October 31, 2018 5: Permission To Panic

In this week's episode of The Readback, Alex Eule talks to Barron's Jack Hough, whose latest feature gives readers permission to explore their emotions a bit. Even panic.
The Readback is a weekly, financial podcast from Barron's. The show is hosted by managing editor Alex Eule and produced by Mette Lützhøft.

October 17, 2018 3: The Stamp King

But Barron's latest Gross story by senior writer Mary Childs comes with a twist-how the bond king became the world leader in stamps. This week on The Readback Mary joins us to talk about the latest chapter in her ongoing coverage of Bill Gross. In addition to her daily Barron's coverage, Mary is currently finishing up a book on Gross. So there's no one better to discuss the bond king.

October 03, 2018 1: What's Left for The Toy Industry?
In the age of Amazon, perhaps no industry has had it worse than the toy sellers. Local toy shops have been undercut by Amazon and then hurt again by Target and Walmart trying to push back against their own Amazon threat. Scale hasn't done much to help.

In today's episode of Barron's new podcast The Readback, Alex Eule talks to Barron's Associate Editor Jack Hough about the future of the toy industry.
