It Turns Out

It Turns Out is a rigorous, data-driven podcast hosted by award-winning journalist Kara Miller that deconstructs the hidden forces shaping modern society. By bridging the gap between complex academic research and everyday life, the show challenges conventional wisdom on topics ranging from global economic shifts and technological disruption to the psychological impacts of digital culture. With a tone that is both intellectually sharp and accessible, Miller engages leading experts to explore the 'why' behind systemic changes, such as the globalization of white-collar labor, the motivations behind space exploration, and the societal consequences of normalized gambling. It is an essential listen for curious, policy-minded individuals who want to understand the structural realities that influence their future, wealth, and well-being.
