Can't wait to listen to this! I've been listening to EconTalk forever and have gone back and listened to them all since 2006.

Re: Russ Roberts
I'm also a long-time listener to EconTalk.
It's a wonderful podcast -- unburdened by ads, pitches, book picks of the week, etc., even though I don't pay to get it ;-)

Re: Russ Roberts
I'm really excited for this. Russ Roberts has done as much to change and temper my thinking on economics and life as most anyone else around. So this is really something I'm excited to listen to.
I need to go back and clean up all my EconTalk podcasts, since I'm a "lapsed listener" mainly just cause I've been busy with other podcasts/audiobooks.
