If stuff like current events and the finance world interest you, each story on Planet Money starts with a question. Recent episodes ask why Pokemon cards are growing faster than your retirement count. Questions about the war. Just like we talked about recently a lot on our program. From the job market to the stock market to prices at the supermarket, Planet Money explains it all. Planet Money is a different kind of world where the complex economy somehow makes sense, where human stories supersede abstract theories so can learn, laugh and be entertained. It's econ, but just down to earth. The hosts go to unusual lengths to explain the economy. They've published their own book to track the global supply chain. They've shot a satellite into space to understand the economics of the private space industry. They've gone inside a live book auction to show how ideas get to market. It's the kind of show where you learn something, probably laugh and walk away seeing the world a little differently. And I think if you like crypto 101, you'll enjoy planet Money. So maybe check that out. Follow NPR's Planet Money podcast and understand how money shapes the world. Crypto101fam we're back again to talk about my favorite online shopping and it is Quints. Lately I've just been more intentional what I wear every day. I've talked about it before the Florida heat, I got to be very intentional about my wardrobe and I'm leaning into pieces that feel easy, comfortable, but still put together. As the weather heats up in Florida, it just makes quite a getting dressed simpler. Quince has my go to the fabrics feel elevated, the fits are clean and everything just works. And I'm so busy on the podcast I just don't want to overthink it. Quinces all the wardrobe staples for spring. Think 100 European linen shorts and shirts from $34. Lightweight, breathable and comfortable, but still look put together and clean. 100 Pima cotton tees with a softness that has to be felt. Their Pants also hit the same balanced, relaxed and comfortable, but still polished enough to wear pretty much anywhere.

Federal rate Cut Decision Spectacular. We haven't gotten to do one in a couple Fed days because we've had a lot going on inside the community and traveling and in person stuff. It just didn't line up. But we're back for this one and as we should be joined by my friend Brian for Fed Chair Pal's last last rate decision last press conference unless something wild happens with the Kevin Warsh nomination, which seems to be originally, I think there was a lot of political polarization around that. It seems to be going forward a little bit more smoothly than most people thought. Obviously the current president administration has been at odds with Fed Chair Powell over the last year at least, so it kind of gave it maybe a little bit rocky politicization of the wars decision. But I think Warsh has had a good press conference, of course, with the support of a friend of the show, Larry Fitzgerald sitting behind him in that news conference the other week that looks like it's going to go through poly market odds or the betting market odds are showing that war is going to get passed without much pushback. So this should be Fed Chair Pal's last decision. Here's what we're going to do. It's 2:15. We're going to give 15 minutes. We'll do like a quick little market update. Then we're going to really focus 2:30. So in 13 minutes the the press Conference starts. So we're going to tune into that. We'll listen to it together like we've done in the past. And then on the back end of that, we'll. We'll react to it. We'll see how markets react. I think the. The official decision out there is no, no movement on the Fed rates, which everybody knew that was as expected. But it all comes down the press conference. And I guess, Brian, as I hand it off to you for your initial takes, it does. It feels like it's a monument as one, just because this last one. But then, I don't know, like, what's. It'll be interesting to see how the market reacts because he's on his way out, right? So I don't know how much, you know, he'll stir. He could or would or even want to stir the pot before he leaves.
