After geeking-out about NASA’s DART mission, Carter explains what the Federal Reserve is, what tools is has at its disposal to manipulate the economy, and what’s behind the current “inflation” problem. He then answers a question from Discord about the healthcare system (and breast augmentation), and ends the show by reminding people of Unsafe Space’s new project, DropESG.com.
