What if market crashes, recessions, and booms were driven less by numbers—and more by stories? In this fascinating episode, we dive into Narrative Economics with Nobel Prize–winning economist Robert Shiller. Shiller explores how contagious narratives—like the American Dream, automation anxiety, or housing bubbles—spread through society like viruses 🦠 and fundamentally shift economic behavior. From the Great Depression to the 2008 housing crash to today’s AI-driven future fears 🤖, we examine how collective beliefs and storytelling drive everything from consumption to stock market movements. Shiller argues that economic trends are often triggered by shifts in public perception, not just data. Discover why understanding economic psychology and social contagion is crucial to predicting financial crises—and how the stories we believe shape our lives, our policies, and our prosperity. 📉 This episode is for thinkers, economists, educators, and anyone curious about how viral narratives fuel financial reality. 🎧 Listen now to rethink what really drives markets—and what it means for your future. 🔗 Subscribe, follow, rate, and share to keep expanding minds.
