Money’s strange past and unsettled future
Jacob Goldstein, author of “Money: The True Story of a Made-up Thing” and host of the new podcast “What’s Your Problem?”, joins Cardiff to discuss the surprising origins of money, and why now is a great time to start a podcast about solving problems.
They discuss the relationship between money and democracy, ancient monetary experiments, the invention of the modern monetary system, trust and money, and where crypto fits into this curious history. Then they talk about Jacob’s new podcast, how problems get solved, and the nature of innovation.
