Marketplace (PM)

  • Kai talks to Andrew Friedman about this book “The Dish: The Lives and Labor Behind a Plate of Food.”
  • The Phoenix suburb of Buckeye, Arizona is one of the fastest growing cities in the country. It’s grown 20-fold in the past few decades, and it’s on track to add more than 100,000 residents in coming years. The only catch? There’s not enough water. So, what’s a small city with big dreams to do? Part of the solution lies in an acre of scrubby desert 35 miles away. Marketplace’s Amy Scott reports as part of How We Survive’s new season—the worth of water.

  • Wednesday, Oct 18: Meghna speaks with Maria Coffey, a woman who chose not to become a parent. She’s written a memoir about the consequences of that choice — of the experience and adventures she’s had exploring the world, and how she’s also emerged through storms of doubt about her choice.
