The Shiny Turd, A Look into DOGE and the Federal Reserve

Welcome back to A Guy's Perspective, where we cut through the noise and dig deep into the systems shaping our lives. Today’s episode takes a hard look at two powerful yet often opaque institutions: the Department of Government Efficiency and the Federal Reserve.

On the surface, one is tasked with streamlining bureaucracy and reducing waste, while the other holds the reins of the U.S. monetary system. But what happens when the drive for ‘efficiency’ collides with economic policy? Are we witnessing smart reform—or is there a deeper game being played behind the scenes?

We’ll unpack the origins, roles, and real-world impacts of both, and ask the questions the headlines tend to skip. So buckle up—because today, we’re following the money and the mandate.
