Two renowned policymakers and economists explore macro policy, finance, and technology with rigor and brisk back-and-forth. Episodes thread together monetary policy, fiscal dynamics, global economics, and AI/tech strategy, often tying high-level concepts to real-world implications for households and businesses. Noteworthy is the pairing of a former regulator and a leading academic, whose divergent viewpoints foster nuanced debates on regulation, innovation, and geopolitical risk.
