Description
For our December episode, co-hosts Ted Stank and Tom Goldsby spoke with Marianne Wanamaker, dean of UT's Howard H. Baker Jr. School of Public Policy and Public Affairs and a professor of economics and public policy.
Wanamaker, who served as the chief domestic economist for the White House Council of Economic Advisors during the first Trump administration, is a recurring guest on the podcast and at meetings of the GSCI Advisory Board, where executives look to her for insights into the U.S. labor market.
In our final recording of 2024, she addressed the U.S. presidential election, the threat of tariffs and inflation, the negotiating tactics of president-elect Donald Trump, business relationships with Mexico and China, immigration, and much more.
The episode was recorded virtually on December 3, 2024.
