Episodes
In this episode we discuss how the U.S. labor market is cooling — not collapsing. The Fed cut rates again, citing a softening jobs picture, but the data tell a more balanced story. We look at why layoffs at major companies don’t signal crisis, how AI will reshape (not erase) work, and why a post-pandemic equilibrium may finally be taking shape.
