mandatory listening for everyone

May 22, 2008

I finally finished listening to last week’s episode of This American Life and when I finished it I had two urges: (1) to bury some money in the backyard and (2) to force everyone I know to listen to it.

The podcast is all about the economic downturn and why the mortgage crisis became a problem for everyone and not just sucky for the people going through foreclosures.

It’s hard when listening to the podcast not to think about the last time banks made risky investments. Of course, I don’t see any banks closing or any Hoovervilles popping up around town, so I’m going to trust NPR with their relatively optimistic outlook.
