Shop local! Buy local! Eat local! It's local enough. But local means a lot of things, and as Spencer Elliott of the USA Today Network tells us, there are no real rules about what it means. We do know one thing it means, though, and that's money.

The stories Elliott is telling us about:

'Buy local' food programs deceive consumers and are rarely enforced, a USA TODAY Network investigation finds

What you're really getting when you 'Pick Tennessee' products

You can hear Spencer's other contributions to the programs. He's told us about how people are communicating with co-workers in the gig economy and about a column which suggests how Colorado State might solve its basketball drama.
