The Guardian released a podcast episode in which journalist Michael Lewis discussed his new book, Blockers, with host Nosheen Iqbal. According to The Guardian podcast listing, the book tracks the civil servants who stood up to Elon Musk's "department of government efficiency" as it tried to dismantle the US government.

The listing describes Lewis as the author of Moneyball and The Big Short. It says the episode is presented by Iqbal with Lewis, and that it was produced by Saskia Collette and others. The credit line is cut off in the summary, so the full production team cannot be confirmed from the listing.

According to The Guardian, the listing poses a question about what happens when Musk and a group of tech figures try to rip up the US government. The conversation centers on the officials who resisted that effort, as the listing presents it.

The Guardian's audio listing does not say which agencies, officials, or actions the book covers, nor does it describe the outcomes of the resistance it portrays. Those details are not available from the summary and would need to be confirmed from the book or the full episode.

The listing also does not indicate whether the episode includes interviews with the civil servants described in the book. It presents the episode as a conversation between Iqbal and Lewis about the book.

The Guardian's listing ends with an invitation for listeners to send comments and questions, and the summary is cut off before that message is complete.
