals and Wall St banks is not good for the real economy. It might be wrong calling that socialism. Socialism usually has the wider public in mind. But I would argue that all the currency printing is not going into the real economy. I would say it is being pocketed into private pockets, neoliberal pockets, and pumping up the stock market, something unrelated to the real economy. I exaggerate, the stock market is related to the real economy but is becoming more and more detached. The fraudulent asset inflation can be used to continue asset inflation, moved into safer havens or used to strengthen monopolies. I think most Americans like socialism, for instance public schools, medicare ,medicaid, fire dept., police dept.. I can get emotional and a little excited when I hear an argument for more free market ideology. The acknowledgment of endless currency printing for investment banks, insolvent corporations and inflating asset prices makes blatantly clear that our market is not a free market. I think we have a consumer credit economy that is kept artificially functioning from free or nearly free money for creditors. I'm all for earning from the markets, but earning from the market doesn't mean I expect everybody to be stock investors or real estate investors. ........But the initial subject that I was responding to was about public housing. I think we have been showing more and more favor and assistance to private development and investment to the neglect of reasonable public housing options. Even the "public housing" market has become privatized essentially. I understand that some are adamantly opposed to realistically affordable public housing as if it is an assault to their person, but I think it makes sense depending on one' s values. I say depending on one's values because for a "privatized" for profit system to work, their needs to be people being priced out of the market for maximum profit yield. ..... So I am someone that sees capitalism as workable, but not any kind of capitalism. I don't think I'm alone. Unrestrained capitalism in public housing and healthcare is something that is not ideal in my view. And definitely not ideal in elder care and nursing homes during the covid pandemic. .........As I think about unrestrained capitalism I am reminded of the Bloggingheads video where Robert Wright is talking with a foreign policy scholar at the Cato Institute that took a very cold view of the exercise of power. She basically looked at foreign policy and the strategies that can be employed in the pursuit of "national interests", basically oil, economic advantage, hegemony etc. as simply an issue of relative power. In other words if you can ignore, manipulate or co-opt human rights organizations, then anything goes. Since the US has the biggest military by far, cyber intelligence, covert ops, not to mention very active and insidious propaganda operations and top down state censored mainstream media that is in part owned by defense industry contractors, in the world of foreign affairs and national defense, anything goes. .........In unavoidable war that should be the case, but what about avoidable war? What about unprovoked invasions and state terrorism through proxies? Syria? Yemen? Venezuela? Bolivia? Libya? ..... I digress. I think like anything, just as you can be too soft, you can also be too aggressive and hostile. .........Then there are the sanctions. Remember Madeleine Albright on 60 Minutes: "500,000 dead Iraqi children is worth it". I know it was a long time ago but the US foreign policy has not changed. There was no threat against the US, it was just something the US could get away with in the pursuit of oil, economic advantage, hegemony etc. ...... .............My excuse for going on an anti-imperialist rant is to point out that the the US foreign policy has a lot in common with domestic economic policy in practice and the values expressed in the propaganda. Of course you can find a perfectly "logical" State Dept. approved economic theory to justify all of it and more in the Wall St Journal, CNBC, Bloomberg and countless others.
LIfe-year adjust the deaths and the loss of potential life is comparable to bad flu years. Other key issue is older peopel are always more vulnerable based on the body *except* for prior immunity. They have no prior immunity to this hence the deadliness of disease to them.
That and the fact that while we now know much more about the virus than we did at the beginning of the year, we still know next to nothing. It seems it may be able to cross species barriers, into pets. Who knows if it can infect livestock. We really don't know how quickly it will evolve. A one-time injection like for polio? Enough to require a yearly injection like influenzaSo quickly like a cold that shots would be worthless? We really don't know how long immunity will last after recovering from it, much less how long any potential immunization injection would last.

