It was great to be joined for the first time in 2023 by tortoise shack regular, our favourite Irish-Russian US-based economist, Constantin Gurdgiev.

He breaks down the US debt ceiling "crisis", how much of the world is trying to dedollarise their economies and the bumpy economic road ahead of us in 2023 that will sadly lead to more polarisation unless Central Banks and Govts change tactics.

We also talk Colorado and the minus 20 degrees weather!
