If you’re interested in applied macroeconomics, two A+ podcasts to stay on top of are JP Morgan’s Global Data Pod and GlobalData TS Lombard: Perkins vs Breamish (featuring Bluesky’s own @darioperkins.bsky.social). Both have quite adversarial pairings of colleagues batting around forecasts/data.

They are handling one of the key tariff appeals.
