Episode 19: GMEing the System

This is a shorter episode than normal, I've been preparing a mutlipart episode for the last several weeks, so here's a something to tide you over until then!   In this episode I take a look at the interesting situation evolving around the GME (GameStop) stock and the role of internet communities like /r/wallstreetbets and major Hedge Funds like Melvin Capital and Citadel. Small investors are driving a surge in GME share value, hitting many bourgeoisie investor groups right where it hurts, but is the story as simple as that? Some guy did save his dog though, which is a win in my books either way. CALL OUT FOR GUESTS - Contact me if you know someone or yourself want to be a guest on the Pod.
