ORLY-EP0163 - Economic Pulse with Amber B. Screaming Geometrically

Welcome to ORLYRADIO #163a recorded Friday, August 25th, 2017 - where we dismantle the current events for your edutainment through mostly rational conversations that make you go ‘Oh Really’! I’m your host Andy Cowen with my usual suspects, Daniel Atherton, Amber Beisecker, and David OConnor.

We make mistakes. Please, if you find one, pause the podcast, and send us a note. orlyradiopodcast@gmail.com or phone it in 470-222-6759
