Reddit, a somewhat untamed fixture of the internet, is launching an initial public offering of its shares. We’ll get into why the company’s culture could become an obstacle to profitability and whether Reddit might get the meme stock treatment its users famously dished out in the past. And, the TikTok creators who’d be most affected by a nationwide ban are the social media company’s greatest lobbyists. Plus, the impact Family Dollar store closures could have on food deserts and an incredible feat by American sailor Cole Brauer.
Here’s everything we talked about today:
- “TikTok’s ‘Juicy Body Goddess’ speaks to CNN about potential ban” from CNN Politics
- “TikTok creators say House ban threatens lives and livelihoods” from The Washington Post
- “Reddit will let users participate in its IPO” from Marketplace
- “Dollar Tree to close nearly 1,000 stores” from AP News
Join us tomorrow for Economics on Tap! The YouTube livestream starts at 3:30 p.m. Pacific time, 6:30 p.m. Eastern.
