The Indicator from Planet Money held a special, donor-only Zoom event dedicated to exploring the sheer weirdness of the current U.S. housing market. Adrian Ma and Wailin Wong, co-hosts of The Indicator from Planet Money, teamed up with Daryl Fairweather, chief economist of Redfin, to blow the lid off of questions like: How did we end up with a housing shortage in the first place? Is housing still (or will it ever be) a good investment? And what policies – if any! – might unlock the housing inventory held by baby boomers?
It’s precisely the sort of juicy, in-the-know dialogue you’ll only get to be part of if you support our work with NPR+. An excerpt of the session is here, available to everyone. But for the whole kit and kaboodle (the entire event as a bonus podcast episode), you’ll have to join the NPR+ ranks –– because events, features, and bonuses just like this one come only to NPR+ supporters. So click here to get in the know! |

| “Touch of Grey” by the Grateful Dead
Despite having more than a dozen studio albums, thousands of live recordings you can find online and an impassioned fan culture that’s endured over six decades, the Grateful Dead have never quite been a mainstream band. But one song managed to break through to become a top-40 hit. How did it happen? And why?
NPR Music critic Ann Powers and editor Daoud Tyler-Ameen are joined by reporter (and Deadhead) Isabella Gomez Sarmiento to discuss “Touch of Grey” by the Grateful Dead, from 1987.

| Houston, We Have Another Problem!
It’s summer in our fair city and we’re all tele-not-working from Cape Cod for a few more weeks. Between lobster rolls Ray managed to sneak into the studio to talk to Andrew from Houston who got a great deal and bought himself an Aston Martin DB9 before he realized how much replacement parts were going to cost. Does TEMU sell aftermarket Aston Martin parts?
