LIVE episode! To CBDC or not to CBDC, what was the question?

In this special episode of Fintech Daydreaming we were recording with a live audience for the very first time in our show's short history. To add to the excitement our fantastic guest Johanna Lybeck from Nordea gave us an economist perspective into central bank digital currencies and more. Did our hosts, Pål Krogdahl and Ville Sointu make it out of the live recording without major injuries? Did the audience in virtual attendance react to the attempted abysmal banking humor? All this and more in this week's episode.
