Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we look at accountability and fine print in the context of the sharing economy. What are the mechanisms of accountability? And what about those vehicles for worker protection?

Plus, in the near past, we check in with longreads.

We hear from Patrick Pittman, Louis-Jacques Darveau, John Di Palma, Eli Burnstein, and Anna Duckworth.
