Our Weekly Economic News Roundup: From Tariffs to Tourists
April 26, 2025
Every once in a while, (and sometimes each day) I listen to a great podcast, enjoy an article, or see a good video that I want to share with you. These are my e-links.

Like me, you might be fascinated with how (and if) we can prepare for a journey to Mars. In this podcast, my favorite of the week, they discuss all. While the journey could take only six months, still, it ravages the body (like liquid building in our eyes). Predictably, they detail how to preserve a food supply and say what is wrong with the landing pad. Of course also, they ponder what Elon Musk adds to the discussion.
So yes, it is all rather daunting. While you need a subscription to The Economist to listen, I suspect it is ungated elsewhere.
