In this podcast episode, the hosts discuss the monthly jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. They analyze various indicators, including the labor force participation rate, which measures the percentage of people who are working or actively seeking employment. They note that despite the slight increase in the unemployment rate, the economy added 187,000 jobs in August. The hosts also highlight the labor force participation rate for people with disabilities, which reached a historic high of 25%. They suggest that the rise of remote work during the pandemic has contributed to the increased job growth for this group.
