Is the Big Quit a Good Thing? - a podcast by Marist Poll

CNN made a mistake recently when reporting on their own poll. But, before they could correct it (which they quickly did), Fox picked it up and reported the error as actual results. This situation doesn't help the credibility of news organizations or the polling industry. And it wasn't even the poll's fault!

Then, Mark Muro, a Senior Fellow at Brookings Metro, joins to discuss his research on how the Great Resignation may be helping not only workers, but the economy as a whole. It's the kind of counterintuitive look at data we love! Check out his article here: https://www.brookings.edu/blog/the-avenue/2022/01/12/why-the-pandemics-record-breaking-quit-rates-are-a-boon-to-workers/ Follow Mark on Twitter: @MarkMuro1

Finally, we look at a poll that is certainly out of the ordinary in both topic and sponsor! Sponsored by Cards Against Humanity, it asks about a Halloween...and Hollywood...favorite.
