On today's plane to this year, we've reported on a bunch of cities that have been trying

to get back on track economically, like New York City with all those post-pandemic empty

office buildings.

It's Wednesday, it's the middle of the week, and I just want to know, can you hear the

sound of the office?

Let me listen.

I hear dead silence.

Or Tulsa, Oklahoma, paying work from homeers $10,000 to move there.

There's so much more than 10 grand, like the access and the community that you get

through being an active member of Tulsa, absolutely can't be life-changing.

Today, we have the story of Aadolanto, California, the town that tried to turn its failing fortunes

around by cultivating a weed economy.

Everybody was against us, you know, but it was like Aadolanto against the world, and

we took them on, and now we're winning.

That's coming up.
