Freakonomics on 20/20

April 13th, 2006 | Filed under Blog

Set your Tivo, DVR, PVR, VCR…or hey, just plop yourself down on the couch Friday night (4/19) to check out the Freakonomics guys for an hour long special on 20/20. If you haven’t read it, it is a great book that I got from my brother for Christmas and I finished in just a couple of days. Check out my review of the book here as well as the authors blog.

Hopefully they don’t water down their stuff to much for the standard 20/20 audience, but the fact that the show is devoting an hour to the topic should prove to be quite interesting.

Update: My parents called me saturday morning to the let me know they had watched the 20/20 special on the above book, and that they want me to bring it home so that they to can read it as well! Dubner and Levitt have definitley hit a home run with this book when even my parents want to read something about economics!
