Welcome to The Buck Starts Here

History’s hottest takes with a side of economic edge.

Hold onto your hats, history nerds and econ geeks - The Buck Starts Here is not your high school textbook’s take on U.S. presidents. We’re serving sharp analysis, juicy stories, and just enough cliometric spice to make the Founding Fathers sweat.

Hosted by an economist who lives for untold stories and a history fan along for the ride (mostly to keep Eric from going full rant) we dig into the power plays, policy pivots, and WTF-worthy moments that shaped the American presidency. No myth-polishing here—just smart takes, bold opinions, and the receipts to back it all up.

Think of us as your go-to podcast for presidential history with personality, politics with punch, and data that actually tells a story. Whether you’re here for the scandals, the speeches, or the spreadsheets—subscribe now and get the unfiltered truth about the people who ran this country (sometimes straight into a ditch).

Smart, candid, and just the right amount of irreverent, The Buck Starts Here offers a fresh, engaging perspective on U.S. presidents. Subscribe now and start your journey through the history of America's leaders.
