In this week’s broadcast, he invites two NPR commentators to talk about the following:

1. How did it Round 2 of the financial crisis go down?

2. How are different sectors of the economy affected

3. What are credit default swaps and how did they exacerbate the financial crisis?

4. The mistake of not regulating credit default swaps

5. Is the $700B bailout bill a good or bad idea
