Podcasts about Financial crisis

You weren't worried about your portfolio at breakfast. Then you check your phone and see recession warnings, tariff headlines, Federal Reserve predictions, and market experts declaring that "this time is different."In this episode of A Wiser Retirement® Podcast, we discuss why reacting to headlines can lead investors away from their long-term financial goals. Drawing on decades of experience through events like the 2008 Financial Crisis, the COVID-19 market downturn, and the inflation-driven volatility of 2022, we explain why discipline, planning, and perspective often matter more than predictions.Related Podcast Episodes: Ep 284.

In Wild Tides: Media Infrastructure and Financial Crisis in Ireland (Duke University Press, 2026), Patrick Brodie maps the shifting fortunes of the Irish economy before the 2008 financial crisis up to 2020, outlining how the Irish state moved from rampant and irresponsible financialized development to incentivizing private media infrastructure and policy as instruments for economic recovery. Brodie contends that while the Irish state's investment in creative and technological sectors of media was supposed to bring resources back into the country and stabilize the economy, it instead rendered the country even more vulnerable to future instability and transferred wealth into the hands of multinational corporations. Through ethnographic work and close engagement with the Irish state's policy and planning across a number of key media infrastructure sites, Brodie unfolds the very real environmental and social impacts of Ireland's naturalized model of financialized, foreign direct investment-led infrastructural development. Richly researched and comprehensively argued, Wild Tides reveals the multifarious, unexpected ways that financialization reaches into the daily life of a nation. Learn more about your ad choices.

As Jefferson Public Radio reported, the  Southern Oregon University Board of Trustees voted unanimously last Friday to create its own plan for long-term financial stability rather than adopt entirely the steep cuts and revenue-raising measures the consulting firm Deloitte has recommended. SOU is facing a deficit of more than $12 million which is expected to grow to nearly $17 million by 2030.    SOU has until next month to adopt a financial stability plan in order to receive $15 million in emergency funding approved by Oregon lawmakers in March. Deloitte’s plan calls for cutting four academic programs, including music and creative writing, and reconfiguring or consolidating nine other programs in subjects like Native American studies and philosophy.   This is the latest financial emergency the university has faced in recent years it’s attempted to address through workforce and academic cuts. Last September, for example, the SOU Board of Trustees approved a plan to slash more than $10 million over four years by eliminating more than 20 academic majors and minors. SOU President Rick Bailey joins us for a perspective, along with Sage TeBeest, a creative arts program assistant at SOU and the president of SEIU 503 Sublocal 84, which represents classified staff at the university.

David Haber speaks with Lloyd Blankfein, former CEO of Goldman Sachs, about leadership, risk, and navigating moments of extreme uncertainty. Drawing on his experience leading Goldman through the financial crisis, Blankfein shares how organizations can build resilience, make decisions under pressure, and maintain culture while scaling. They discuss the importance of risk management as both a discipline and a mindset, the difference between being wrong and being reckless, and how great organizations balance taking risk with protecting against it. Blankfein also reflects on Goldman's partnership culture, how it shaped decision-making and accountability, and what it takes to build enduring institutions over time. The conversation also touches on technology, from the role it played in transforming financial markets to the implications of AI today, including its potential, risks, and the challenges of operating in systems that are increasingly complex and harder to fully understand.   Resources: Follow Lloyd on X: https://x.com/lloydblankfein Follow David Haber on X: https://x.com/dhaber Stay Updated:Find a16z on YouTube: YouTubeFind a16z on XFind a16z on LinkedInListen to the a16z Show on SpotifyListen to the a16z Show on Apple PodcastsFollow our host: https://twitter.com/eriktorenberg Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

