The economic picture seems bright - GDP and wages are up, unemployment is low, and inflation is falling. So why is public sentiment about the economy intensely negative? Will Stancil joins the podcast to discuss the 'vibecession'. We cover why economic indicators have divorced from consumer confidence, the role of social media in driving doom narratives, and the politics behind why everything feels so relentlessly negative.