Physical modification???? Then men shall lose once more So man must transcend And reclaim by force However this is also nothing but blind hatred and justified motivations for revenge This must be healed Through trust However It is more complicated than a simple generalization For instance How do I tell my immigrant mother Of Cam bridge Or ox Ford How do I stop her nightmares Her tragedy And the black hole sun she is entangled in The more I do so The more I cough And this ofcourse Demands Unity But if unity is Blm Marxism Or maoism Then I will continue to be A Mad Poet A New Blake I will call out the Drakes The Kanyes The Billies While I search with my eagle eyes For their masters This is my study of psychology The natural extension of the emergence of moral character And I with 100% earnest With no ass kissing Still believe You both are braver than I for being in public I hide still I am in a basement you see The noise is too loud And I'm compromised with too much hate In fact it fuels me So it's best I stay in the realm of letters of sorts

Epstein is an expert on Pharma law. Weird how he mixes and matches valid data with fantasy. I would love to see him on a panel with working virologists.
academia arent scientists. when you virtually cannot find a single academia conservative or a single one whos allowed to openlystate how absurd the cult propaganda nature of the hoax that is global warming is, you know how unsalvagably poison the whole field is
@@ret1con you linked to clowns making up data. 2.you linked to basic data of temperature changes. both sides of the climate debate uses temperature data. that slide has absolutely nothing to do with anything. 3.as it points out, theres been a 1 degree change over a hundred years, with a very small percent being thanks to co2. and you want to claim were on the verge of a point of no return, a runaway effect. that somehow, for some reason, there will be an enourmous shift in the trend, and we will have catastrophic increases of 2, 3, whatever degrees in 30 years, based on delicately manually calibrating models to fit t heir narrative, based on models no actual computer modeller respects.. based on a modelling area, climate modelling, infinitely more difficult than current computers can even attempt todo realistically. and they want to convince us that these sudden changes will happen at a point n time where CO2 and temperature levels are at the low end of the historical ranges, plants being recently scarily close to starvation levels, still being way too low for optimal health. usually runaway effects tend to happen at th etop and above a longterm range of different temperatures/whatever the topic in question, not at the bottom range of both temperature and CO2 levels. normally, as in ases with religion, science requests extreme claims to require extreme evidence (whatever the quote was again). Havent see na whole lot of that in climate science.
Someone who is not a medical professional is saying that he avoids going to anywhere that will force him to wear a mask. Apparently he doesn't want to wear a mask but doesn't say why. Doing something so simple may help so why not do it? I stopped watching.
Gotta be honest he lost me when he said he agrees with pulling out of the Paris accords. It's so short-sighted it was hard to take him seriously after.

I would say it is being pocketed into private pockets, neoliberal pockets, and pumping up the stock market, something unrelated to the real economy. I exaggerate, the stock market is related to the real economy but is becoming more and more detached. The fraudulent asset inflation can be used to continue asset inflation, moved into safer havens or used to strengthen monopolies. I think most Americans like socialism, for instance public schools, medicare ,medicaid, fire dept., police dept..
I can get emotional and a little excited when I hear an argument for more free market ideology. The acknowledgment of endless currency printing for investment banks, insolvent corporations and inflating asset prices makes blatantly clear that our market is not a free market. I think we have a consumer credit economy that is kept artificially functioning from free or nearly free money for creditors. I'm all for earning from the markets, but earning from the market doesn't mean I expect everybody to be stock investors or real estate investors.
........But the initial subject that I was responding to was about public housing. I think we have been showing more and more favor and assistance to private development and investment to the neglect of reasonable public housing options. Even the "public housing" market has become privatized essentially. I understand that some are adamantly opposed to realistically affordable public housing as if it is an assault to their person, but I think it makes sense depending on one' s values. I say depending on one's values because for a "privatized" for profit system to work, their needs to be people being priced out of the market for maximum profit yield.
..... So I am someone that sees capitalism as workable, but not any kind of capitalism. I don't think I'm alone. Unrestrained capitalism in public housing and healthcare is something that is not ideal in my view. And definitely not ideal in elder care and nursing homes during the covid pandemic.
.........As I think about unrestrained capitalism I am reminded of the Bloggingheads video where Robert Wright is talking with a foreign policy scholar at the Cato Institute that took a very cold view of the exercise of power. She basically looked at foreign policy and the strategies that can be employed in the pursuit of "national interests", basically oil, economic advantage, hegemony etc. as simply an issue of relative power. In other words if you can ignore, manipulate or co-opt human rights organizations, then anything goes. Since the US has the biggest military by far, cyber intelligence, covert ops, not to mention very active and insidious propaganda operations and top down state censored mainstream media that is in part owned by defense industry contractors, in the world of foreign affairs and national defense, anything goes.
.........In unavoidable war that should be the case, but what about avoidable war? What about unprovoked invasions and state terrorism through proxies? Syria? Yemen? Venezuela? Bolivia? Libya? ..... I digress. I think like anything, just as you can be too soft, you can also be too aggressive and hostile.
.........Then there are the sanctions. Remember Madeleine Albright on 60 Minutes: "500,000 dead Iraqi children is worth it". I know it was a long time ago but the US foreign policy has not changed. There was no threat against the US, it was just something the US could get away with in the pursuit of oil, economic advantage, hegemony etc. ......
.............My excuse for going on an anti-imperialist rant is to point out that the the US foreign policy has a lot in common with domestic economic policy in practice and the values expressed in the propaganda. Of course you can find a perfectly "logical" State Dept. approved economic theory to justify all of it and more in the Wall St Journal, CNBC, Bloomberg and countless others.
richarddddddd -- ngl, he's had some horrible takes through covid, but 'simple rules for a complex world' is as close to a bible as i have
LIfe-year adjust the deaths and the loss of potential life is comparable to bad flu years.
Other key issue is older peopel are always more vulnerable based on the body *except* for prior immunity. They have no prior immunity to this hence the deadliness of disease to them.
That and the fact that while we now know much more about the virus than we did at the beginning of the year, we still know next to nothing.
It seems it may be able to cross species barriers, into pets. Who knows if it can infect livestock.
We really don't know how quickly it will evolve. A one-time injection like for polio? Enough to require a yearly injection like influenzaSo quickly like a cold that shots would be worthless?
We really don't know how long immunity will last after recovering from it, much less how long any potential immunization injection would last.
Am I sluggish or is Richard Epstein talking very quickly?
I am from Chicago
I will observe this video with great interest and come up with a more well-iterated thought form then what I am about to udder
For now such wells have been sucked dry
I sense intense mysticism
The likes of which we have never seen
At least
I have become aware of the starving artist
And have become like them
To understand what all the buzz is about
The hyper level projection here
Is beyond the universities
It is essentially
Weaponized literature
This is the best way to describe the white noise
Which is actually black noise
Which is actually tactical noise
Which is not
Let's say..
It's not bad perse
As it has its place in our canon
The issue is simple
It has become the apriori perspective with many youth
It has become the matrix in which the lense of perception is gauged
The entire mode of thought
Is in fact not thought
The fact
Is in fact not a fact at all
The bias is in fact not a bias
But is never reflected on
Not out of a lack of morality
But out of a lack of capacity
And in incremental steps
This
Thought virus
To take from dr. Phil
This
Parasitic mind
To take from saad
This toxosplosmosis
To take from that one guy
This perverse cat
To take from the abrahamic religions
This sphinx
To take from the post modern types
And spiritualists
This dare I say
Machine
Is enough to want any slave to utterly deconstruct it completely
Yet
It is nothing more
Than a bad dream
A nightmare as it were
That feeds on itself
Had the political and journalistic field developed a genuine care for the working class
They would have attempted true reconciliation with the adversary
Down to the final questions
and the most unforgivingly difficult conversations
This is what's needed amongst the "teachers" and in particular the administrators
Unfortunately
This seems like a passionate demand of sorts
Because it is a passionate demand of sorts
But it's also not
I wish not to yell and trigger any latent submissive neurosis
I send you all hugs
However
Grow up too yee animus driven women
Yee entanglement magi
I see yee
Yee killed your own men
And turned them to blind beasts
And now that the animal realizes hes in his cage
You double down
What on earth do you expect a man to do
In such an instance
Than to punch a woman
Except
In the final analysis
A real man would find a way
To reveal rhe whole story
Without it coming down to physical altercation
But what now??
Physical modification????
Then men shall lose once more
So man must transcend
And reclaim by force
However this is also nothing but blind hatred and justified motivations for revenge
This must be healed
Through trust
However
It is more complicated than a simple generalization
For instance
How do I tell my immigrant mother
Of
Cam bridge
Or ox Ford
How do I stop her nightmares
Her tragedy
And the black hole sun she is entangled in
The more I do so
The more I cough
And this ofcourse
Demands
Unity
But if unity is
Blm
Marxism
Or maoism
Then I will continue to be
A Mad Poet
A New Blake
I will call out the Drakes
The Kanyes
The Billies
While I search with my eagle eyes
For their masters
This is my study of psychology
The natural extension of the emergence of moral character
And I with 100% earnest
With no ass kissing
Still believe
You both are braver than I for being in public
I hide still
I am in a basement you see
The noise is too loud
And I'm compromised with too much hate
In fact it fuels me
So it's best I stay in the realm of letters of sorts
Wow Epstein is really talking out of his ass about the pandemic. Stick to economics, professor
“MASK WEARERS ARE “DRAMATICALLY LESS LIKELY” TO GET A SEVERE CASE OF COVID-19”

