Description

Welcome to Episode 101 of The Economy of Nothing — the first official episode of the podcast reboot, where we start building a universe from the basement up. Literally. Join hosts Mike Allen (aka Mr. Green) and Mike Bedont as they draft the blueprints for Mr. Green's man cave, dream up a parody of Wall Street inside a cartoon space truck, and argue over how much a Patreon tier should cost.

Also in this episode:

  • Is The Economy of Nothing a parody of Spaceballs or Star Wars? Yes.

  • Mr. Green's La-Z-Boy, red-blue 3D glasses, and whip wall.

  • "Don't date your boss's prostitute." (Life lessons from Wall Street.)

  • Visual Radio vs. Real Radio: what even is this show?

  • Patreon tiers, leaderboard schemes, and audience participation capitalism.

👽 Visual Radio is coming.
🍿 Let's all go to the man cave.
🎩 Mr. Green's hat is real.
💸 $150/month = immortality on the Founders Wall.
