  • NPR.

  • This is The Indicator from Planet Money.

  • I'm Waylon Wong and I'm joined today by my co-host Darien Woods.

  • Hey Waylon, well today we're also joined by Planet Money's Sarah Gonzalez.

  • Hey guys, nice to be here and on video this time I did my hair for you.

  • Ugh, it looks beautiful.

  • And while everyone locks in not just their glam,

  • but their prediction market bets for the Oscars this weekend,

  • we here at The Indicator will lock in our...

  • Indicators of the Week!

  • So it's that time of the week when we talk about the most interesting numbers from the news.

  • On today's episode, we're talking about...

  • Gas prices going up, up, up.

  • And a plan to maybe get gas prices to go back down, down, down.

  • And Live Nation and Ticketmaster live to see another day.

  • It is indicators of the week, Darien Woods.

  • You are up first.

  • So my indicator is 20, as in 20 million barrels of oil trapped, which is 20% of global supply.

  • And it's meaning gasoline prices have gone up 20%.

  • I am watching the gas station closest to me.
