Join the Whiskey Bench for a discussion about the SVB collapse. Kat and Stephen dive into fractional reserve banking, bonds, inflation, and alternatives to the current system.

What is Whiskey Bench?
Welcome to the Whiskey Bench, where we pair cocktails with conversation. Whether we’re diving deep into a meaty subject like the history of fascism or why monetary policy drives inflation, or just bringing you the highlights of a crazy news week, we aim to look past the simple answers and discuss the complexity of our wild world. So pull up a chair, pour yourself a drink, and join us on the Whiskey Bench.
