Prediction markets have never been bigger — or more controversial. On this episode of the Everybody’s Business podcast, @svaneksmith and @chafkin sit down with @jacobgoldstein and @radiosmith to unpack how betting on real-world events went mainstream — and why platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket are reshaping the way people trade on everything from politics to pop culture t.co/SkK727QEvR

PS I was inspired to look into this when I did a story on the A&P, which basically invented private label products. Amazing story. Includes the govt bringing criminal charges against the company -- for selling stuff too cheap. lnk.to/d7IIyf

How big is Costco's house brand Kirkland? Annual global sales of Kirkland products are higher than the annual sales of, Levi's, Ralph Lauren, Hershey, Campbell's, and Coca-Cola. COMBINED.

@pushkinpods @jacobgoldstein @radiosmith I love this podcast. I look forward to it every week. You asked for some thoughts on future episodes. 1. How and why are the Green Bay Packers differently owned than other nfl teams. 2. Similar to your series in Thomas Edison, how about JP Morgan.

A guy scraped crud from his teeth in 1674 and discovered bacteria. Took us 200 years to realize bacteria can kill us. What dots are we failing to connect today?
