There's so much news happening around the world that we're somehow supposed to stay on top of.

That's why we launched The Big Take.

It's a daily podcast from Bloomberg and I Heart Radio that turns down the volume a bit

to give you some space to think.

I'm Wes Kosova.

Each weekday I dig into one important story and talk about why it matters.

Listen to The Big Take on The I Heart Radio App, Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen.

Hi everybody, it's Chuck and I am introducing this week's Stuff You Should Know Selects episode.

This is from the Vault from 2.009, 2009, November 12th.

And it's called How Population Works.

And I picked this one because I remember this being a super cool episode because it was

one of those where I thought population, what does that even mean?

And how can we make a show out, a full show about this?

And it turned out to be great.

Josh, I think it was his pick initially and it's just really, really cool.

So if you don't even know what how population works might mean, give it a listen.

I think it'll be pretty intrigued.