A currency becomes “internationalized” when it is widely used beyond its home economy for trade, financial transactions, and as a store of value. Achieving that status can lower transaction costs and exchange rate risks, while also enhancing the issuing country's geopolitical influence. Today, the global financial system remains overwhelmingly dollar-centric, with China's renminbi playing a comparatively modest role. Yet over the past decade, Beijing has taken steps to expand its global use, expanding offshore renminbi markets, establishing bilateral swap lines, and developing alternative payment infrastructure.  To help us unpack where China's renminbi internationalization efforts stand today, we are joined by Zongyuan Zoe Liu, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. Zoe's research centers on international political economy and global financial markets, with a focus on China and East Asia, as well as the Middle East. She is the author of Can BRICS De-dollarize the Global Financial System? and Sovereign Funds: How the Communist Party of China Finances Global Ambitions.   Timestamps:  [00:00] Introduction  [01:54] Strategic Motivations for Beijing  [04:55] Progress Report on RMB Internationalization  [08:16] Main Mechanisms Used to Promote the RMB  [11:08] RMB in the Belt and Road Initiative  [13:46] Using Clean Energy Supply Chains to Promote RMB in Key Commodities  [15:57] RMB as a Reserve Currency?  [21:23] Xi's Fourth Term Goals with the RMB  [27:26] How Global Conflicts Impact RMB Internationalization 

Chuck And Julie Show with Chuck Bonniwell and Julie Hayden Ron Hanks's Lawsuit challenging the State's semi open primary, proposal to suspend the federal gasoline tax CD3 candidate Ron Hanks files lawsuit challenging the State's semi open primary with alarming data on unaffiliated voters. Plus Trump puts Dems in a bind with his proposal to suspend the federal gasoline tax. This episode of The Chuck and Julie Show features CD3 candidate Ron Hanks discussing his primary challenge against Jeff Hurd and a landmark lawsuit targeting Colorado's semi-open primary system. The hosts also examine allegations of campaign finance fraud ("smurfing") and the severe financial instability currently facing the Colorado Republican Party. The CD3 Primary and the Challenge to Incumbency Ron Hanks details his recent performance at the CD3 assembly, where he successfully campaigned despite what he described as rule-bending by the committee to favor incumbent Jeff Hurd. Hanks notes that while Hurd was allowed to speak for 11 minutes despite a 3-minute limit, he was ultimately booed by the assembly and left through a side door. Hanks characterizes Hurd as "timid" and alleges that Hurd and Speaker Johnson pressured the Trump administration to rescind endorsements of other conservative candidates by threatening to "scuttle the America First agenda." Hanks maintains that CD3 must not be a "sacrificial lamb" for establishment Republicans who vote against Trump's tariffs or for protecting congressional misconduct. Legal Challenges to Colorado's Primary System A central theme of the discussion is the lawsuit filed by Hanks and other candidates to exclude unaffiliated voters from Republican primaries. Hanks argues that the current system violates the 14th Amendment and the right of private association by allowing non-members to decide party nominees. He presents data using "regressive methodology" showing that in Mesa County's 2024 primary, 10,000 of the 27,000 votes cast were from unaffiliated voters, significantly diluting the Republican base. The hosts express concern that the system is being "weaponized" to ensure establishment candidates win over grassroots conservatives. Financial Crisis and "Smurfing" Allegations The Colorado Republican Party is reportedly in a state of financial collapse, with approximately 400,000 in debt and only 12.55 in cash on hand. The hosts blame former leadership for "failure by design," citing excessive travel reimbursements and a lack of organized opposition to "jungle primaries." Additionally, the program highlights "smurfing" allegations against candidate Victor Marks. These claims suggest that Marks' campaign reported thousands of small donations from individuals who, when contacted, denied ever contributing to his campaign. Infrastructure and National Policy The episode concludes with a critique of Denver's Regional Transportation District (RTD). Chuck Boniwell notes that ridership has decreased by over 20%, yet the city continues to fund "bus rapid transit" projects that he argues are bankrupting the system. On a national level, the hosts praise Donald Trump's proposal to suspend the federal gas tax, viewing it as a strategic move to force Democrats into a difficult political position regarding inflation and taxpayer relief. The discussion underscores a deep divide between the Colorado Republican grassroots and the party establishment. With a critical court date approaching and the state party facing near-total insolvency, the outcome of the CD3 primary and the pending election lawsuit will likely determine the future trajectory of conservative politics in the state.

