The world keeps telling you the economy is booming — but your wallet, your rent, and your job prospects say otherwise. The Math Isn’t Mathing breaks down why modern life feels impossible by pulling apart the systems behind housing, gig work, climate finance, digital platforms, and global development.

Each episode “pops the hood” and exposes the mechanics behind rising rents, vanishing job security, and the creeping rise of techno-feudalism. With insights from groundbreaking books and political economy research, this show connects the dots between your landlord, your data, the gig apps on your phone, and the melting planet.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re working harder but falling further behind, this podcast explains the game — and how the rules were written.
