  • What a Creative Way to Discover Story

    The “same name” is such a great hook to explore life and find the story - not knowing where it’s going to go - but finding it along the way. I’m on this journey with you, Jacob. Can’t wait to see where it goes.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Economist
Q: Why is the economy described as not equal to the stock market or GDP alone?
Because the economy is about how people actually live day-to-day—their incentives, jobs, wages, and housing—and the stock market and GDP are just indicators that can mislead if taken as the whole story; understanding the broader ecosystem helps reveal who benefits and who loses.
The Economist
Q: What are the core ideas the economist wants the audience to understand about scarcity and choices?
Scarcity is about not being able to have everything, so we must make trade-offs, and those trade-offs come with costs which we can analyze to have a real conversation about what we value and how we allocate resources.
