The Age of Greenspan, with Rick Perlstein - 393
from Left Anchor · host Ryan Cooper & Alexi the Greek
Today we've got noted author and historian Rick Perlstein on to discuss the late Alan Greenspan's 20-year reign as the chair of the Federal Reserve, the damage he did to the American working class and New Deal financial regulations, and what that says about the history of the 1990s and 2000s. Then we turn to what the rise of bareknuckle boxing has to say about MAGA's particularly chintzy and gross brand of fascism. Enjoy! Check out Rick's newsletter here, and his books here.
