http://modern-money-humanities.webflow.io Money on the Left

Hosted by Scott Ferguson, William Saas, and Maxximilian Seijo, the Money on the Left podcast mobilizes Modern Monetary Theory to reclaim money’s collective possibilities for leftist politics and culture, and to ultimately overcome the neoliberal catastrophe. Featuring conversations scholarly and political, close readings of texts, interviews and, occasionally, some fresh, hot-takes on current events. Follow us on Twitter at @moneyontheleft.
