    This post is a list of my upcoming speaking engagements for the fall 2024 semester. Unless otherwise noted, all events are free and open to the public—and in person.  The listed times are those in the time zone where the event is being held.

    I will likely add additional events and information to this post, as they are scheduled. Indeed, two or three such events are already in the works.

    In the meantime if your university, think tank, research institute or other similar organization would like to invite me to speak (either virtually or in person) on any topic within my expertise, I am open for business! At this point, there are not many slots available this fall; but more are feasible in the spring 2025 semester. You can get an overview of the issues I write and speak about at my website .
