Welcome to my first newsletter. My goal is to make economics understandable and fun, often using pop culture references. I create videos regularly for my YouTube channel and new videos will be featured here. I also occasionally write articles and I’ll share those as well, along with episodes of the Economics Happy Hour podcast that I co-host with Jadrian Wooten.
Since this is my first update newsletter, I’ll highlight two YouTube videos. First, in this video I discuss whether we should call what happened in 2022 a recession:
The second video is in honor of the 40th anniversary of Return of the Jedi’s release in theaters, which happened on May 25, 1983. As a 6 year old, I loved the movie, but naturally didn’t appreciate that several scenes highlighted economics lessons. Learn about them in this video.
That’s all for now, I’ll try to keep these short, educational, and fun. Please share with friends!
