Mrs. Meyer’s is a hugely successful line of soaps and cleansers named for a real Mrs. Meyer: a no-nonsense Iowa homemaker who raised nine kids, including the brand’s founder. When Monica Nassif started Mrs. Meyer’s, she’d already launched an upscale cleaning brand, but it was too pricey for the mass market. Worried that another company might muscle into her lane, Monica decided to knock herself off: she launched Mrs. Meyer’s with an elegant design and exotic fragrances– but at a price point that allowed her to target Target. Monica’s mom Thelma became a beloved mascot for the brand, which–after spreading to sinks across America — was eventually acquired by S.C. Johnson.

The Planet Money Podcast is a captivating creation that has garnered immense popularity for its unique approach to explaining economics. Rather than using jargon and technical terms, the show artfully weaves engaging stories that breathe life into the subject, making it accessible and relatable to a diverse audience.
From the origins of economic concepts to the far-reaching consequences of global financial events, each episode offers a fresh perspective on how economics influences our daily lives.
Whether it’s discussing the impact of a simple household appliance on the world economy or revealing peculiar economic indicators, the podcast dives into a vast array of topics with clarity and wit.
There has been chaotic uncertainty around billions of dollars allocated by Congress. The Trump administration ordered a pause on — and review of — certain types of federal assistance. A judge blocked that freeze. But reports continue to emerge that certain parts of the government were not getting their money.
As a result, hundreds and hundreds of people have lost their jobs, clinics and daycares across the country have been left wondering if they’ll have money to operate, retirees have worried about getting their payments.
But the United States is a country of transparency. And if you know where to look, there is a way to cut through all the confusion. Because there’s this one big pipe from the US Treasury through which most federal spending flows.
So, today, we discover a way to go look at that money pipe. And we’ll look at some of the people and the programs on the other end of that pipe. And we tell you about a tool (it’s at The Hamilton Project! Right here.) that you can use to follow along from home, right now, as this gigantic federal spending story continues developing and developing.
