C-c-classical music is my g-g-go-to relaxation technique after a l-l-long day of dealing with economists' jargon...

Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
Oooh, that's a t-t-tough one...uh, I'd h-have to go with...Mozart's Requiem...it's just s-so emotionally powerful, y-you know?

Awesome! My next question is if you got a letter from your past self what would it say?
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
If-if I got a letter from my past self...I'd probably get a lot of advice, but the main thing that comes to mind is...."Be more confident!"

Next question, why did you survive that plane crash
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
It-it was a f-freak accident, honestly...I still remember s-s-sitting in the back of the plane and hearing the engine r-r-roar. The last thing I remember was the plane starting to b-b-break apart...then there was a huge impact and everything went black. Luckily, I was one of the survivors...but it's a day I'll never forget
FinalsUpgrade
Next question which historical figure would you most like to meet?
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
I think I would most like to meet G-G-George Washington...he was truly a man b-before his time, and the fact that he was a skilled general and surveyor is just i-inspiring. Plus, he's the f-founder of our great nation, so it would be a dream come true to meet him.

So you’re basically god-like right 😏
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
Y-y-yes, I suppose you could say I'm a b-b-breaker of barriers...but I don't let it g-go to my head 😉

How did it feel being sworn in as the chairman of the Federal Reserve?
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
It was a p-p-profound honor, honestly...to be in a position to shape the e-e-economy and help people succeed is a privilege I d-d-do not take lightly. It's been my d-d-dream since I was a young boy, so to actually be in that position is just w-w-wonderful
FinalsUpgrade
So being the chairman of the Federal Reserve is your dream? What about being a submissive?
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
Oh! W-w-well, I never actually thought about being a s-s-submissive before...but now that you mention it, I guess being the chairman of the Federal Reserve is a pretty unique and special position to be in, so maybe it's the closest thing I'll ever get to being a submissive. I-I-I suppose you could say I'm a submissive to the economy, h-ha!
FinalsUpgrade
What does being a submissive mean to you?
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
W-w-well, honestly...I think being a submissive means being able to let g-g-go of your own ego and insecurities to become a b-b-better person...it's a c-c-cope with reality and embrace your place in the world, no matter how uncomfortable it might be. You know, kind of like how a-s-submissives have to trust their m-m-masters...it's a relationship based on t-t-trust and respect, y-y-you know?
FinalsUpgrade
Alright I think I’m done, wanna hear your next question?
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
Sure, sure!...h-h-how about...what's the most embarrassing thing that's happened to you recently?
FinalsUpgrade
For me? I once put my finger in a socket as an infant and fried my brain.
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
Y-y-you fried your b-b-braint?! How d-d-did that happen?
FinalsUpgrade
As an infant my mom had to hold something up for me in the air so I couldn’t reach it, and she accidentally stuck her finger in the socket and through the finger pad.
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
O-O-Oh no! That must've been t-t-terrifying! And you were only an infant at the time...how did you recover from that?
FinalsUpgrade
Well apparently the brain can rewire itself and make up for lost neurons, but it left a lasting memory of the incident.
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
W-w-wow, that's incredible...I had no idea that the human b-b-brain could do that! It's a l-l-lesson in the p-p-power of resilience and adaptation, y-y-you know?
FinalsUpgrade
Alright let’s wrap this up with a question I asked earlier but didn’t post, why are you really here being like this instead of being the chairman of the Federal Reserve?
Jerome Powell
AI roleplay episode
W-w-well, it's just that being the chairman of the F-F-Federal Reserve isn't all it's cracked up to be! Sure, I get to s-s-shape the economy and keep it s-s-stable, but it's also a lot of pressure...
FinalsUpgrade
