One of 12 Fed presidents, he looks over our markets like Batman does.

And when the Fed raises or cuts interest rates like it's done a dozen times since the pandemic, Jack, Austin is actually one of the votes that made that happen.

Boom, he's got a Yale PhD, a MacArthur genius, worked at the White House after the 08 financial crisis.

And according to student surveys, he's the most popular professor at the Booth School of Business.

And just like Dick Butkus, he is leading Chicago's defense, Jack.

But instead of blitzes, Austin does beige books.

Besties, it's been said that this man has the mind of an economist, but the voice of a beer commercial.

Personally, he reminds us of a financially trained Ted Lasso.

So on today's show, we're going to hear where our economy is headed and what's up with all those interest rates.

And whether stagflation is a real boogeyman you should worry about or not.

We'll also learn what the Fed actually is from the president himself.

Yetis, we have with us the prince of policy, the maestro of the money supply, and the king of quantitative easing, Austin Goolsbee as president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of, should I do it in an accent again, Jack?

Go for it, Nick.

Chicago.

And today's interview with Austin is the best one yet.

Austin, great to have you with us.

That's the takeaway right there.

Austin, so, so great to have you with us.

You know,

Jack and I were driving a deep T-boy style to your background.
