Every Friday, we’ll break down the biggest stories shaping business, technology, politics, and culture — and connect the dots across the conversations happening throughout the Prof G universe.

This week, George breaks down why the bond market is suddenly sounding alarms and why it may be signaling something much bigger than inflation.

We discuss the economic fallout from the war in Iran, rising oil prices, growing fears around U.S. debt, and why investors are starting to worry that borrowing costs could stay higher for longer. Plus: China and Russia grow closer, SpaceX files for a massive IPO, and Gavin Newsom shares a deeply personal story about regret, leadership, and family.

They discuss California’s housing crisis, homelessness in Los Angeles and San Francisco, AI’s threat to white-collar jobs, wealth taxes, healthcare reform, and why Newsom believes Democrats are often perceived as “slow, weak, and ineffective.”

They also unpack Israel and Iran, the future of capitalism, masculinity, parenting, and the growing divide between the rich and everyone else.

]]><![CDATA[What Does a War Really Cost? (ft. Justin Wolfers)]]>https://www.profgmedia.com/p/what-does-a-war-really-cost-ft-justinhttps://www.profgmedia.com/p/what-does-a-war-really-cost-ft-justinTue, 26 May 2026 14:42:01 GMTGovernments are usually quick to tell us what a war costs. They’re much slower to tell us what counts.

In this Prof G+ Deep Dive, Scott breaks down why the official price tag of war almost always understates the real economic cost — from military spending and replacement weapons to veteran care, inflation, debt interest, and the decades-long consequences that rarely make it into the headline number.

Then, Scott speaks with economist Justin Wolfers to unpack why estimating war costs is so difficult, why governments routinely get it wrong, and what Americans should understand before accepting any number at face value.

These are the kinds of exclusive episodes our Prof G+ subscribers get regularly — deeper analysis, sharper context, and conversations you won’t hear on the main feed.

America used to borrow to build the future. Now it borrows to maintain the present.

In this Deep Dive, Scott breaks down how debt became embedded in every layer of the economy — from trillion-dollar government interest payments, to leveraged corporate bets on AI, to consumers financing groceries and food delivery.

Then, Scott sits down with Morgan Housel to unpack the psychology of debt, financial insecurity, and why borrowing increasingly feels less like a choice and more like a survival strategy.

In this Deep Dive, Scott unpacks the growing evidence that heavy AI use may weaken critical thinking, reduce learning retention, and increase reliance on flawed outputs. From consultants making worse decisions to students performing worse without AI, the data points to a troubling trend.

He also explores the rise of “cognitive surrender” – and why our growing trust in AI may be outpacing our ability to question it.

ICYMI – Prof G Media’s very own Research Lead, Mia Silverio, recently explored a related angle over on the Markets Newsletter.
