Can financial inclusion be achieved without a bank account or a digital money solution, such as crypto?
Host Michael Casey is solo on this episode of “Money Reimagined,” to speak with Brett Scott, journalist, financial hacker, activist, and author of ‘Cloud Money: Cash, Cards, Crypto and the War for Our Wallets.’
According to Scott’s thesis, digitizing money is putting humanity at risk. He argues that cash, with its unique capacity to preserve privacy and avoid central surveillance, is an important escape valve for societies to sustain their freedom. And while those concerns align with the views of many in the crypto community, Scott is not a big fan.
However, if crypto is to evolve, his perspective is an important one for people to absorb.
This is a must-listen episode.
This episode was produced and edited by Michele Musso with announcements by Adam B. Levine and our executive producer Jared Schwartz. Our theme song is “Shepard.”

Ukraine’s army has pushed Russian forces back in the south and east. We ask how they’ve managed to make such impressive gains so quickly, whether more could follow and what Russia’s reaction might be. Why Britain has such troubles building homes, power stations and really much of anything. And how Maine’s lobstermen are responding to the latest threat to their industry.

Last month, a 22 year old Kurdish Iranian woman, Mahsa Amini, was arrested in Tehran by the Islamic Republic's so-called morality police for not wearing her hijab correctly. Three days later, on September 16th, she died in their custody. Her death ignited a movement, as Iranians took to the streets across the country to demand change, women cutting off their hair in public and lighting their hijabs on fire. The protesters, many of whom are teenagers, have been chanting: “women, life, and freedom” and “death to the dictator.”
Perhaps no one has been a louder and more forceful voice for change in Iran than Masih Alinejad, a journalist and activist who has spent her entire adult life fighting for human rights in Iran and exposing the regime’s brutality. For this, she has paid a heavy price. The regime has accused her of being a spy for western governments. They’ve targeted her family – they arrested her brother, interrogated her mother, and forced her sister to denounce her on state television. And most recently, they tried to kill her on American soil. She has been living in a safe house ever since.
None of this has deterred her. As she wrote last month, “I am not fearful of dying, because I know what I am living for.” Today, guest host Mary Katharine Ham talks to Masih about all of this – the young woman’s death that sparked the protests, what the U.S. should do to support the protests, whether or not this could really be the beginning of the end of the Islamic Republic, and why the Iranian regime wants Masih dead.

For most of human history, if you wanted something, you had to make it yourself or know the person who made it.
Eventually, merchants began to sell more and more goods in one store to make it convenient for consumers.
These stores reached their zenith with enormous structures which sold almost everything. They were not just innovations themselves, but they were an engine for innovations which are still with us today.
Learn more about the rise and fall of department stores on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
