Welcome to the Bankster podcast, my name is Alexander Bagehot. On this podcast we dive into the intricate world of central banking! I summarize the latest news and events catching you up on all things Federal Reserve and monetary policy from around the world. Then I take a more in depth look into a historical event or person that helped shape what central banking is today.

On this episode we’ll talk about an experience that Marriner Eccles had as a banker in Utah before he became the 7th Chairman of the Federal Reserve.
