At The Indicator from Planet Money, we believe the economy doesn't have to be confusing.
Our show is built on one simple idea: big questions about money, work, and business can be
explained clearly, quickly, and in a way that's actually fun to listen to. Every weekday, in 10
minutes or less, we deliver smart, bite-sized insights that help you make sense of what's
happening right now — from breaking headlines to the hidden forces shaping everyday life.

We're part of the team behind Planet Money, and together we share a mission: to make the
economy accessible to everyone. While Planet Money brings you deeper stories twice a week,
The Indicator is your daily shortcut — the quick hit of clarity you can count on between
meetings, during your commute, or over your morning coffee. Because understanding the
economy shouldn't take an economics degree — just a few minutes of your day.
