We bring back my Greek chorus, my chat room mainstays Jeanne and Deborah to talk about books. It’s mainly Jeanne and Deborah discussing the books that meant so much to them growing up, and I throw in one or two for good measure. I’ll post my links first because there’s a ton of books. Read early, read often everyone.

Mike, Jay, and Trey open the show with a discussion of the federal government's economic response to the coronavirus pandemic - both the $2 trillion legislation passed by Congress and signed into law by President Trump as well as the Federal Reserve's multi-trillion dollar promise to do whatever it takes to keep the economy functioning. After that, they discuss President Trump's recent invocation of the Defense Production Act, focusing on how it may help areas most affected by coronavirus. Then they debate whether it's too soon to restart the economy, if President Trump is being irresponsible and ignoring his public health experts, and the often agonizing tradeoffs that have to be made in crises. *Recommendations* * * *Mike* suggests you check out (and comment on) The Reluctant Detective ( https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GTD0ovwqyL_kVUqk9KPFFFdloWvupr5wNE_qUn24fSE/edit?usp=sharing ) , his book in progress.
