Jim Grant, economist and the Founder / Editor of Grant's Interest Rate Observer (financial magazine), has developed a CULT following among Wall Street financiers, investors, and economists. In this episode we discussed his view on Modern Monetary Theory and how it differs from Keynesian and Austrian Schools of Economics; Jim's take on COVID; the history of Grant's Interest Rate Observer, and Jim's life and career. NOTE: unfortunately the sound quality was not on par with the fantastic content that Jim provided.
