So there’s a been a lot of bad hot takes lately about copyright and the public domain, and in the spirit of education and fun, I wanted to share this Planet Money Podcast series in which they attempt to license and merchandise a superhero character, which is edifying, funny, and takes a surprisingly poignant turn at the end of the third act.
I did not expect to tear up over an economics podcast.
Planet Money: We Buy A Superhero: Origins.
Planet Money: We Buy A Superhero: Loophole.
Planet Money: We Buy A Superhero: Resurrection.
I have a quibble or two here and there, but in general this is spot on and delightful.
Best,
Bear
