“Economics for Beginners!” would easily fly as an alternative name for the Planet Money podcast. When they’re not gossiping or discussing Hollywood’s Black List, they're mainly discussing the nitty-gritty of economics. For those that wonder what inflation, charts, graphs, tax rates, and government monetary policies mean for an American citizen, Planet Money is the podcast to get answers. Hosts Amanda Aronczyk, Mary Childs, Karen Duffin, Jacob Goldstein, Sarah Gonzalez, and Kenny Malone do the most in demystifying the most complex economics concepts for the average citizen.

This episode of Planet Money is so creative. It could've been a straightforward story about superhero IP, but instead they had fun with the format. There’s even a post-credits scene! Excited for the sequel.

Really great ep on the whole Sony vs. Marvel saga.
I learned this fact. Why is there always a new spider man movie?
🚨Spoiler🚨
Sony must release a new movie every 5 years or else they lose the IP.

Yes. Yes. YES. Printers are THE WORST. My own printer is the devil incarnate. An interesting look nonetheless on why they're so terrible - and a juicy lawsuit with HP.
