Season 1: Free markets and consumerism with Cornell University professor Lawrence Glickman - a podcast by The Neighborhood Watch Podcast by The Atlanta Way: A Documentary on Gentrification

In this episode of The Neighborhood Watch Podcast, I hopped on Zoom to talk to Cornell University professor Lawrence Glickman.

Professor Glickman has written several books on consumerism, free markets, and society.

In this interview, we talk about whether or not boycotts are liberal, conservative, or both. Remembering the backlash to The New Deal, why consumers supporting brands politically is nothing new, and misunderstandings on what 'free markets' mean.
