    Listener Favorites: Russ Roberts | The Decisions that Define Us
    Apr 7 2025
    We have apps telling us who we should date, what music to listen to and which route to take to work, but no algorithm or AI can tell us who we should marry, where we should live or at what age we should have children. According to economist Russ Roberts, these decisions are borne of the necessity to solve life's wild problems. They aren't decisions made by us but rather by who we want to be. They are the decisions that define us.
