Appearances
We were here to protest police brutality.
The whole space felt darker and angrier.
The world is filled with smart ideas that can help all of us live better lives.
And at Planet Money, we haven't just talked about those ideas.
We have followed the money around the world.
Crossing borders.
Squeezing into the economy section of airplanes.
On your knees.
If the guy in front of me were to put his seat back, I'd be screwed.
Braving the waves of the high seas.
All of this to meet the people trying to make it in the global economy, from CEOs to a drug dealer in the Netherlands.
This summer, pack a bag, because this time you're coming along for the ride.
Seven continents, eight weeks, 1,000 insights.
Welcome back, everyone, to Planet Money Summer School World Tour, the international economics degree that fills your passport and your soul.
I'm Robert Smith.
This season on Summer School, we are spending our parents' money on a semester abroad.
We'll hang out in cafes, learn a few exotic swear words, and we'll study.
We'll study a bit.
I mean, it is definitely not a vacation, Dad.
Each Wednesday until Labor Day, we will jet to a different country and meet people like us, facing problems like the ones we face, but coming up with solutions we could never have dreamed of.
