Nearly 40 years since the nation last saw comprehensive reform on the matter, the consensus is that America’s immigration system is sorely in need of updating to 21st-century realities. Reihan Salam, Manhattan Institute president and author of the book Melting Pot or Civil War?, joins Hoover senior fellows Niall Ferguson, John Cochrane, and H.R. McMaster to discuss a smarter approach to welcoming newcomers to America.

Every week, three of the Hoover Institution's most incisive minds gather for a freewheeling discussion that cuts through the noise. GoodFellows: Conversations on Economics, History & Geopolitics brings together senior fellows John Cochrane, Niall Ferguson, and H.R. McMaster. Their expertise spans financial markets, historical analysis, and international security, creating a unique dialogue that connects past patterns to present crises and future risks. You'll hear them grapple with the profound social shifts, economic pressures, and strategic realignments defining our era, moving beyond daily headlines to examine the deeper forces at play. This isn't a scripted presentation but a genuine conversation, often punctuated by thoughtful disagreement and unexpected connections. The result is a consistently engaging and substantive podcast that offers listeners a rare blend of scholarly depth and accessible discourse. Tune in for a weekly dose of clarity and long-view perspective on a world that feels perpetually in flux.
