Ep. 225 The Final Episode
mercredi 10 juin 2020 • Duration 55:29
On this final episode of Contra Krugman after nearly five years, we analyze Krugman's horrified response to state reopenings after the lockdowns.
Ep. 224 Krugman Bravely Comes Out Against Killing Workers
samedi 23 mai 2020 • Duration 42:26
With his usual magnanimity, Krugman declares that the epidemiologists have been completely accurate in their warnings during the pandemic, whereas those who want to reopen the economy are trying to kill workers. Tom and Bob beg to differ.
Ep. 215 Don't Worry About the Deficit!
dimanche 19 janvier 2020 • Duration 36:08
That's Krugman's message now. Interestingly, back in 2003 the very indicators he's now using to tell us not to worry were actually less pronounced, and yet back then he was warning of a "fiscal train wreck." In any case, today we discuss what the genuine problems with the deficit are, and why it makes perfect sense to be concerned about it.

Ep. 125 Is the Stock Market Telling Us Something?
vendredi 9 février 2018 • Duration 34:45
Krugman insists that "the stock market is not the economy," and that downturns in the stock market need not portend bad economic times. But he takes the opportunity of stock market volatility to evaluate the present condition of the economy and its prospects for growth.
We respond.
Ep. 124 Bitcoin Is Evil, and a Bubble, Says Krugman
vendredi 2 février 2018 • Duration 41:03
Krugman thinks Bitcoin serves no good purpose, except perhaps for people who are up to no good, and is powered by libertarian fantasies and paranoia. Bob and Tom have some fun banter on this one.
Ep. 123 We're Forgetting How Bad Previous Presidents Were
vendredi 26 janvier 2018 • Duration 30:54
Krugman complains about Trump again this week, and blames him for (among numerous other things) the loss of U.S. credibility abroad. We take a stroll down (recent) memory lane to add some perspective: there's plenty of presidential crappiness to go around.
Ep. 122 Varieties of Wrongness: The Different Kinds of Keynesianism
dimanche 21 janvier 2018 • Duration 38:51
This week we bypass Krugman's columns to discuss the different schools of Keynesianism, how and when they emerged, and what their differences are.
Ep. 121 We've Never Had a President Who.... Oh, Really?
vendredi 12 janvier 2018 • Duration 36:48
Krugman hits a bunch of themes in this one, among them Alexander Hamilton, Russiagate, and the claim that no president ever acted on the desire to imprison his opponents. We restore a bit of perspective by glancing back at American history.
Ep. 120 Krugman Tries to Explain Away the 2017 Economy
mercredi 10 janvier 2018 • Duration 31:32
Immediately after the 2016 election, Krugman predicted markets would "never" recover, but after a strong 2017, Krugman is suddenly reminded that presidents don't have much influence over the economy after all. But if we should need more stimulus, he says, we'll be sorry we don't have a Keynesian in office.
Ep. 119 Is Bitcoin More Evil Than Krugman?
dimanche 31 décembre 2017 • Duration 53:31
In this episode, Bob once again flies solo, burdening the listeners with his odd sense of humor. But along the way, he tackles Krugman's objections to Bitcoin, and also discusses the relevance of Mises' regression theorem to the cryptocurrency.
