Customer Reviews
Econ goes rap!
The videos tell two opposing economic ideas Austrian/classical vs Keynesian in a very entertaining way. The video is catchy and entertaining while still having so much information and accuracy.

Very cleverly written, as well as catchy, music followed by good explanation. I'm all in with these guys.
