Welcome to season 2, episode 9 of Modern Money Doughnuts (MMD), hosted by Steven Hail and Gabrielle Bond. MMD is an international show about modern monetary theory and ecological economics. This week, Steven and Gabie talk to Dr. Dirk Ehnts, the leading European modern monetary theorist. Dirk recently published a paper titled Modern Monetary Theory: The Right Compass for Decision-Making. We ask him about what motivated him to write this paper and about its content. (All episodes of Modern Money Donuts can be found on by Modern Money Labs.) Here's from which this audio comes from. (The audio is unedited.) MMD is hosted by Kerberos Media, and the audio podcast is, for now, hosted by Activist #MMT.
