A fast food combo crossing $10 might seem small, but it says a lot about today’s economy.

 In this episode, Sam Rodriguez and Conor Shepard break down why things still feel expensive even as inflation slows. From why prices rarely come down to the gap between wage growth and rising costs, they connect what you’re feeling to what’s actually happening.

If your money doesn’t seem to go as far anymore, this will help explain why.
