A Kick In The Jackson's Hole
Manage episode 436400933 series 2507859
In this episode, we kick things off by delving into the secluded world of Jackson Hole, where central bankers and economic elites gather in a remote Wyoming enclave, musing over the fate of global economies while casting their lines into serene rivers. It's a world of high-stakes policy decisions and economic riddles, wrapped in the calm of the American wilderness. But while these powerbrokers debate interest rates and inflation, we take a hard look at the other side of the global economic coin. In the Mediterranean, once-thriving wine and olive farms are now casualties of globalisation, with local agriculture outpriced by industrial farming giants from Northern Europe. Meanwhile, tourism, driven by cheap flights and the Airbnb boom, has transformed these rural communities into seasonal hotspots—leaving them deserted for much of the year. It's a clash of worlds, from the plush isolation of Jackson Hole to the abandoned farmlands of Southern Europe, as we explore the very real human costs of our modern global economy.
