About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges faced by the middle class in affording common activities and the overall decline in quality of experiences.

Hi. On today's episode of Some More News, we look at how everyone except the richest Americans are largely being priced out of things that used to be common middle class activities – Disneyland, movie tickets, sporting events – and how even when you can afford something, it probably kind of sucks now.
