  • Abysmal headlines

    I know this applies to the whole podcast, not specific episodes, but this is a bad apple that ruins the whole barrel. 'Debt ceiling crash will have few victims' is the title of 5/25/23. Listen to the podcast to hear that potential impacts are 'a recession' 'a 20% stock market decline' and who will it hurt 'everyone'

  • Content OK, Audio terrible!

    For a media org with the scope of these guys you’d think they could produce a weekly podcast that sounds better than a grade school musical.
