Media

I regularly blogged at IPE@UNC (2008-13), The Fair Jilt (2013-15), and Duck of Minerva (2014-18). I had an award-winning Twitter account (@whinecough) with several thousand followers, but I temporarily deactivated it and then Elon deleted it.

I am occasionally interviewed, such as this hour-long radio spot for Indiana Public Media on the 2021 debt-ceiling fight, and this 2021 television spot on WISH-TV Indianapolis on Trump’s 2nd Impeachment.

I have written a lot for non-academic audiences, often translating research findings to lay audiences and/or applying them to current events situations:
