Show Notes
First: We ask a couple of public opinion experts how technology has made polling more convenient but less consistent - and what they see coming in 2018.
Then: Have you ever wondered who really owns that quaint craft beer you love? We investigate why large corporations often buy out their smaller, less-efficient competitors - and how limiting competition is bad news for both consumers and workers.
Finally: Economist John Quiggin tells us why he thinks generational labels like baby boomer and millennial are completely meaningless.
