Was It Fun?

Over at Marginal Revolution, Tyler Cowen offered a personalized podcast to anyone preordering his new book Discover your Inner Economist. I preordered one simply because I like his writing and his personality, and because I expect to learn from it. I didn't actually have a question, but this sentence from his offer nagged at me:

        I believe this will be fun for me.  


...so at the last minute I sent him my question: "Was it?" I was curious because we humans are so often lousy at predicting what we will or will not enjoy.

Tyler has just replied, in more depth and with more feeling than I expected. He even liked my question. Listen for yourself to see if he did indeed have fun. Then go buy your own copy.

His reply satisfied me. I look forward to receiving his book and to his continued postings.
