Description

Jessica Yellin ​talks to Austan Goolsbee to help you understand what’s causing today’s inflation, what role the stressed ​supply chain plays in driving it, and what if anything the government can do to fight it. Goolsbee explains there’s a debate among economists, and if the government picks the wrong side we could be in for a very long and bumpy ride. We’re just not sure which side is wrong! 
Goolsbee is a Professor of Economics at the University of Chicago’s Booth School of Business. He ​served in the White House as ​a member of the Obama Cabinet, ​was ​the chief economist for the President’s Economic Recovery Advisory Board and the chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers.Austan Goolsbee:Twitter: twitter.com/Austan_GoolsbeeNY Times Articlehttps://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/06/business/coronavirus-economy-us-china.htmlYou can follow Jessica Yellin here:Instagram: instagram.com/jessicayellin​Twitter: twitter.com/jessicayellinWebsite: NewsNotNoise.comNewsletter: newsnotnoise.bulletin.comSupport this work:patreon.com/NewsNotNoiseJessica Yellin is the founder of News Not Noise, a channel dedicated to giving you news with real experts and providing information, not a panic attack.

I’m Jessica Yellin, the founder of News Not Noise. For years, I worked in network news at ABC, MSNBC, and CNN, where I was the Chief White House Correspondent. I’ve reported from around the world and won awards.The more years I got under my belt as a reporter, the more I became convinced that the news doesn't speak to a large part of the audience.In the summer of 2018, I did something different. The midterm elections were approaching and friends asked me to explain what the heck was happening in the political cycle.So, I picked up my phone and began posting short, daily explainer videos on Instagram. What started with me and a ring light is now a small team, dedicated to giving you news in a different voice. We aim to provide facts, not panic attacks. We interview real experts — not pundits. My goal is to provide the understanding you need to engage in the conversation and take action in the world.
