Imagine you fell asleep 150 years ago, and you woke up today. LEVITT: I’m going to say, “I like antiphony.” LEVITT: Actually, I love all of those things.ĭUBNER: So the next time somebody asks you, “Steve Levitt, what kind of music do you like?” LEVITT: If I had to put in a song today, I would put in a very obscure song by a group called Iglu and Hartly, called “ In This City.”ĭUBNER: To start this off, we’ll play a song that exemplifies the musical style of Iglu and Hartly, which features basic rock song structures, call and answer vocal harmony, also known as antiphony, major key tonality, and a vocal-centric aesthetic and acoustic rhythm guitars. I want 100 more like it, and I don’t know where to find it.” What’s the song you’d put in today? I mean what an incredible invention that was.ĭUBNER: Now, if you had never gotten on Pandora and were just doing it today, what’s a song you would say, “God, this is the song I love. LEVITT: And it was absolutely stunning to me that there was a technology where you could tell it the music you liked, and it would play other music you had never even heard of but would like, and it would do it all for free, and if you didn’t like a song, you’d say “don’t play that song ever again.” And it would just go away.
Levitt’s my co-author, an economist at the University of Chicago. And I asked our blog readers, “Tell me what cutting edge technologies I should adopt in my life?” I got a lot suggestions and I think the only one that stuck with me was Pandora. And I admitted to people that I’m a very late adopter when it comes to technology. LEVITT: About three years ago, on our blog - the Freakonomics blog - I admitted to people that I’m a Luddite and that I don’t know anything about technology. And it’s so easy that even Steve Levitt can use it. There’s actually a solution to that radio problem. To give you only the songs you want to sing. To give you the things you need to make you smarter, richer, happier.
The key is an algorithm, a formula to harness that data and customize the world for you. If your personal data is like a fingerprint, then you’ve left big, greasy smudges all over the universe. Just go buy some baby diapers, see how long it takes before someone mails you a prospectus for a college-savings plan. Your airline does it, even your credit card company. Wouldn’t it be nice if the radio only played the songs you want to hear? The rest of the world has if figured out. When you do, and it ends, the next song stinks. You’ve been there: it’s impossible to find a decent song on the radio. and UFOs that he has seen, that they would make the logical conclusion that mankind is not alone and behave accordingly then THEY will return. Mike does not claim to be an expert on the subject, just an average citizen seeking to improve our civilization who believes that if everyone saw the same evidence for E.T. He’s explored connections between the objects in his photo and relics from ancient cultures and believes there are higher levels of civilization out there.
Mike also claims to be the first human to recognize that the Pyramid of the Sun in teotihuacan Mexico is a purposely designed giant human head. Mike also claims that one of the UFOs in his now famous in your heart UFO photo is hovering over the world's largest natural rock face on a local mountain for which he has also received front page coverage. Orrell claims that this represents an actual UFO Rosetta Stone and has convinced numerous journalists who have featured the real story and front page coverage, and every newspaper in San Diego as well as an award-winning CBS interview. Upon having the objects professionally enlarged, one of the craft was revealed to exactly duplicate that of the Kecksburg UFO, but it had a strange anomaly in the form of a spike like projection that overall was later found on numerous other UFO photos and countless ancient artifacts. Michael is a 64 year old retired graphic designer who in 1990 while hiking with two friends in the San Diego Outback accidentally captured a single 35 mm frame with his Canon EOS 650 camera, of 10 daylight UFOs that are seen. Reeling, Orrell went looking for answers to some of life’s biggest questions: Why are we here? What happens when we die? Are we alone in the universe? When he was 13, his father, a San Diego policeman, was killed in a dune buggy accident in Mexico. The guest tonight for Gary is MICHAEL ORRELL who was born in San Diego, he grew up in La Mesa. Join us tonight as we have The Martian Revelaer himself back on to help us bring forth the truth of what's hidden on the red planet.
