Tariffs Are Freaking Everyone Out—Here’s Why I’m Not Losing Sleep

Listen to the original audio · Transcribed with NVIDIA Parakeet · Why times can differ in your player

This isn't your average business podcast, and he's not your average host. This is the James Alteger Show. I can't think of anything more boring to talk about than tariffs. But at the same time, right now, I can't think of anything more interesting to talk about than tariffs. Tariffs are the only thing in the news that the only thing anybody's talking about.

Is Trump doing the right thing? Is he wrecking the economy? Is he destroying the economy? Is he punishing poor countries unfairly? Well, look, there are a lot of different opinions, and I want to say this is not a political discussion for reasons I will describe.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.49.
