Good podcast. However, North Africa is African, not Arab. How do you say “comes from a north African Arab nation”. The religion happens to be Islam. It also happens to have lots of Arabs and Europeans that invaded / colonized but it remains African.

I respect Paula, and love most of her content, but she sounds so out of touch when she keeps referring to how the average consumer just doesn’t understand that the economy is “super strong” right now as she cites a bunch of government statistics. Like I understand that your portfolio is probably way up right now Paula, but the majority of Americans are making huge sacrifices to figure out how to put food on the table. I’m sorry that that matters more to working class people more than whatever this months “CPI” or reported “unemployment rate”
Is. Next time they can’t afford to buy their child a birthday cake, they should tell their child that the unemployment rate is historically low 😒
