Nothing Lasts Forever (with Aja Raden)

Greg Olear is joined by Aja Raden, author of “The Truth About Lies” and “Stoned,” to talk about “Nothing Lasts Forever,” the new documentary about the diamond industry in which she appears. They also discuss “peak crazy,” the banking crisis, Elon Musk and the future of Twitter, the protests in Israel, the benefits of the two-party system, fascism, incels, and the difference between silicon and diamonds when making computer chips. Plus: a little dance number.Follow Aja on Twitter:https://twitter.com/AjaRadenBuy her books:https://www.amazon.com/stores/Aja-Raden/author/B013SJLVJIWatch the trailer for the documentary:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8hZWRMK9pESubscribe to the PREVAIL newsletter:https://gregolear.substack.com/about Make America Great Gatsby Again!https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-great-gatsby-four-sticks-press-centennial-edition/e701221776c88f86?ean=9798985931976&next=tSubscribe to The Five 8:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0BRnRwe7yDZXIaF-QZfvhACheck out ROUGH BEAST, Greg’s new book:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D47CMX17ROUGH BEAST is now available as an audiobook:https://www.audible.com/pd/Rough-Beast-Audiobook/B0D8K41S3T Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
