  • Only Trump—acolytes

    Just listen to 2 Trump advisors sell Trump’s Tariffs without any pushback. Disappointing from Bloomberg. I want to hear analysis not propaganda.

  • Unsubscribed After Rahm Episode

    This podcast started strong but has steadily gotten griftier and less qualified guests. After the Rahm Emanuel interview, this seems more about laundering failed politicians opinions more than speaking to the political moment.

    I’ve followed Stephanie Flanders since she was on BBC Newsnight (when it was a real, in-depth news program). A brilliant host asking searching questions of her guests.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How Fast Can the World Recover From a Hormuz Shock?
Q: What is the realistic timeline for the Strait of Hormuz to reopen, and how would that affect near-term oil prices?
The panel suggested a multi-stage recovery: a few days to weeks for a meaningful portion of production to return, with full normalization potentially stretching over months to a year, depending on demining, refinery repairs, and logistical constraints.
Is the US Economy Dangerously Dependent on the Rich?
Q: What is your final takeaway on whether this recovery is unusually vulnerable or fragile?
The recovery feels fragile and tenuous, with growth likely around 2 percent and multiple moving parts, especially asset-price sensitivity and consumer stress, contributing to a cautious outlook.
Is the US Economy Dangerously Dependent on the Rich?
Q: What should a Fed observer take away from this in terms of policy and macro data relevance?
The macro picture remains nuanced; first-order indicators are mixed, inflation dynamics complicate policy, and the distributional effects add a layer of uncertainty for forecasts.
Is the US Economy Dangerously Dependent on the Rich?
Q: Andrew, is the wage picture supporting the affordability debate, or are real wages lagging for many households?
Real wages have in some periods kept up with inflation, but for the bottom half they have shown stress recently, underscoring a split in affordability across the distribution.
Is the US Economy Dangerously Dependent on the Rich?
Q: Isn't this Trumponomics about a broader state of the world rather than endorsing a specific economic path?
Indeed, the discussion centers on how the economy evolves under current policies, with debate over data and methodology rather than advocating a single approach.