Tyler Goodspeed is the former chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors and is currently a chief economist in the private sector. In Tyler's first appearance on the podcast he discusses his new book highlighting a different way of looking at recessions, the challenge of breaking away from the human inclination of ascribing patterns to random phenomena, whether recessions are more Dorian Gray or Peter Pan, what history and stories like Jay Cooke tell us about recessions, how to evaluate supply side shocks and the 2008 Financial Crisis, why Milton Friedman's Plucking model might be the best we have at modeling recessions, and much more.

Auto parts supplier First Brands will retain 345 employees previously slated for layoffs at its TMD Tiffin facility in Ohio. The company announced in February that it would close the site and cut 407 workers on April 30. It now plans to keep 345 of them through May 31, with the remaining employees losing their jobs as scheduled.The February WARN notice listed impacted employees, which included press operators, production handlers, engineers, maintenance workers and quality control staff.First Brands said the postponement stems from ongoing attempts to sell certain U.S. facilities. These efforts followed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing in September 2025, when the company reported more than $10 billion in debt. In January, it launched a process to sell all or parts of the business, including brands such as Autolite spark plugs, Anco windshield wiper blades and FRAM filters.#manufacturing, #autoparts, #firstbrands, #layoffs, #bankruptcy, #accountingscandal, #fraud, #corporategovernance, #businessnews, #industrialnews, #supplychain, #workforce, #ohiojobs, #chapter11, #automotiveindustry, #financialcrisis, #industrynews, #marketnews, #operations, #restructuring

Chris, Saied and Rajeil dive headfirst into the weirdest corner of the modern economy, where the next Fed chair sounds like a political hostage negotiation, AI is either the greatest productivity boom in history or the most expensive layoff machine ever built, private credit is quietly turning banks into shadow-bank Uber drivers, and crypto keeps pretending it's financial freedom while throwing money at Washington. From Kevin Warsh and Fed independence to AI hype, corporate cost-cutting, Bitcoin mythology, Epstein-adjacent crypto lore, and the political machine behind digital assets, this episode asks the question nobody in power wants to answer: are we innovating our way into the future, or just putting better software on the same old greed machine?

The fundamentals of our economy are… present. Welcome to Remember Shuffle's ongoing multi-part series on the financial crisis of 2008 and the ensuing Great Recession. The Shuffle Bois begin with some table setting to explain  the complex financial instruments and deregulation that led to the crisis - mortgage backed securities, collateralized debt obligations, credit default swaps, and synthetic collateralized debt obligations - and introducing the rogues gallery of characters for this story. They then go beat-by-beat through the collapsing economy of 2008 and trace the decisions that were made by those running the banks as well as by those in power. They close, as always, with some themes and big ideas - including the separation of risk from incentive and the failures of neoliberal deregulation - before turning to the echoes in the culture, which are profound for this topic.Check out our website to search for episodes at: remembershuffle.comGive Remember Shuffle a follow on Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ And on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠@RememberShufflePod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to interact with the show between episodes.

Lloyd Blankfein is one of the most consequential figures in the history of American finance — a kid from the Brooklyn projects who climbed to the top of Goldman Sachs and steered the firm through the worst financial crisis of our lifetime. This is a conversation I've been looking forward to for a long time, so glad to share it with you all on Open Book. Lloyd Blankfein was Chairman and CEO of Goldman Sachs from 2006 to 2018. I spent the first seven years of my career at Goldman Sachs, and Lloyd was my boss and mentor. He was kind to me then, and he's been kind to me ever since. I greatly admire all he's done for me, and there aren't too many people I admire more than Lloyd. His book — in my opinion — should be considered the business book of the year. Go buy it, you will not regret it!

Private credit has ballooned to $3.5 trillion, redemptions are being halted at major firms, and this illiquidity could trigger the next financial crisis. What does this mean for the broader financial market, and where does gold fit in as private credit strains emerge?

