This is Planet Money from NPR.
If somehow, given everything that's going on in the world these days, you missed it, let me be the first to tell you.
Planet Money just published its first ever book.
It was the culmination of years of work.
We navigated the world of agents and editors and auctions,
figured out how to manufacture a book during a trade war and get it
to stores around the world from airports to cruise ships.
And throughout that process, my boss's boss,
my grand boss, Alex Goldmark, he and everyone else involved in the book fantasy.
That if we played our cards right, maybe someday this book could reach the holy grail of commercial publishing.
Maybe this book could make the New York Times bestseller list.
So it was carrying all those dreams from my grandboss that I recently walked into the office
of Planet Money's book editor, Tom Mayer, at the publishing house W.W. Norton in New York.
I was there about a week after the book launched to witness the moment of truth.
