About this listen

When “vibecession” became a word in 2022, it referred to consumers grappling with higher prices despite a strong economy. This year, consumers are feeling similar.

Plus: Two big economic indicators come out later this week, we explain the inner workings of online travel agents, and “This is Uncomfortable” host Reema Khrais helps a couple solve a financial disagreement.
