The Best One Yet - 🪞 “Mirror, no Mirror?” — Aritzia’s mirrorless fashion. Nobel’s Creative Destruction prize. Strava’s Garmin lawsuit. +Failure Day

Canada’s Aritzia is now as valuable as The Gap or Levi’s… But it’s doing it with mirrorless dressing rooms.

Strava sued Garmin as the running app preps to IPO… It’s social networks vs. satellite networks.

The Nobel Prize in Economics goes to “Creative Destruction”... so we read the paper from the 3 professors.

Plus, it’s International Day of Failure… which we epically failed at.

Native America Calling - Tuesday, October 14, 2025 – Shifting the balance in historical scholarship

The stories and written documentation on boarding schools, Indian Agents, and even the fictional character, Paul Bunyan, all have an influence on how we view history. The Western History Association Conference in Albuquerque, N.M., this week assembles a number of discussions led by Native American historians on those and other topics, gauging how well Native perspectives are taken into account. We’ll hear from some of those historians about the changing influence of Native historical scholarship.

GUESTS

Vivien Tejada (Cherokee), assistant professor of history at University of California, Los Angeles

Dr. Farina King (Diné), professor of Native American studies and Horizon Chair of NA ecology and culture at the University of Oklahoma

Michael Holloman (Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation), professor in the Department of Art at Washington State University

The Indicator from Planet Money - Why do we live in unusually innovative times?

For most of human history, economic growth was, well, pretty bleak. But around the Enlightenment, things started clicking. This year's Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences went to a trio of researchers whose work focuses on how technological progress led to this sustained economic growth. Today we hear from one of them, Joel Mokyr, about his work on European economic history.

Short Wave - Why Legal Weed Isn’t Always Safe

Marijuana is decriminalized or legal in some form in multiple states. But, because it’s illegal on the federal level, states have had to build their own regulatory infrastructure. Without a centralized body to guide them, regulations in one state can look vastly different from those in another. For more on the scope of the issue, Short Wave host Regina G. Barber talks to independent science journalist Teresa Carr and NPR pharmaceuticals correspondent Sydney Lupkin. 
Read more of Teresa’s reporting on state marijuana testing, and more of Sydney’s reporting on the ways California is trying to make weed safer.
