Conversations with Tyler: Tyler Cowen with Special Guest David Brooks

Join New York Times columnist David Brooks with renowned economist Tyler Cowen for a conversation about technology, morality, and finding humility in today's fractious political culture — in a live taping of Cowen's hit podcast Conversations with Tyler. David Brooks' explorations of morality in contemporary politics and culture — the cultivation of spiritual and intellectual rigor through compromise and humility — have made him an uncommonly steady voice in an unsteady time. Critiquing the excesses of the right and the left in his bestselling books and New York Times columns, Brooks examines how class, education, and consumer culture have shaped our identities. He is exactly the kind of thinker who Tyler Cowen loves to talk with on Conversations with Tyler — Cowen's hit podcast offering wide-ranging examinations of work, the world, and everything in between: a platform for genuine intellectual curiosity. Returning to 92NY's stage after his sold-out conversation kicking off The Dialogue Project, hear Cowen talk to Brooks about what has shaped their intellectual lives. Take an unscripted tour of Brooks's early Chicago crime-reporting days, how he would redesign his famed Yale "Humility" syllabus for a TikTok-native generation, the evolution of his religious worldview, his latest ideas on "moral capital," and much more.
