ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Necessary & Sufficient exists as an exploration of ideas (including those of duality, bifurcation, and hierarchy), a meditation on communication, a map of my mind, and a document of its own creation.
Each week I record a conversation with a guest about a pair of related yet distinct concepts. The guest doesn't know about the topic in advance (I send them a set of index cards through the mail, which they open on-air) but I try to match up people with ideas that they will have some knowledge or opinion about. This isn’t a quiz, but an attempt to capture extemporaneous conversation and thoughts as they unfold between two people. Some topics are technical, some are general knowledge, but all are all open-ended in some way.

Why did it take me so long to have Alex on N&S? Was I waiting for her to finish her degree? Well, done and done.

Yeah, it’s been quite a while. But let’s jump back on this like nothing ever happened, okay? I’m glad we can agree to agree.

Sporting correspondent Brian Levinson almost, but not completely, convinces me to watch March Madness. I think his one misstep was comparing game-day action to a Michael Bay movie. Bayhem!

Josh does me the courtesy of provisionally accepting my homebrew definition of one of this week’s words. Always a treat to have him back.

It’s always a pleasure to have this dynamic duo back on the podwaves. The conversation was as lively as you would expect, which is to say, lively.

Lukas is, by now, a certifiable friend of the show. It was great to have him back again.

In which I am, once again, mortified at the things that I say.

Jesse moved from Ithaca to Los Angeles in the time since we recorded this, so try to imagine the same conversation, only warmer.
