  • Indicators of the Year, Past and Future
    Dec 31 2025
    2025 is finally over. It was a wild year for the U.S. economy. Tariffs transformed global trading, consumer sentiment hit near-historic lows, and stocks hit dramatic new heights! So … which of these economic stories defined the year?


    We will square off in a family feud to make our case, debate, and decide it.


    Also, as we enter 2026, we are watching the trends and planning out what next years stories are likely to be. So we’re picking which indicators will become next years most telling.


    On today’s episode, our indicators of this past year AND our top indicator predictions for 2026.

  • Why economists got free trade with China so wrong
    Dec 30 2025
    With the year coming to a close, we're sharing our most popular Planet Money bonus episode of 2025!

    As U.S. trade with China exploded in the early 2000's, American manufacturing began to shrivel. Those workers struggled to adapt and find new jobs. It ran counter to how mainstream economics at the time viewed free trade ... that it would be a clear win for the U.S. Greg Rosalsky talks with David Autor about why economists got free trade with China so wrong.

    Autor, an MIT economics professor, and his colleagues published a series of eye-opening studies over the last 15 years or so that brought to light the costs of U.S. trade with China. We also hear Autor's thoughts on the role of tariffs and get an update on his research. With better, more precise data, Autor says we have a more nuanced and "bleaker" picture of what happened to these manufacturing workers.

    You can read about Autor's research and sign up for The Planet Money Newsletter here.

  • The Rest of the Story, 2025
    Dec 26 2025
    Most stories keep going even after we set down our microphones and the music fades up. That's why, at the end of each year, we look back and we take stock.

    We call this tradition "The Rest of the Story." And we bring you updates on the stories we've reported, and from the people we've met along the way.

    Today, we check in on an engineer and patent attorney who made a safer saw; we get an update on the Planet Money game; an update on money in Gaza; and we have updates on a diamond that may or may not have had a second life.

    Listen to the original stories:
