Not every episode is like that.

Take [0], where John Allison of BB&T discusses his business philosophy, and as an aside mentions that his bank doesn’t issue negative amortization mortgages (a cause of the recession) in 2007.

Or [1], where Michael Lewis discusses Moneyball and The Blind Side.

Or [2], where Christopher Hitchens discusses George Orwell.

Or [3], where Paul Graham talks about Hackers and Painters.

EconTalk has something for everyone.