#413 In this podcast episode, Guy talked with Mark Gober about his drive to understand the nature of reality, his view that society is pushed toward fear and division, and his framing of this as "spiritual war." Gober recounted his conventional path (Princeton, investment banking at UBS during the 2008 crisis, then a decade in intellectual property consulting) and how witnessing corruption, followed by a 2016 "dark night of the soul," led him into research on psychedelics, meditation, alternative health, and evidence for consciousness beyond the brain (e.g., near-death experiences, UVA perceptual studies, IONS). He described writing seven books (2018–2024), launching the "Where Is My Mind" podcast, leaving a partner role to pursue this work, and later expanding into politics/economics during COVID, arguing government structure violates spiritual principles and emphasizing discernment, inner work, intention, and his ibogaine intentions. About Mark: Mark Gober is the author of the "Upside Down" series of seven books—spanning the topics of consciousness, politics, economics, UFOs, medicine, cosmology, and more. His first book, "An End to Upside Down Thinking" (2018), won the IPPY award for best science book of the year and was endorsed by researchers with affiliations at Harvard, Princeton, UVA, and UCSF (among others). He then wrote "An End to Upside Down Living" (2020), "An End to Upside Down Liberty" (2021), "An End to Upside Down Contact" (2022), "An End to the Upside Down Reset" (2023), "An End to Upside Down Medicine" (2023); and "An End to the Upside Down Cosmos" (2024). Mark is also the host of the 8-episode podcast series "Where Is My Mind?", released in 2019, which explores the scientific evidence for telepathy, the afterlife, and more. Additionally, since 2019, he has served on the board of the Institute of Noetic Sciences. Previously, Mark was a partner at Sherpa Technology Group in Silicon Valley and worked as an investment banking analyst with UBS in New York. He has been named one of IAM's Strategy 300: The World's Leading Intellectual Property Strategists. Mark graduated magna cum laude from Princeton University, where he wrote an award-winning thesis on Daniel Kahneman's Nobel Prize–winning "Prospect Theory" and was elected a captain of Princeton's Division I tennis team.

Why are homes in Texas becoming increasingly unaffordable — and what will it actually take to fix it? In this episode of Texas Talks, host Brad Swail sits down with Sean Dobson, CEO of Amherst Group, to break down the real forces driving today's housing affordability crisis — and why many popular explanations fall short. Dobson, a veteran of the mortgage and housing markets who correctly anticipated the 2008 financial crisis, explains how today's challenges are rooted in a mix of monetary policy, supply constraints, and structural issues within housing finance — not just the surface-level narratives dominating political debate. A major focus of the conversation is how historically low interest rates during COVID dramatically increased buying power, pushing home prices up roughly 60% in just four years. At the same time, rising rates have now “locked in” homeowners, reducing supply and making it harder for new buyers to enter the market. Dobson also challenges several widely held assumptions, including the idea that institutional investors are the primary cause of high home prices. Instead, he argues that these investors often provide access to housing for families who cannot qualify for mortgages under today's stricter lending standards. The conversation also covers: • Why housing affordability is near historic lows • How interest rates drive home prices more than most people realize • The long-term impact of COVID-era monetary policy • Why low-rate mortgages are “locking” homeowners in place • The real role of institutional investors in the housing market • How Dodd-Frank reshaped mortgage access after 2008 • Why the 2008 crisis was driven by fraud — not “subprime borrowers” • The growing burden of property taxes and insurance costs • Why housing is ultimately a local — not national — issue • How zoning laws and regulations drive up construction costs • The hidden costs of design mandates like garages and lot requirements • Why modular construction and innovation struggle to scale • The tradeoffs between expanding credit access and managing risk Dobson also outlines potential solutions, emphasizing that increasing housing supply and allowing more flexibility in home design could significantly reduce costs. He points to recent efforts in Texas — including smaller lot sizes and accessory dwelling units — as steps in the right direction, while arguing that broader reforms may be needed at the state level. The episode closes with a clear takeaway: solving the housing crisis will require difficult tradeoffs, smarter policy, and a willingness to move beyond simplistic narratives about what's driving the problem. 00:00 — Intro + Sean Dobson joins Texas Talks 00:25 — Dobson's background and predicting the 2008 crisis 01:23 — What Amherst Group does in housing and finance 03:10 — Why mortgages are more complex than they seem 06:01 — The power of the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage 07:09 — Why housing affordability is near historic lows 08:32 — How low interest rates drove home price spikes 10:31 — Why homeowners are “locked in” by low rates 12:12 — Supply constraints and Texas vs other states 13:53 — Property taxes and their impact on affordability 17:02 — Insurance costs and hidden homeownership risks 19:15 — What actually drives construction costs 21:11 — How regulation increases home prices 23:08 — Why housing innovation is limited 25:04 — The role of AI and construction efficiency 27:48 — Institutional investors: myth vs reality 29:23 — Why many renters can't qualify for mortgages 31:08 — Dodd-Frank and tightening credit access 35:02 — What really caused the 2008 financial crisis 39:15 — Expanding credit vs risk of foreclosures 41:49 — What Texas can do to fix housing affordability 43:50 — Closing Watch Full-Length Interviews: https://www.youtube.com/@TexasTalks

