Podcast Appearances
Mankiw has been highlighting recent podcast appearances. Two posts focus on conversations with educators and economists.

If you're an educator looking for fresh ideas, this is a must-listen!
Next up is a discussion with Michael Klein featured on the Econofact podcast. The post doesn't delve into specifics, but promises an insightful conversation on economic topics. Be sure to check it out!
Summer Camp for Economic Theorists
Looking for a way to spend your summer? Mankiw shares an opportunity brought to his attention by his colleague, Eric Maskin: a "Summer Camp for Economic Theorists." While details are scarce in the post itself, the linked resource suggests it's likely the 35th Advanced School in Economic Theory. This event promises to be a great opportunity for economic theorists to connect and learn.
A Crypto Fairy Tale
Finally, Mankiw points readers towards a piece by the "wise Owen Lamont" titled "A Crypto Fairy Tale." This intriguing title suggests a narrative or allegorical take on the world of cryptocurrency. It's definitely worth a read for those interested in investment insights related to crypto. Lamont's perspective promises to be unique and thought-provoking.
