A Bloomberg investigation shows that some podcasters are selling guest slots for up to $50,000. We'll open the Gist's ledger to see who the highest- and lowest-paid guests have been. And we're joined once more by Rafael A. Mangual, author of Criminal (In)Justice: What the Push for Decarceration and Depolicing Gets Wrong and Who It Hurts Most. Plus, Monkey Pox messaging isn't exactly accurate, but at least it's not mean.

Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara
