The Great Depression and Now: Historian Rick Fair Shows Us The Parallels | Rik's Mind Podcast Ep 107
The parallels between now and the Great Depression are numerous. You’ve no doubt felt the pressure of inflation, rising food prices and the rampant corporate profiteering over the last year. Today economic historian Rick Fair joins us to help us to cut through the noise and figure out what’s going on by looking at what’s already happened.
Rick Fair is an economic historian and practicing attorney at law. He has practiced as a tax attorney for 6 years, primarily assisting clients with structuring high-net-worth business, estate, real estate, and tax transactions. Fair is licensed by the State Bar of Texas and a Circular 230 Attorney with the Internal Revenue Service.
Rick has also worked as an adjunct professor for approximately 10 years, holding a Masters of Arts in American History and primarily studying economic history, with a specific focus on the causes of the Great Depression. Fair has also studied the intersection of violence, race, and economics in late 19th, early 20th century Texas.
Additionally, Rick routinely studies and gives lectures on ghost lore, folklore, and its connection to society via economics, demographics, and geography. This area of interest has led Rick and his wife to begin a podcast called “Spooky Context.” In this podcast, they discuss common forms of folklore and ghost lore in the Southwest, while examining the stories under an academic lens.
