Every episode of Activist #MMT, in chronological order.

This post contains a list of every main episode of Activist #MMT, in chronological order. For all previews available exclusively to patrons, go here.

My goal for Activist #MMT, the podcast, is to balance academic concepts with personal stories, of how MMT changed average people and their thinking. When I interview academics, my very-first episode (or section) with them is generally their personal story. I also believe my interviews with activists give important perspective on how MMT is affecting and perceived by laypeople.

GO BACK TO ALL MMT RESOURCES Disclaimer: I have studied MMT since February of 2018. I'm not an economist or academic and I don't speak for the MMT project. The information in this post is my best understanding but I don't assert it to be perfectly accurate. In order to ensure accuracy, you should rely on the expert sources linked throughout.
