The episode kicks off with the White House hedging on the definition of a recession. Doogles covers a post by Morgan Housel about the power of pattern matching. There's a robust conversation about housing — first on the role that government can play in long term housing stability, and then the pain that mobile home park residents are facing. Skippy wraps the episode with developing nations being put into debt, an innovative way to fight global warming, and how Halloween won't be the same this year.
