Jeffrey Sachs and Aaron Good Discuss ‘American Exception: Empire and the Deep State’ (DCC61)

American Exception

This special episode features Professor Jeffrey Sachs interviewing Aaron Good about American Exception: Empire and the Deep State. The interview was for Professor Sachs' excellent podcast and video series, Book Club With Jeffrey Sachs.

We decided to make a DCC episode which includes the interview, along with extra material before and after the discussion in which I speak about Jeffrey Sachs and then, eventually, about the history and and scholarship behind the concept of the deep state.

I encourage everyone to follow Book Club With Jeffrey Sachs. The Professor is a great interviewer, and his choices of books and authors are excellent. They have a YouTube channel and they are on the major podcasting apps.
