Prologue -- Is the condo half empty, or is the condo half full? -- Unbreaking the bank -- Short-circuit city -- Credits.
Hosted by Ira Glass.
The economy works in mysterious ways. This week, we highlight the unusual circumstances our economic drought has left us in, and the newly hatched plans being made to survive it: including a partially-renovated condo building in Chicago, whose developers have abandoned it{u2014}though they didn{u2019}t bother to tell the 19 unit owners who still live there, paying their mortgages. And a story which tracks the FDIC during its most covert operation: taking over an unsuspecting bank.
