Rani Molla [@ranimolla], senior data reporter at Vox's Recode, on the data behind today's weird job market. Listen.   3. Felix Salmon [@felixsalmon], chief financial correspondent at Axios, on the power of the price of gas. Listen. 4. Mark Blyth [@MkBlyth], professor of International Economics and Public Affairs at Brown University, on how the economy is ultimately a mirror of our accomplishments, advances, fears, and mistakes.
