The Indicator from Planet Money - Who’s afraid of private credit?

There is a $3 trillion dollar black box at the center of the economy. It’s called private credit. These are direct loans from private investors to private companies. They’re often riskier, less regulated than traditional bank loans – and far less transparent. Spooked investors are scrambling to cash out, and some funds aren’t letting them. It’s all fueling fears of another financial crisis.

On today’s show, the private credit exodus.

NPR's Book of the Day - Geoff Bennett on the history of Black comedy from vaudeville to sitcoms

PBS Newshour co-anchor Geoff Bennett is out with a new book that presents portraits of Black artists who shaped comedy. Black Out Loud is a history that starts with vaudeville and runs through the ‘90s, when sitcoms like The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, In Living Color and Family Matters carried the responsibility of representing a varied Black experience. In today’s episode, Bennett speaks with NPR’s Scott Simon about vaudeville and minstrelsy as the DNA of Black comedic performance, the impact of Amos ‘n’ Andy, and comedians like Bert Williams, Richard Pryor and Dave Chappelle.

The Stack Overflow Podcast - How can you test your code when you don’t know what’s in it?

Ryan hosts SmartBear’s VP of AI and Architecture Fitz Nowlan to explore how we’re moving away from old assumptions about software development, the challenges of testing MCP servers as LLM-driven agents introduce non-determinism that breaks tradition, and how data locality and data construction are becoming more valuable when source code is so easy to generate.

Episode notes: 

SmartBear gives devs tools for application performance monitoring, software development, software testing, and API management—all at AI speed and scale.

But Iran remains publicly defiant, calling U.S. demands "unrealistic," and continuing its attacks on Israel and the region. Nick Schifrin reports.
