Hello and welcome to the Space Bees edition of Slate Money, your guide to the Business and Finance News of the week.

If you are a Slate Plus listener, you will remember from last week we had a

discussion of space bees as they pertained to Anna. What was it? Adam Smith and capitalism. Adam Smith

and capitalism. So this week we have a special guest, Mr. Tim Fernholtz. Hi, Tim.

Hello. Tim Fernholtz is here to talk to us about space bees as they pertain to...

Capitalism once again.

Capitalism once again.

Somehow, space bees are a running theme.

Who knew that space bees are going to be a running theme on Slate Money?

But Space Bees are a running theme on Slate Money.

Welcome, Tim. You are not only

a writer for Quartz. You are also a published author. It still feels weird to hear someone say that.

So we are going to talk about your book. We are also, of course, going to talk about this whole Facebook and Cambridge Analytica

mischugas because much as we have talked about these things in the past, I feel like this week

is the week to revisit, for obvious reasons. If you don't know what I'm talking about,

you should probably like turn on the television or read the news or something because you have clearly been living under a rock for the past week.

We are also going to talk about Wealthfront, which is a robo advisor, which made some interesting changes last month.

And I feel I need to get a couple things off my chest.

So that's going to come later.

But first, let's talk the final frontier.

Tim, tell me about your book.
