True to President Trump's campaign promise, the “one big, beautiful bill” allows a limited deduction for overtime income, but the mantra “no tax on overtime” is not quite accurate. In this episode, Tax attorney Douglas Charnas (Washington) and Employment attorney Susan Desmond (New Orleans) discuss the new employee deduction for overtime pay and employers' reporting responsibilities for these deductions.
In the latest episode of Weber Gallagher's Risk Roundtable, join Partners Vanessa Mendelewski and Scott Wilson as they explore the complexities of the gig economy and independent contractor status in New Jersey workers' compensation law. The hosts break down the ABC test, a key legal standard for determining whether a worker is classified as an employee or an independent contractor. Through real-world examples and recent court cases, they discuss how factors like control, the nature of the work, and financial independence impact worker classification. The conversation also covers the challenges faced by gig workers such as Uber, Lyft, and DoorDash drivers, and explains why contracts alone do not determine employment status. Listeners will gain practical insights into how courts approach these cases and what employers and workers should consider when navigating the evolving landscape of gig work. Tune in for an in-depth analysis and actionable takeaways on worker classification and compensation.
You can text us here with any comments, questions, or thoughts!This week, Kemi tackles the pressing question: What does the new standard of academia look like in the wake of recent upheavals? As institutions grapple with shifting ideologies, Kemi explores the implications for academic faculty and the emergence of a new "gig economy" within academia. In this episode, she emphasizes the need for faculty to redefine their self-worth, viewing themselves as valuable resources rather than mere commodities to be leveraged by institutions. Kemi also outlines the importance of understanding the connections between your input and output, and how to articulate your unique contributions, your “collateral benefits”, within this evolving landscape.

Good Fortune – Ein ganz spezieller Schutzengel | Lieber weinend im Rolls Royce, als... Habt ihr Lust auf eine neue Switch-Comedy? In „Good Fortune“ wird diesmal nicht wie zuletzt in „Freakier Friday“ nur der Körper, sondern gleich das gesamte Leben getauscht. Im Zentrum steht der Engel Gabriel (Keanu Reeves), der plötzlich in das Leben zweier völlig unterschiedlicher Männer tritt: Arj (Aziz Ansari), ein ausgepowerter Projektarbeiter aus der Gig-Economy, und Jeff (Seth Rogen), sein wohlhabender Arbeitgeber und Investor. Um beiden zu helfen, vertauscht Gabriel kurzerhand ihre Lebensstile – mit ungeahnten Folgen. Während Arj Gefallen an Jeffs luxuriösem Alltag findet und partout nicht mehr zurückwill, bringt er damit nicht nur Jeff, sondern auch Gabriel in ernste Schwierigkeiten.

In 2023 the Supreme Court made a key ruling in the employment space which makes it much tougher for freelancers to have arms length contracts with the company from which they earn most of their income. Now the Revenue has set until January for employers to get their contract labour onto regular PAYE contracts. It's a big shakeup especially for so-called gig economy workers.All to discuss with Deirdre Malone, Head of Employment Law at EY Ireland.

When Cindy Bi hired a surrogate to carry her baby, she neglected to tell her that she had health issues that could put her life in danger. It turns out, she's not required to do so by law. And when the pregnancy went wrong and the child was lost, as reported in Wired Magazine, it opened up a legal, ethical hellmouth. Jessa and Nico discuss the gig economy's takeover of the womb, why the surrogacy industry is powerful yet almost entirely unregulated, and the baby market.

We would love to hear your feedback!EP 266 News LinksEver wondered what happens when a gig worker has to jump a fence during an Amazon delivery? Or how Nashville became home to some of the highest airport rideshare fees in America? The Gig Economy Podcast dives deep into these stories and more as we explore the increasingly chaotic landscape facing today's drivers.When Nashville International Airport implemented a combined $12 round-trip surcharge for rideshare vehicles while simultaneously forcing drivers to use confusing parking garage drop-offs instead of terminal curbsides, it highlighted the growing tension between traditional services and the gig economy. Meanwhile, autonomous vehicles continue their march into mainstream transportation, with Tesla expanding its robo-taxi service from Austin to California's Bay Area—though their boast of 7,000 miles without incidents drew chuckles from hosts who regularly exceed that distance in mere months of driving.The darker side of the gig economy emerges in shocking incidents captured on video: a rideshare driver with a fake license physically assaulting a CEO over his service dog, a DoorDash driver confronted by a nude customer, and a pedestrian violently attacking a Waymo autonomous vehicle. These stories illuminate the very real safety concerns facing both human and robotic participants in today's transportation ecosystem.From Uber's surprising partnership with Turo allowing in-app car rentals to Walmart Spark's changing delivery structure, we examine how companies continue shifting their business models—often at drivers' expense. We also provide practical insight on how canceling rides affects passenger ratings (it doesn't!) and share our experiences with app algorithms and promotional opportunities that vary wildly between markets.Whether you're a full-time gig worker, occasional driver, or just fascinated by this rapidly evolving industry, our no-nonsense conversation provides both entertainment and essential information to navigate today's complex gig economy landscape.

They unpack the pros and cons of investing in gold, the reality of inflation's impact on retirement, and why “gig work” is changing how people save for the future. Listener questions bring the conversation to life, covering everything from the risk of holding too much cash, to how small business owners can build wealth without losing tax efficiency. The guys also highlight common traps investors fall into when chasing safety, and why long-term planning still beats short-term reactions—even in unpredictable markets.

