Will AI Growth Save America’s Economy?

Live from Provo Airport—with monkeys, Bluey, and a travel-weary KP—this episode hits everything from family chaos to market clarity.

Inflation’s hotter than expected, GDP takes a dip, and Powell says “soon”… but does he mean it? Plus, crypto might finally count as reserves, oil prices drop post-ceasefire, and AI-driven coding could be the Fed’s productivity play.
