Description

One welcome result of the Fed raising interest rates is that people are seeing higher income on their risk-free savings accounts. For some, that's helping counteract some of the worst aspects of inflation.

Plus: the deadly shooting in Colorado Springs.

And: a groundbreaking climate compensation fund for developing nations.

Guests: Axios' Matt Phillips and Andrew Freedman.