Might the supposedly revolutionary future of AI healthcare actually be a return to the gig economics of Uber and Airbnb? That's the intriguing proposition put forward by former Kaiser Permanente Chief and Stanford Medical School professor Robert Pearl, a prescient observer of the future of his industry. According to Pearl, we may be returning to the digital future: freelance doctors, he predicts, will train people to use existing AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) for managing chronic conditions - essentially "Uberizing" medical AI guidance. The real question, of course, is whether this will cheer up both doctors and patients. Pearl isn't sure about either. But one thing he is certain about is that MAGA government isn't the answer to fixing America's healthcare future. Having been cautiously optimistic about RFK Jr six months ago, he now gives the US Secretary of Health and Human Services an “F” for his first six months in office. Maybe we should Uberize RFK Jr. It certainly couldn't make things worse. 1. Two Competing AI Healthcare ModelsPearl identifies two paths: expensive, FDA-regulated products from tech companies versus affordable, clinician-led training programs that teach patients to use existing AI tools like ChatGPT for chronic disease management—with the second potentially avoiding regulation entirely.2. AI Could Prevent 30-50% of Medical DeathsBy better managing chronic diseases like hypertension and diabetes (which account for 70% of doctor visits and costs), AI could save $1.5 trillion and prevent massive numbers of deaths from heart disease, cancer, kidney failure, and strokes.3. The "Uberization" of Medical CareWith 40% of doctors already doing gig work, Pearl envisions freelance physicians training patients to use AI tools for continuous health monitoring—replacing the current system of infrequent office visits with real-time, at-home care management.4. Insurance Companies Will Welcome AI, Hospitals Will ResistInsurers will benefit from lower costs and reduced need for prior authorizations, while hospitals and drug companies will see fewer patients and medication sales—making them the primary opponents of AI healthcare adoption.5. Medical Education Faces Major DisruptionElite institutions like Stanford will focus on complex procedures (heart transplants, major cancers), while routine medical knowledge becomes commodified. Mid-level healthcare jobs will disappear, similar to what's happening in computer programming.Bonus Political Takeaway: Pearl gives RFK Jr. an "F" for his first six months, saying he's capitulated to the agricultural industry instead of tackling the root causes of chronic disease through nutrition policy.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I'm joined by Dave from Theory Underground to unpack the “Post-Class Fractured Mass” (PCFM): why the working class, the “proletariat” no longer coheres the way Marxists imagined, how media + schooling carve us into niches and swarms, and what this means for organizing today. We talk about why the decline of working-class power is due to real material factors in the economy, and not just due to ideology and “class consciousness.” This brings us to the pivotal question: in the age of the gig economy, is the working class obsolete as the agent of revolutionary change? If so, who is the revolutionary subject today? In the backroom, we discuss the issues with the term “Post-Left”, how people burn out from politics, and how bourgeois pseudoprogressive libertine attitudes bleed into leftist circles (like polyamory, non-monogamy, etc).

In this episode, the boys roll out the red carpet for Ankit Kalda, a finance brainiac from Indiana University's Kelley School of Business. They dive into the gig economy's role as a financial lifeboat for laid-off workers, tossing around ideas like Uber drivers dodging debt faster than a bad Tinder date. The crew chews over how gig work reshapes the workforce, with HR folks scrambling to keep up like over-caffeinated squirrels. They also poke at the headaches gig platforms face—think regulatory red tape and automation like Tesla's robotaxis stealing the wheel. Plus, they riff on Uncle Sam's snooping into gig earnings, what Gen Z expects from this hustle-heavy world, and whether the gig economy's future is a shiny utopia or a dystopian dumpster fire.

We asked one of the best econometric scholars we know () and one of the best qualitative scholars we know () to fight this debate on air and come up with their very own end-of-all arguments.

Welcome back to The Not Old – Better Show! I'm your host, Paul Vogelzang, and today, we're talking about turning clutter into cash, attic junk into treasures, and maybe—just maybe—your next garage sale into a goldmine. Think about it—how many of us have boxes of old collectibles, furniture gathering dust, or a closet filled with clothes we haven't worn in a decade? Downsizing and decluttering can feel overwhelming, but what if I told you that hidden in those stacks of “stuff” could be real money—thousands of dollars just waiting to be uncovered? Well, today's guest knows exactly how to find it. Aaron LaPedis, better known as The Garage Sale Millionaire, made his first deal at age nine, flipping baseball cards and coins. By 21, he was a self-made millionaire—all from garage sales, storage auctions, and resale finds. He's spent the past 40 years uncovering hidden gems, dodging scams, and teaching everyday people how to cash in on forgotten treasures. Aaron's going to reveal the biggest mistakes people make when selling their stuff, the top five things in your home right now that could be worth serious money, and how to master the art of negotiation—whether in person or online. We'll even get into the wild world of storage unit auctions—do they live up to the TV hype? If you've ever thought about downsizing, decluttering, or making extra income in retirement, this episode is for you. So grab a pen, take notes, and get ready to see your garage, attic, and even your junk drawer in a whole new light. Now, let's welcome to the show—The Garage Sale Millionaire himself, Aaron LaPedis!
