What We Can Learn From Stockton’s Universal Basic Income Experiment - a podcast by KQED

Since early 2019, 125 random Stockton residents have been receiving $500 a month to spend however they want. And while the final data hasn't been released yet, we're starting to learn a little more about how that money was spent.

Guest: Rich Ibarra, correspondent for Capital Public Radio and longtime Stockton resident
