104 - Why Everything Is Weird | Kyla Scanlon

Everything is weird right now, and Kyla Scanlon is here to tell us why. Kyla is an independent, Gen Z friendly, new age content creator with a fantastic newsletter and youtube channel. In addition, she is the BanklessHQ TikTok correspondent, dropping weekly recaps of the crypto world.

Stepping outside the crypto bubble, there is craziness in the real world. We explore whether inflation is destroying the economy, social unrest, why younger generations are unhappy, and everything happening IRL right now.

Are we approaching war with Russia? Is globalization reversing? Can supply chains be fixed? Hang out with us as Kyla distills these complicated topics into well researched, thoughtful commentary.
