On this episode of Heard Tell, we turn down the noise on economic headlines and the interwebs and talking head reaction to them, by asking our economist friend Dr. Stephen Popick to explain them so well even host Andrew can understand it. Why wages are what they are including the living wage and minimum wage debates, rent vs mortgage debate, why the housing crisis is also a political crisis, why inflation and high prices are and are not the same thing, why natural ups and downs of the economy are not compatible with politics and news cycles, and much more. All that and more on this episode of Heard Tell.
