Our take on Good on Paper podcast

Good on Paper, by Jerusalem Demsas from The Atlantic, focuses on how policies really affect our lives. Does what sounds good in theory work just as well in reality? This podcast explores these questions. Each week, Demsas engages with experts to dissect policies related to housing, immigration, and more. The first episode challenges the conventional view of remote work, revealing the complex dynamics between bosses and employees. Join her every Tuesday as she puts a new spin on old ideas and delivers a much-needed dose of reality.
