The format has been tweaked for episode #24 of the In The Tank Podcast. Hosts Donny Kendal and John Nothdurft explore the world of think tanks. This weekly podcast features (as always) interviews, debates, roundtable discussions, stories, and light-hearted segments on a variety of topics on the latest news. The show is available for download as part of the Heartland Daily Podcast every Friday.
Moving forward, the In The Tank Podcast will feature several segments that give you a view into what the think tanks around the world are working on. These segments include:
Better Know a Think Tank
This segment will feature a representative from a think tank who will discuss the mission, objectives, and work of their organization.
Since this is the first episode of this new format, we get to know The Heartland Institute better.
Featured Work of the Week
In this segment, we will highlight a study or report produced by a think tank that we feel deserves extra recognition.
We discuss the World Economic Freedom Ranking produced by The Heritage Foundation where America has slipped down to #11.
In the World of Think Tankery
Here is where we discuss other timely, newsworthy stories that think tanks focus on.
Today we discussed The Freedom Foundation‘s report on Washington State’s Failed Minimum Wage Experiment. We also touched on an article by Reason about a person’s struggle over a tape of Super Bowl I with the NFL.
