Adapted from a comment I just left in [livejournal.com profile] colorwheel's LJ, but which more of y'all may be interested in:

NPR just launched a new blog-n-podcast called Planet Money whose topic is what you'd expect. I find it strangely reassuring that they figure that now's as good a time to launch the thing as any, what with all the everything going on.

The new show is itself kind of a spinoff of an excellent This American Life episode called "The Giant Pool of Money" from last spring, which did a great job explaining the crisis' core catalyst (the housing crap) in grokkable language and metaphor.
