Episode 4: The Hours That Hold Us Together

There’s a kind of wealth that doesn’t show up on Wall Street. It’s measured in sleep, sanity, and the time we give to one another. It’s the real economy of American life.

In this episode we explore what’s called the non-market economy through three conversations that reveal how time and dignity shape our daily lives:

• Dr. Jamie Zeitzer, a Stanford sleep scientist, explains how the biology of modern society has fallen out of rhythm and what that means for health, productivity, and happiness.
• Dillon Savory, Executive Director of the Fresno-Madera-Tulare-Kings Central Labor Council, talks about building community power, redefining the value of work, and fighting for time that belongs to families.
• Chad Guimond, a Lewiston, Maine Little League coach, reminds us of the quiet joy of passing the game and a sense of place down through generations.

Produced by Blue Dog Radio, this episode looks at the parts of life you can’t buy and the values that will always hold this country together.