State lawmakers have begun to discuss a bill to help address the financial crisis at HCMC. The Hennepin County hospital is the state's busiest trauma center. It's also a teaching hospital and part of the healthcare safety net. It treats patients regardless of insurance. The hospital faces a $50 million projected shortfall this year. It slashed programs and positions in January. But Hennepin County commissioners have said that without action from state lawmakers, the hospital could begin closing in June. Lawmakers have responded with a proposal to use sales tax money to help cover the hospital's costs. During a House taxes committee meeting Thursday, former patients and healthcare providers testified in support of the bill, including Dr. Tom Wyatt, the hospital's emergency medicine chair.Rep. Danny Nadeau, R-Rogers, is a co-author on the bill and he spoke with guest host Emily Bright about his legislation.

Is the United States on the verge of another financial crisis?

3. Facing Failure: The Slosh Problem and Financial Crisis Guest Eric Berger details the second and third Falcon 1 failures between 2007 and 2008. The second attempt reached space but failed to achieve orbit due to fuel "slosh" in the upper stage—a concern the team had notoriously omitted from their top-ten list. The third flight failed when the first stage collided with the second stage after separation. These failures occurred as the global economy collapsed and Musk's personal funds dwindled. Facing bankruptcy, Musk rallied his demoralized staff, granting them only six weeks to prepare a final, do-or-die fourth launch attempt. (3)1957

Hennepin Healthcare operates one of Minnesota's largest and most essential hospitals, HCMC, formerly known as Hennepin County Medical Center. And it's not in good health.The hospital provides emergency trauma and burn care to patients from across Minnesota and trains more than a third of the region's future doctors.But that mission comes at a cost. The public hospital serves more low-income and uninsured patients than other hospitals, leaving it especially vulnerable as federal Medicaid cuts take hold and the number of uninsured Minnesotans rises. Add in other mounting financial pressures, and leaders say the system is being pushed to the brink.HCMC has already eliminated 100 positions, reduced services and is now seeking sales tax revenue just to stay afloat.MPR News host Angela Davis talks with her guests about the financial crisis at HCMC, why other hospitals are also struggling and some possible solutions. Guests: Jan Malcolm was appointed by Gov. Tim Walz as his senior adviser on hospitals and health systems. She served as Minnesota's health commissioner under three governors, stepping down in 2023 after guiding the state's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. She previously served in executive positions at Allina Health and HealthPartners.Dr. Rahul Koranne is president and CEO of the Minnesota Hospital Association. He leads the organization in advocating for Minnesota's hospitals and health systems, focusing on sustainability, workforce challenges and community health. He previously served as the MHA's chief medical officer.

This episode was originally recorded in March 2025.  ​Today, we are breaking down the  global alternative asset manager, Apollo. I reflected on my personal experiences with Apollo for this episode, and there's a saying that hard work can beat talent when talent doesn't work hard. Well, Apollo has talent, and Apollo works really damn hard. They will do everything they can to protect their capital, so if you're on the other side of the table from them, you never feel fully comfortable. I am joined by Hunter Hopcroft, a financial analyst and writer based in New York.
