Every book Stephen J. Shaw recommended on podcasts
Across 2 podcasts. Every show Stephen J. Shaw appears on, in one place — not just one.
Stephen J. Shaw appeared on several podcasts, including Modern Wisdom and The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast, to discuss population trends, birth rates, and historical perspectives on demographics. Across multiple appearances, Shaw repeatedly discussed Paul R. Ehrlich's book The Population Bomb. He mentioned that Ehrlich suggested people should be locked up if they have more than two children in America, noting that clips of Ehrlich expressing those views appear in a documentary. Shaw also discussed how Ehrlich set up an organization based on the book's themes called ZPG, which later evolved into Zero Population Growth. Furthermore, Shaw brought up the book to examine historical concerns regarding overpopulation and how those past predictions compare to current global birth rate trends and population collapse discussions. Throughout his podcast appearances, Shaw used Ehrlich's work as a primary reference point to critique past anti-natalist ideologies and examine their lasting institutional impacts.
