Giving Effectively, Giving Well ft. Buddy Shah

How can we understand which charities do the most good?  GiveWell's Managing Director Buddy Shah joins the show to discuss GiveWell's work and all the complications that come with trying to recommend the best charities in the world.  How does GiveWell consider problems like long term growth? What about hard to measure efforts like lobbying, or R&D? Does GiveWell's very mathematical approach ruin some of the spirit of charity?  And what can the effective altruist community do better in the future?  We discuss all this and more!
