The Thomas Hunt Show

One host, one pandemic, and a live chat doing the work of a phone line. Mined from the archive, not from memory.

What the show was about

Keyword sweep across all 54 transcripts. A COVID-era news show in three acts: the crash desk of March is all virus and price; the June news desk adds the protests and the Fed; the autumn coda turns toward the election and the Supreme Court. Bitcoin is the constant — the title of nearly every summer episode carries the day’s price.
