このコンテンツについて

Join economist and charismatic host Nick Ledger as he unpacks the fascinating transformation of modern work in this deep dive into the gig economy's origins. From medieval mercenary knights to Uber drivers, Nick explores how freelance work evolved from the margins to the mainstream, fueled by the perfect storm of the 2008 financial crisis and smartphone technology. Discover the untold story behind platforms like Uber, Lyft, TaskRabbit, and DoorDash, and learn how the language of "side gigs" and "flexibility" masks complex economic realities. With his signature blend of sharp economic analysis and accessible humor, Nick reveals why millions of Americans traded traditional employment for the promise of working on their own terms—and what that really means for workers, consumers, and the broader economy. This comprehensive exploration examines everything from surge pricing algorithms to the psychological toll of constant hustle, offering insights that will change how you think about the future of work. Whether you're a gig worker, traditional employee, or simply curious about economic trends, this episode delivers the kind of engaging analysis that makes complex topics feel like common sense.
