The Rest of the Story, 2025
Most stories keep going even after we set down our microphones and the music fades up. That's why, at the end of each year, we look back and we take stock.
We call this tradition "The Rest of the Story." And we bring you updates on the stories we've reported, and from the people we've met along the way.
Today, we check in on an engineer and patent attorney who made a safer saw; we get an update on the Planet Money game; an update on money in Gaza; and we have updates on a diamond that may or may not have had a second life.
Listen to the original stories:
The Subscription Trap
Planet Money buys a mystery diamond
In Gaza, money is falling apart
BOARD GAMES 1: We're making a game
How to save 10,000 fingers
This episode of Planet Money was produced by Luis Gallo, edited by Alex Goldmark, fact-checked by Vito Emanuel, and engineered by Debbie Daughtry.
