(Jun 5, 2026) A new program in Clinton County trains current and prospective manufacturing employees at no cost; we follow the unlikely path of how a young woman from Lake Placid got her job in management through her side hustle as a babysitter; John Warren checks on trail conditions in the Adirondacks ahead of weekend adventures; and we take a look at the community calendar.

Gig economy reklamowała się jako recepta na bolączki tkwienia w „pracy od 9 do 17”. Model, który ma pomóc pracować wolnym duchom, chcącym podróżować, matkom wychowującym dzieci czy ludziom, którzy wolą być panami swojego czasu. Zastępuje on stałe zatrudnienie krótkoterminowymi kontraktami, zleceniami i „fuchami” – stąd nazwa gig, która wzięła się z muzycznego slangu, gdzie oznaczała jednorazowy występ bez żadnych zobowiązań, robotę. Jeżeli tymczasem spojrzymy na szarą codzienność, symbolem tej nowoczesnej formy gospodarczej, będzie szczelnie opatulony Hindus sunący przez warszawskie ulice, w deszczu, pomiędzy autami, na elektrycznym rowerze.

In this episode of The Real Wealth Show, Kathy Fettke sits down with realtor and investor Juliet Lalouel to talk about building long-term wealth in today's gig economy. From musicians and creatives to freelancers and entrepreneurs, many people earn inconsistent income and wonder if homeownership or investing is even possible. Juliet shares how she helps clients think beyond the next paycheck and start building financial stability through real estate, house hacking, and long-term planning. The conversation also dives into the mindset shifts around money, wealth, and "selling out," especially within creative industries. Plus, Kathy and Juliet discuss what they're seeing in today's housing market, including conditions in Denver and Hawaii, why buyers have more negotiating power right now, and why waiting for the "perfect time" to invest may not pay off.

Uber, Amazon, Deliveroo. Strip away the apps and the branding and you're left with a system of exploitation as old as civilisation itself.From ancient civilisations exploiting their populations and medieval serfdom to zero-hours contracts and unpaid internships, this episode traces the full history of work designed to extract everything from you while giving back as little as possible. We cover the Peasants' Revolt of 1381, the Tolpuddle Martyrs, the matchgirls who walked out of a factory in 1888 and won, and the thinkers from Paul Lafargue to Tom Hodgkinson who argued the whole system was a con. Plus: the four-day work week, worker cooperatives, and why doing less has repeatedly been proven to produce more.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Artist: Sarah Chey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.fiverr.com/sarahchey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

In today's episode, I sit down with Moe Jumaa, CEO of Waxii, to talk about building a business by questioning broken systems. At 24, Moe shares how a simple rideshare experience exposed a major gap in the market and led to a platform focused on giving drivers more of what they earn. We discuss his early start in crypto, learning through mentorship instead of traditional education, and why underserved global markets present massive opportunity. Moe also explains why he chose crowdfunding over venture capital and how aligning with community needs creates traction where big companies fall short.

Neste episódio do Fintech Talks nós recebemos Luiz Gustavo Neves, CEO e cofundador da GigU, para uma conversa sobre plataformas de inteligência e eficiência para motoristas e entregadores de apps — a linha de frente da Gig Economy.Falamos sobre como esses profissionais tomam decisões em segundos em um ambiente de precificação dinâmica e alta assimetria de informação — e por que aceitar “qualquer corrida” pode acabar treinando o algoritmo para oferecer sempre as piores oportunidades.

Além disso, falamos sobre expansão internacional, o desafio do mercado americano e novas frentes de serviços financeiros que estão sendo desenvolvidas pela empresa, com foco nas necessidades específicas de gestão e nas transações cotidianas dos profissionais da gig economy.Confira!

This episode goes somewhere we didn't plan, and we think that makes it one of our best yet.We sat down with Jarah Euston, co-founder and CEO of WorkWhile, a fast-growing app-based staffing platform connecting 80 million frontline workers with flexible shift opportunities. Jarah grew up in Fresno working retail, got burnt out building software for tech people, and decided to build technology for workers instead. It's a compelling vision and a genuinely interesting conversation about flexibility, AI, and what the future of work could look like for hourly employees.But after that conversation wrapped, we learned that WorkWhile had recently settled a second major lawsuit with the San Francisco City Attorney's office for misclassifying workers as independent contractors. So we spoke with David Chu, the San Francisco City Attorney, and asked for his side of the story.What you'll hear in this episode is both interviews back to back. First, Jarah's perspective on building worker-centered technology, and then David's perspective on what happens when "flexibility" becomes a cover for avoiding worker protections.Together, these two conversations raise a question that feels urgent right now: Is it possible to build a genuinely worker-centered future of work, one with flexibility, innovation, and fair treatment? Or are we just repackaging old inequities in new apps? Visit us at InclusionGeeks.com to stay up to date on all the ways you can make the workplace work for everyone!

