Note: As you probably noticed, this episode is being released a week later than our usual schedule. Extensive traveling has made it difficult to schedule a guest interview while Garrett is on the road.

So we brought in Cardinal Institute's Jessi Troyan to do a deep dive with Garrett on the current state of the US economy.

Jessi Troyan is the Director of Policy and Research for the Cardinal Institute for West Virginia Policy. Jessi was raised in Pinch, WV, about 20 minutes outside Charleston. She received her Ph.D. in economics from George Mason University with her dissertation covering the political economy of mining reclamation.
