Job retraining and the brain, DC dining, and Robinhood's sports bet

Podcast cover

The Indicator from Planet Money

This episode of The Indicator from Planet Money features three co-hosts discussing three indicators: a study showing that retraining injured workers in Denmark reduced depression rates in both the workers and their spouses (though it also correlated with increased separation rates); a significant drop in Washington, D.C. restaurant diners, potentially due to political events or the absence of Restaurant Week; and the launch of Robinhood's prediction market for sports betting, raising questions about its legality and the potential for financial risk. The hosts analyze the data, offer different perspectives, and engage in light-hearted banter throughout the discussion.
