Episode 23: An economist, his wife and 4 kids walk into a bank: Luke Tilley, Wilmington Trust

You might groan when you hear you’re about to listen to an economics presentation, but Chief Economist Luke Tilley of Wilmington Trust explains how working at the Philadelphia Fed and a premier financial institution has shown him that his peers may be funnier than you think. Luke shares how humor plays a surprising role in his day-to-day and discusses: 

• Why humor is so effective, disarming and humanizing when giving economics presentations. 
• Keeping it level-headed when the economy can sometimes feel impossible to predict. 
• Striking the right balance between a demanding profession and an equally demanding home life (hint: swim, bike and run)