Because he was promised an island.Sound familiar?“Work hard and you'll make partner.”“Grind now, equity later.”“We're a family here - your loyalty will be rewarded.”“Be your own boss - unlimited earning potential.”We're all Sancho Panza now. Following someone else's quest, enduring the chaos, waiting for an island that might never come - or worse, comes in a form we never actually wanted.This episode explores what happens when the everyman follows the madman's promise. What Cervantes understood about gig economy exploitation 400 years before Uber existed. And why Sancho's choice at the end might be the most radical thing you hear all year.Part 2 of “The Wisdom of Don Quixote” series.

In dieser Folge von Mikroökonom beschäftigen sich die Moderatoren Marco Herack und Jens mit drei Hauptthemen, beginnend mit der Kontroverse um digitale Trinkgelder. Marco äußert seine Ablehnung gegenüber dem zunehmenden Druck, bei digitalen Transaktionen Trinkgeld zu geben, und argumentiert, dass dies eher einer Forderung als einer Wahl gleichkomme. Er hebt die psychologischen Auswirkungen dieses Trends hervor, insbesondere wie er sich auf das Kundenerlebnis und die Wahrnehmung der Dienstleistung auswirkt. Die Diskussion geht in eine breitere Analyse der Trinkgeldkultur in Deutschland über, wo sie die Auswirkungen steigender Preise und des Mindestlohns auf das Trinkgeldverhalten untersuchen und einen Rückgang dieser Praxis in verschiedenen Dienstleistungsbranchen aufzeigen. Das Gespräch wendet sich dann der politischen Landschaft in den USA zu und konzentriert sich auf Donald Trumps Strategien im Vorfeld der Zwischenwahlen. Jens skizziert Trumps Versuche, die wirtschaftlichen Bedingungen zu manipulieren, um sein Image zu stärken, darunter der Druck auf die Federal Reserve, die Zinssätze zu senken, und das Eintreten für niedrigere Kreditkartenzinsen. Die Moderatoren diskutieren die Auswirkungen dieser Maßnahmen auf die Wirtschaft und die möglichen Folgen für die amerikanischen Verbraucher und betonen dabei den transaktionalen Charakter von Trumps Regierungsstil. Insgesamt bietet die Folge eine kritische Betrachtung sowohl der Trinkgeldkultur als auch der politischen Manöver im Kontext wirtschaftlicher Zwänge. In dieser Folge tauchen Marco Herack und Jens in die Komplexität der US-Politik ein und konzentrieren sich dabei insbesondere auf die Auswirkungen von Trumps Außenpolitik und die bevorstehenden Zwischenwahlen. Sie diskutieren die gemischten Gefühle der Wähler gegenüber Trumps Maßnahmen, insbesondere unter evangelikalen Gruppen, und die möglichen Auswirkungen von Taktiken zur Unterdrückung von Wählern auf das Engagement der Demokraten. Das Gespräch wendet sich dann wirtschaftlichen Themen zu, wobei sie die aktuelle Lage der US-Wirtschaft, die Inflation und die Rolle der Federal Reserve unter Trumps Einfluss analysieren. Sie äußern sich skeptisch über die Nachhaltigkeit des Wirtschaftswachstums und die Risiken einer übermäßigen Abhängigkeit von Konjunkturmaßnahmen, die zu einem Vertrauensverlust in Finanzinstitute führen könnten. Die Diskussion geht dann über zur Gig Economy, insbesondere zu den jüngsten Änderungen der Mindestlohngesetze für Lieferfahrer in New York. Marco hebt die unbeabsichtigten Folgen dieser Gesetze hervor, wie z. B. einen Rückgang der Trinkgelder und eine Verringerung der aktiven Fahrer, während Jens die weiterreichenden Auswirkungen auf Gig-Economy-Plattformen betont. Sie schließen mit Überlegungen zur sich wandelnden Natur von Arbeit und Vergütung im digitalen Zeitalter und betonen die Notwendigkeit eines tieferen Verständnisses dafür, wie sich diese Veränderungen sowohl auf Arbeitnehmer als auch auf Verbraucher auswirken.

