The “R” Word & Summer Invites: Billionaire or Bust 7/25/22
The U.S. economy may see two consecutive quarters of GDP contraction, but the White House isn’t ready to call it a recession. Whatever we call it though, today’s economic and political environment has pushed Americans to an unhappy place; host of ‘The Art of Happiness’ podcast Arthur Brooks says, both sides of the aisle are to blame. Brooks, also a Harvard professor and contributor for The Atlantic, discusses the loss of faith in capitalism and in America herself, and whether we’ll ever get back to national satisfaction. Plus, we’re tracking billionaire social circles and scandals and an appeal to grown-ups from Disney+. In this episode: Arthur Brooks, @arthurbrooks Becky Quick @BeckyQuick Joe Kernen, @JoeSquawk Andrew Ross Sorkin, @Andrewrsorkin Klaire Odumody, @klairemarie
