About this episode

We welcome C. Jarrett Dieterle to the show to discuss the gig economy and alcohol policy. Jarrett is a resident senior fellow at R Street Institute. As a textbook example of unintended consequences, we touch on the recent calamity caused by a Seattle law impacting delivery driver pay. What can be done to actually help gig workers? How can the right promote a pro-worker, flexible agenda? Finally, we touch on alcohol policy and the crazy laws that prevent you from your right to catch a buzz. Find his work at R Street here.
