About this listen

It turns out invasive goldfish in a metro lake make a nice snack for the less picky animals at the zoo. Less work flexibility means more working moms are making big life changes. Plus, we find out if the 40th annual Farm Aid concert really does help farmers. And this year a famous son joins the lineup.

Read more about discarded pet goldfish in Lake Cornelia, women leaving the workforce and everything you need to know about attending (or viewing) Farm Aid 2025.

This week our guests are intern Sofia Barnett, economic reporter Emma Nelson, and business reporter Brooks Johnson.