Sorry, you guys are not scientists - stick to law and politics and economics
Epstein is an expert on Pharma law. Weird how he mixes and matches valid data with fantasy. I would love to see him on a panel with working virologists.
academia arent scientists. when you virtually cannot find a single academia conservative or a single one whos allowed to openlystate how absurd the cult propaganda nature of the hoax that is global warming is, you know how unsalvagably poison the whole field is

@@ret1con you linked to clowns making up data.
2.you linked to basic data of temperature changes. both sides of the climate debate uses temperature data. that slide has absolutely nothing to do with anything.
3.as it points out, theres been a 1 degree change over a hundred years, with a very small percent being thanks to co2. and you want to claim were on the verge of a point of no return, a runaway effect. that somehow, for some reason, there will be an enourmous shift in the trend, and we will have catastrophic increases of 2, 3, whatever degrees in 30 years, based on delicately manually calibrating models to fit t heir narrative, based on models no actual computer modeller respects.. based on a modelling area, climate modelling, infinitely more difficult than current computers can even attempt todo realistically.
and they want to convince us that these sudden changes will happen at a point n time where CO2 and temperature levels are at the low end of the historical ranges, plants being recently scarily close to starvation levels, still being way too low for optimal health.
usually runaway effects tend to happen at th etop and above a longterm range of different temperatures/whatever the topic in question, not at the bottom range of both temperature and CO2 levels.
normally, as in ases with religion, science requests extreme claims to require extreme evidence (whatever the quote was again). Havent see na whole lot of that in climate science.

Someone who is not a medical professional is saying that he avoids going to anywhere that will force him to wear a mask. Apparently he doesn't want to wear a mask but doesn't say why. Doing something so simple may help so why not do it? I stopped watching.
Is Richard on a boat in heavy weather? Getting seasick him moving back and forward🤣
I almost feel bad, the first thing I wondered is if he was related to the other Epstein.
There are millions of Epsteins. The name comparison thing is childish.
@Chad Michael First thing I think of when I hear Chad is Chaz, Chop, and antifa. How's that?

Glenn Lowry has TDS at about 42:30. Very sad.
If you've heard enough Glenn, it's safe to say he was playing devil's advocate rather than expressing his beliefs. Also hinted by his tone of voice.
@@Lebbz Yes, if you've seen other episodes it's very obvious he was being sarcastic. But I realize it might not be so obvious for new viewers.
Epstein reeks of dishonesty
This is beneath you Glenn
Gotta be honest he lost me when he said he agrees with pulling out of the Paris accords. It's so short-sighted it was hard to take him seriously after.
Paris accords are a globalist attempt to further loot the US. Trump was right to withdraw.
What's so great about UN globalism?
Paris accord countries seem to be harming their own citizens, although clearly we can differ in good faith as to whether the harms inflicted are deliberate or merely stupid...
@@davidward8355 - deliberate
@@davidward8355 Umm how about trying to prevent cascading climate collapse? Everything we have depends on having a stable environment with which to function as a society, and we are destroying it so old people can stay rich while young people like me are staring collapse in the face right now.
@@iamthebearjew96 - there is no cascading climate collapse, research the real data. Even UN IPCC says so. Having said that, we DO need to do more for clean air and water (much progress already made in developed world) and especially oceans (long way to go).
