Erika Barris

We have another interview from the tour I'm going to play you part of.

It's with Daryl Fairweather.

Daryl is a behavioral economist and author of the book Hate the Game, Economic Cheat Codes for Life, Love and Work.

She's also quoted many times in our book, especially on the topic of housing.

So please welcome Daryl Fairweather.

Daryl's currently the chief economist at Redfin, the realty company.

And she used to be a senior economist at Amazon in Seattle, which is where she joined us.

Here she is talking with host Kenny Malone and the main author of the Planet Money book, Alex Mayasi, about how the work of economists is baked into so much of our daily lives.

Daryl Fairweather is the chief economist at Redfin.

That's our show.

There are still stops left on the book tour.

I will be in Pittsburgh tonight, April 22nd, doing the Planet Money Game Theory Game Show as part of the tour.

Then there are shows in Chicago on the 23rd and Toronto on the 27th.

Come by, say hello, maybe grab a copy of the book.

More information at planetmoneybook.com.

You can now find our book, Planet Money, a guide to the economic forces that shape your life in bookstores.

If you go spot it, please let us know what section it is in.

We'll have one more installment of our book series soon where we dive into the secretive world of bestseller lists.

Thanks to everyone who came out so far and who picked up a copy.

This episode of Planet Money was edited and produced by Eric Menel and Emma Peasley.
