ai5000 interviews Nassim Taleb

May 2010 Nassim Taleb Interview with Russ Roberts EconTalk.org

This is the third Russ Roberts Econtalk.org interview which took place just before the April 2010 release of the second edition of The Black Swan.

2010 Taleb on Black Swans, Fragility, and Mistakes.

Very interesting to listen to all three interviews in sequence.
