Customer Reviews
Documentary is necessary
I love what you’re doing, everything this podcast does for and with the MMT community is wonderful. That being said enough is enough, WE NEED a documentary. People watch things in todays world, MMT theorists need to put out multiple docs NOW!!! I have been listening to this podcast since its beginning and have branched off to do my own studying as well. All my studying doesn’t help convince those that have been brainwashed into believing that conventional or classical economics, I am no expert and certainly wont be believed like an expert will. Not everyone listens to podcasts and barely anyone reads...However people watch movies/documentaries nonstop. You want to reach the vast majority of people like I want you to reach the vast majority of people. Just ask Marshall McLuhan we live in a world full of hot media and its getting hotter!!! Again I love what you’re doing, now do what is necessary for the message to be heard. I realize finding the money is coming out, but we need more and we needed it last year, LETS GO!!!!
Entertaining
Amusing, entertaining and informative, very well done Patrica and Christian
A wonderful podcast for basic understanding
For those wanting to learn MMT, and choose to listen over read, there is no better place to start than this.
