Description


Some economists have been warning of an imminent recession in the United States for over a year now. But so far, it has yet to strike. We’ll get into the different ways economists are thinking about how a so-called recession might play out. Also, humans are having a profound, literally axis-shifting impact on Planet Earth. And, how company crackdowns on sharing memberships hurt single people.

Here’s everything we talked about today:




“Something Was Messing With Earth’s Axis. The Answer Has to Do With Us.” from The New York Times







“Is it a ‘richcession’? Or a ‘rolling recession’? Or maybe no recession at all?” from AP News







“Costco cracking down on membership sharing at self-checkout” from Axios







“South Koreans become a year or two younger as traditional way of counting age scrapped” from Reuters







President Joe Biden claps back at Sen. Tommy Tuberville in a tweet.
