The Tradeoff with Mattie Duppler
The Tab No One Is Picking Up
The national debt just hit $31 trillion—but what does that actually mean for your wallet?In this episode of The Tradeoff, Mattie breaks down why the federal debt and deficit aren't just abstract numbers for economists to worry about. Using the CBO's latest report, she explains how America's spending habits compare to rest of us who are budgeting and making sacrifices just to get by (spoiler: despite being 250 years old and having a near-stellar credit history, no bank would approve the US for a mortgage today).You'll learn:The difference between debt and deficit—and...

The Overwhelm Trap: Why You’re Exhausted and How to Reclaim Your Spark (Ep. 13)
If someone asked you how you’re doing today and you answered, “I’m fine,” with a fake smile, while quietly screaming inside that you are exhausted, overwhelmed, and barely holding it together … yeh, this episode is for you.In Episode 13 of The Joy Unleashed Project, Mattie names what so many women over 45 are experiencing but rarely say out loud: chronic overwhelm. Not the occasional busy week, but the kind of constant heaviness that makes even small tasks feel harder than they used to.And here’s the most important thing to hear right away. This isn’t h...

Tech Stocks Are Tanking. Here's What the Market Knows That You Don't
The NASDAQ had its worst week since Liberation Day, dropping nearly 2%. But the real story isn't the meltdown—it's what it reveals about who actually wins and loses in the AI revolution. In this episode, Mattie Duppler explains why investors are suddenly skeptical of Big Tech's hundreds of billions in AI spending, why software-as-a-service companies are facing an existential crisis, and how AI's democratization of coding is creating victims across the entire economy—not just in tech.Learn the difference between companies spending on AI (the MAG-7) versus those delivering AI products consumers actually use (Open...

The Tradeoff: A New Way to Read the Economy
In this episode of The Tradeoff, Mattie debuts a new recurring segment, The Duppler Radar, designed to help listeners understand whether key economic trends are moving toward or away from their wallets.Originally scheduled to break down the latest JOLTS report, this episode pivots after another government shutdown delays critical labor market data. Instead, Mattie walks through three major economic indicators released over the past two weeks: GDP growth, the U.S. trade deficit, and labor productivity.The episode unpacks why third-quarter GDP posted a strong 4.4 percent annualized growth rate, how tariff uncertainty and distorted...

The Tradeoff: The Fed’s Most Important Decision Was Doing Nothing
The Federal Reserve just announced it’s holding interest rates steady. No hike. No cut. Just a pause. But is “doing nothing” actually good news?In this episode of The Tradeoff, Mattie Duppler breaks down what the Fed’s decision not to change rates really tells us about the economy, the labor market, and what households should expect in 2026. Rather than focusing on the headline itself, Mattie walks listeners through why markets respond to Federal Reserve decisions and how to read the central bank’s signals when rates don’t move at all.You’ll learn how to t...

The Tradeoff: Can You Really Defund ICE?
Can Congress actually stop ICE’s behavior by defunding it — or is that just a political mirage?In this episode of The Tradeoff, Mattie Duppler breaks down the high-stakes spending fight over U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement funding and explains why federal budget battles rarely deliver the policy outcomes politicians promise. Against the backdrop of escalating ICE activity in Minnesota and an imminent government shutdown, Mattie walks listeners through how federal budgeting and appropriations really work — and where the “defund” strategy runs into hard structural limits.Drawing on her experience of sitting at the app...

The Tradeoff: Why One Fed Seat Could Define an Entire Presidency
What looks like a legal fight over the Federal Reserve is actually a referendum on how much power any president really has.In this episode of The Tradeoff, Mattie Duppler breaks down why the administration’s clash with the Fed at Supreme Court of the United States isn’t just about interest rates or one central banker. It’s about whether any independent agency can remain independent, and how many real policy votes President Donald Trump will control for the rest of his presidency.At the center of it all is the structure of the Federa...

The Tradeoff: How A Fight Over Greenland Hits Your Wallet
A fight over Greenland sounds like a foreign policy sideshow. It isn’t.In this episode of The Tradeoff, Mattie Duppler explains how the president’s tariff threats tied to Greenland triggered warnings from Europe about dumping U.S. bonds—and why that matters far beyond diplomatic posturing. When allies start talking about Treasuries, markets listen. And when markets listen, interest rates move.This episode breaks down how bond markets translate political threats into higher borrowing costs, why Europe’s leverage runs through U.S. debt, and how rising interest rates quietly hit househol...

The Tradeoff in the Administration's Inquiry into the Federal Reserve
In this episode, Mattie gives you fast context on why the Trump administration’s move to launch a criminal inquiry tied to renovations at the Federal Reserve is less about construction costs and more about pressure on interest rates. At the center of the story is Jerome Powell, the independence of the Federal Reserve, and a White House increasingly frustrated with monetary policy it cannot directly control.The episode explains why central bank independence is critical for market confidence, inflation expectations, and long-term economic stability, and why even the perception of political interference can raise borrowing co...

Job growth heading into 2025 is running well below levels seen in past economic expansions, even as unemployment remains low.In this episode, Mattie Duppler breaks down why the slowdown isn’t a sign of sudden weakness, but the result of three forces reshaping the labor market at the same time.
