Show Notes
Our dear friend Matt Stonks joins us to talk about the whole GameStop thing. Matt helps us with some Markets 101 terminology, and then we talk about the politics of the r/WallStreetBets moment before we close with three different views of what it all means.
Matt has some corrections he wanted to issue and some extensive resources he wanted to provide all of which are in the bibliography. Emmet mentioned Matt Taibbi's take on all this, which Taibbi clarified a couple hours after recoring on Feb 6.
Closing Song: "Houseplants" by Squid.
