Show Notes

We discuss a recent op-ed by Richard Reeves describes a sense of self-pity among the wealthy. We discuss this phenomenon of elite self-pity, and whether we can fairly include sociology professors among the self-pitying elite.

Our guest is Eric Schwartz, Editorial Director at Columbia University Press.
