Moody's Talks - Inside Economics

Welcome to Inside Economics. I'm Mark Zandi, the Chief Economist of Moody's Analytics. I'm joined by my two trusty co-hosts, Marisa DiNatale and Cris deRitis. Hi guys. Hey Mark. Hey Mark, good morning. That was a strong hello. Forceful. You know. Yeah. He's happy. Friday. Yeah. Very good. We've got a guest, guys. We've got Ethan Harris. Hi Ethan. Hi. How's it going, Mark? It's doing okay. I spent the... we were just talking before we came on that we were both at the New Jersey

shore. You were in Cape May and I was in Stone Harbor just up the coast a little bit. And you said you really liked the New Jersey beach. Yeah. You know, so I grew up in Massachusetts, but my dad had a aversion to going to Cape Cod because of the traffic jam at the bridge. Believe it or not, that was his argument. So we go to Cape May, which is, you know, like a hundred miles away. There's another bridge. Yeah. Right.

And, uh, like my, uh, my, um, grandfather had a, uh, Victorian down here and he also had bought other properties. So we'd have massive family gatherings in Cape May. And so I, I've been to Cape May since I was a little kid. Uh, it's still our go-to driving vacation. Um,

in my, we've now have, uh, a shared, uh, house with my, two of my brothers and, uh, with two, two blocks to the beach, you know, it's a tough life. Yeah. I love Cape May. Somebody's got to do it. Yeah. I love Cape May. It's similar. Uh, I, uh, around July 4th, I, four siblings, we each have three kids.
