What Five UBI Episodes Actually Found (Full)
The best U.S. cash experiments still can't prove money durably improves health or child outcomes. Jerremy Alexander Newsome and Dave Conley spend five episodes chasing why, hearing from Ron Lynch that free cash is a chain, not a check, and from Chris Rimbal that money itself may vanish within 20 years. Dr. Conley and Dr. Rhodes weigh in last: cash helps, but isn't the answer either host hoped for. Jerremy pitches a Citizen Capital share system instead of a handout, and Dave argues the AI disruption they keep circling has already arrived.
