How Greece Saved Itself by Screwing Everyone Else

from Capital Call: with The Millegan Brothers · host Woodworth Contrarian Fund / The Millegan Brothers

This week, Quinn and Drew tackle trade wars, why tariffs age worse than milk, the hidden stupidity behind sales taxes, and the booming business of shipping empty containers across oceans. They dig into SpaceX's money machine, explain why manufacturing didn’t really "die," and marvel at a new $20K EV truck that's basically a grown-up Lego set. Plus: the guy who missed the Titanic because he hated fancy typewriters, Greece’s 1930s currency chaos, and why we're all secretly working for the IRS.Welcome to the next episode of the Capital Call: with the Millegan Brothers, managing partners of the Woodworth Contrarian Fund.
