Inside Bureaucracy

Description:

How do the Red Taped bros tackle a classic academic tome on bureaucracy?

We have a simple three-step approach.

Step 1: Take an unplanned three-month sabbatical to get your head right.  

Step 2: Reach for your top-shelf scotch. 

Step 3: Attempt a serious conversation for approximately 20 minutes before traversing a downward spiral of somewhat pertinent pop-culture references.

This week we discuss Inside Bureaucracy by Anthony Downs.  22 minutes in, we drop our academic pretense and travel to Indiana, Westeros, and a faraway galaxy to trap, identify, and tag endangered bureaucrats—just in case you want to skip ahead to the usual drunken banter.

As always, you can reach on Twitter @RedTapedPodcast or drop us an email at redtaped@outlook.com.    

We are currently working on our reading list for 2019.  If you want us to cover a book, just leave a review on ITunes that includes the title and author… Quid pro quo, dear listener, quid pro quo…
