Peak toxic male mediocrity
Oh my lord Felix Salmon… first of all Elizabeth Spiers is a truly legendary New York journalist, and she is one the star in this review. Please put her in charge of this podcast immediately. Felix, on the other hand, is a proud know-nothing who is in love with the sound of his own musings. I am always flattened at his ability to just guess (!!!) at why something might be the way it is — without bothering to Google it or say ask an expert on the show to talk about it. The number of times I have caught him being flat out wrong is just… Stupefying. Stupid-ifying. No matter the topic, he contributes all the insight of a guy who’s read half an article on said topic on the toilet. I write this review only to say Elisabeth: we see you. Sorry the patriarchy is still going strong.

Now, I hate financial shows with charts and market tracking/prognosticating, but this is none of that blather. This is about how the economy works (or doesn’t) its foibles, amusing weirdness and...Read full review »
