We go on yet another forced march, this time we learn the rules of the game from "The Dictator's Handbook," by Bruce Bueno De Mesquita and Alastair Smith.

Great discussion about a bleak book that's basically the PUA guide to politics, it seems, with an outlook that the hosts have (extremely qualified) respect for.

    heavily mathed out, which is always a weakness of nerds

    :michael-laugh: true that. I wonder if the book was controversial when it came out.
