  • Business News

    Great podcast that gives the news in a business like perspective. War on Iraq? Higher oil prices which could be inflationary. And countless other examples that teach you how the news affect you in your every day life.

  • Marketplace: Why Is the Latino Economy Missing From Your Coverage?

    Shame on American Public Media, Marketplace, and the entire APM ecosystem for continuing to contribute to the circumstances that made the ICE raids possible.

    It has been over a year since the raids began, and your individual and collective newsrooms still make Latinos largely invisible. Public radio and the broader media industry — including streamers and podcasts — have repeatedly chosen either to erase Latinos from the narrative or to generally portray them narrowly as criminals or victims.

  • Concierge medicine

    Love your show. As an ER doctor at an academic institution it was hard to listen to the conversation regarding concierge medicine allowing doctors to “practice medicine how it should be practiced”. Making medical care exclusive and behind a paywall is the opposite of how I believe medicine should be practiced and I think doctors making that decision should think deeply about the harm that they are causing to the healthcare system.
