Why subscribe?

If you’re into breaking down complex issues, calling out nonsense, and finding real ways to make an impact (without the jargon or the doom spiral), you’re in the right place.

Subscribe for (mostly) smart insights, a little humor, and the occasional reminder that economics isn’t just for economists.

Subscribers also get access to book club discussions and live chats. If that’s your thing, I’d love to have you join in!

Join the Community

Subscribe to Shana McDermott, PhD

A PhD economist ranting about policy, markets, and the forces shaping our future, including my own, as I navigate a career change. Plus, sharing ideas for action toward a better future, because sitting still feels worse than shouting into the void.
