57 分钟Hey, Macro Musing listeners, this is your host,
David Beckwourth and I have some exciting news for you.
I am launching a substack newsletter this week that is titled Macroeconomic Policy Nexus.
Yes, after a five year hiatus, I am returning to the world of blogging,
at least in its modern form, as a sob stack newsletter.
The newsletter will publish twice a week.
On Monday, the newsletter will highlight the podcast and bonus content related to the show.
On Thursday, the newsletter will report on news papers and topics that strike my fancy.
So if you cannot get enough of the podcast, its guests and myself, this is your chance for more.
So be sure to sign up.
Details are in the show notes.
Now on to the show.
Welcome to Macro Musings,
where each week we pull back the curtain and take a closer look at the most important macroeconomic issues of the past,
present and future.
I am your host, David Beckwourth,
a Senior researcher Research fellow with the Merkitis center at George Mason University,
and I'm glad you decided to join us.
Our guest today is Athanasios Orphanides.
Athanasios is a professor at MIT and a well known and seasoned veteran of the central banking world.
