Episode description

Donald Trump's latest move? Taking aim at the penny—finally addressing a pet peeve of mine and economists everywhere. Meanwhile, the NIH is slashing "indirect costs," which will hurt actual vital research. And in today's interview, Raphael S. Cohen of RAND joins to break down Israel's battlefield successes and whether Iran truly holds deterrence power in the region.
