A Fascinating conversation with Dr. David Woo, author of his debut novel, Merry-Go-Round Broke Down: A Novel of Guilt, Greed & Globalization.

from The Danny and Park Novels Good News Podcast · host Jamie

Welcome back to the podcast, I’m Jamie Baynes. A few weeks ago, I got an email from a publicist asking if I’d like to interview Dr. David Woo, an economist, investment strategist, and former head of macro strategy at Bank of America. Oh, and he’d also just written a novel and lives in Israel. So was I interested? What I was was intimidated. I haven’t the slightest knowledge about economics or macro investments, though I am an avid reader. So I replied to her and told her that I’d absolutely be interested in talking to Dr. Woo, but to please let him know that my podcast is primarily about positivity and ask if he’d still like to be a guest. She replied that he sure would, and here he is.I hope you enjoy our conversation.After you listen, tell me what you think of Dr. Woo. Truth be told, before most of my episodes with new guests, I’m always a bit nervous making that call to connect with them for the interview. The nervousness was intensified with Dr. Woo because of my lack of knowledge about globalization, but within the first minute or so of the conversation, my nervousness disappeared because Dr. Woo is so friendly and down-to-earth. Plus, his novel sounds classically exciting, so I can’t wait to check it out.I’d like to thank Dr. Woo for taking the time out of his schedule to talk to me, and wish him the best of luck on his novel and any future Hollywood or Netflix deals that are just around the corner.Check out Dr. Woo's website here ⬇️⬇️⬇️https://www.davidwoounbound.com/And his YouTube page here ⬇️⬇️⬇️https://www.youtube.com/c/davidwoounboundAnd, as always, I’d like to thank you for listening, and I hope you continue to do so.Until next time, take care of one another, and thanks for listening.
