Rabona321. Å ta en Viking = Seriegull, fra Jotun F***ing ArenaUmiddelbart etter at dommerne blåste av kampene, satte vi oss i studio for å sende LIVE over Youtube. Ingenting var planlagt, og vi tok alt på sparket, hvor vi fikk med reaksjoner i Stavanger, Bodø, Bergen og andre steder med flere utegående reportere. Episoden ble spilt inn for å være LIVE og over video, men vi har prøvd å tilpasse lyden i etterkant slik at det kan gi en OK podcastopplevelse også, men de første 15minuttene er dårlige, da vi ikke hadde justert innstillingene.

Finance & HistoryFailing BanksWhy do banks fail? What are the characteristics of banks that fail? Are these consistently the same over the course of history? Emil Verner (MIT) says yes, there are some commonalities all US banks that failed in the last 160 years share; moreover he claims that bank failures are quite predictable. Why then don't we prevent most bank failures? Or shouldn't we after all?
Emil Verner (MIT) in conversation with Carmen Hofmann (eabh)

Policy PunchlineHealth Interventions Do Not Depress the Economy – Evidence from the 1918 Flu"What are the economic consequences of an influenza pandemic? And given the pandemic, what are the economic costs and benefits of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPI)?" In a recently published economics paper, Prof. Emil Verner and his co-authors find that cities that intervened earlier and more aggressively in the 1918 Spanish Flu did not perform worse and, if anything, grew faster after the pandemic was over. Their findings thus indicate that NPIs not only lower mortality; they may also mitigate the adverse economic consequences of a pandemic.
The paper is titled "Pandemics Depress the Economy, Public Health Interventions Do Not: Evidence from the 1918...
