Planet MoneyHomer Simpson Vs. The Economy

In our new season, @ Work, we explore some of the ways in which larger societal forces affect our expectations about work, from South Korea to Brazil. This episode by our friends at Planet Money dissects a recent The Simpsons episode where young Bart Simpson asks himself if he could have the same job opportunities his dad Homer had in 1989.

Women's WorkFood SovereigntyIn the Cheyenne River Sioux Reservation in South Dakota, a young woman called Kelsey Scott reimagines the family ranching business to bring food sovereignty to her tribal members. This is a beautiful, sound-rich episode about the purposes of hard work and the ways in which it can bond us to our ancestors and our communities.

Life KitHow To Thrive While Working In a Hybrid SetupA couple of months ago, curator Gregory Warner went back to NPR’s bureau in New York after more than two years of working remotely. It was a strange visit that left him wondering if he actually wanted to go back to the office at all. Well, the folks at Life Kit read my mind and prepared this helpful, practical episode for those of us wondering how to make the best of hybrid work now that it seems to be here to stay.

It's Been a MinuteEven Influencers Are Burning Out, Plus There's Nothing Boring About 'Normal Gossip'The first half of Rough Translation's new season focuses on the ways in which exhausted workers from Portugal to China are starting to say “no” to work. The first part of this episode from It’s Been A Minute sheds light on what young influencers can teach us about “following your passion,” burnout, and our changing relationship to work.

Rough TranslationLunching@Work: When Eating at Your Desk is ForbiddenEating At Your Desk Is Forbidden And hey, speaking of burnout…. How long are your lunch breaks? This last episode takes us straight to the bistros of Paris to learn more about the luxuriously long French Lunch Break. For those of us who bring our Tupperware to the office and eat at our desks – what are we missing?