One on One Video Call W/George https://tidycal.com/georgepmonty/60-minute-meetingSupport the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USIn a world besieged by the relentless march of AI, where algorithms whisper promises of utopia or apocalypse, one timeless tale rises from the dust of centuries to mirror our chaotic present: Don Quixote. Join host [Your Name] in the premiere episode of [Podcast Name], “The Knight of the Sorrowful Algorithm,” as we embark on a quixotic quest through Cervantes' masterpiece—a story of a man whose brain “dried up” from devouring too many fantastical romances, only to armor up and charge into a reality that mocked his dreams.But this isn't just dusty literature. It's us. Right now. Scrolling through endless feeds of AI doomsayers and saviors: “Your job is obsolete!” “Embrace the disruption!” “AGI will save—or end—humanity!” We're all Don Quixote, lost in a whirlwind of narratives that blur truth and fiction, leaving us paralyzed by questions: Is adaptation surrender? Is optimism naivety? And who are the true mad knights of our age—the artists defying generative machines, the workers reclaiming their humanity, or those daring to pursue passion in a profit-obsessed empire?Delve into the heart of the madness: Why Don Quixote chose delusion over despair, and why “sanity”—accepting a world ruled by efficiency, oligarchs, and obsolescence—might be the deadliest illusion of all. In a finale that shatters illusions, discover how renouncing the quest led to his demise… and what that means for us tilting at digital windmills.Epic, introspective, and urgently relevant, this episode challenges you to ask: In the AI era, is going a little mad the only way to stay truly alive? Tune in, saddle up your Rocinante, and ride into the fray. Next up: “Sancho Panza and the Gig Economy”—the everyman's gamble on a madman's promise.

In today's Tech3 from Moneycontrol, we kick off the New Year with a look at how India's startup and tech ecosystem hit the ground running. We unpack Deepinder Goyal's defence of the gig economy amid strike calls, examine India's draft space traffic safety rules as satellite launches rise, track the Centre's biggest-ever approvals under the electronics component scheme, and close with IIT Madras launching IITM Global as it scales its international research ambitions.

The Suffolk and Goode Players take on the Gig Economy in this parody of "Scarborough Fair/Canticle," an old English folk tune arranged by Martin Carthy and Paul Simon, who also added some lyrics and recorded it with Art Garfunkel. Our version had lyrics by Dale Leopold, Chris Mezzolesta arranged it and played acoustic guitar, bass guitar and virtual harpsichord and bells, and sung by Chris, Lori Furth and Karyn O'Bryant. Like the SandG version, there's a "Canticle" counter-melody that takes aim at the greed and callousness of those at the top. Enjoy!

There is an enormous amount of research on treatment for ADHD - pharmaceutical and otherwise. But not all of those trials, or meta-analyses, are of high quality; and not many compare the whole literature.  Now a new umbrella review - a review of reviews - tries to give a broad overview of the whole evidence base. Corentin Gosling, associate professor at the Université Paris Nanterre, joins us to set out the benefits and harms of ADHD therapies.   Also, the BMJ's been investigating the employment of doctors on “local” contracts in the NHS - and our latest look at this exposes what some have described as a “gig economy”, with doctors plugging rota gaps but missing out on training, development, and salary progression. Rebecca Coombes, head of journalism at The BMJ explains more.   Finally, Tom Frieden is former head of the US Centers for Disease Control, and current CEO of Resolve to Save Lives - he's written a new book on public health. He joins us to talk about what actually improves health at a population level, and why the current US administration's approach to staffing the CDC is leaving the country open to danger.   Reading list Benefits and harms of ADHD interventions: umbrella review and platform for shared decision making Revealed: Thousands of NHS doctors are trapped in insecure “gig economy” contracts

A Supreme Court ruling yesterday has confirmed four Uber drivers who first took a case against the ride share company in 2022 are actually employees rather than contracters. The ride share is one of thousands of digital platforms that are fueling a gig economy where workers tend to have multiple jobs, work temporary or short term stints and freelance. The World Bank estimates 400 million people earn money from these kind of platforms. But who is benefitting and is there a hidden cost to a cheaper ride to the airport? Employment relations researcher Alex Veen spoke to Lisa Owen.

Business New Zealand is warning the gig economy could collapse, after the Supreme Court's ruling in favour of Uber drivers' rights. Business NZ chief executive Katherine Rich spoke to Corin Dann

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.

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. Tune in now to join the discussion.  If you'd like to learn more foundational career navigation concepts for women of color in academic medicine and public health, sign up for our KD Coaching Foundations Series: www.kemidoll.com/foundations.
