Martha Gimbel and Gopi Shah Goda were formerly economists within the White House Council of Economic Advisors, or CEA.
They look back on their time inside an important economic policymaking institution, telling Cardiff about:
- Their favorite projects
- Toughest assignments
- The relationship between CEA and other economic policymakers
- The difference between academia and policy work
- What they might change about it
- Common misconceptions about the work of economists
And Martha clears up a big misunderstanding about an infamous graph controversy. All this and more!
