So let's begin if you would say your name and title.

I'm Richard Taylor.

I'm a professor at the Booth School of Business at the University of Chicago.

I see technically you're called the Charles R. Walgreens Distinguished Service Professor

of Behavioral Sciences, blah, blah, blah, is that accurate?

Walgreens?

Yeah, yeah, that's accurate.

But I didn't want to take up the whole podcast.

I understand.

That's my title.

I was curious, however, I guess it's an endowed chair or something, yeah, is that what that

is?

Yeah, in fact, it's a chair that has only been held by three people, all of whom have

won a certain prize.

Ah, interesting.

More important though, I want to note, as it's bestowed by the Walgreens family, does the

position come with a discount at Walgreens drug stores?

There is no discount that I've been informed of.

That said you and I guess the other two holders of said chair, well, you are about a million

plus dollars richer since you were last on the show because I understand that you went

out and won a Nobel Prize and that they give you some money with that.

Now that you mention that, I won that prize in spite of your best efforts to prevent it.
