The Job Market Podcast with Fexingo: Hiring Trends, Unemployment, and Labor Market Updates

Every weekday, Lucas and Luna dissect the U.S. labor market through the lens of the latest BLS jobs report, JOLTS data, unemployment claims, and payroll trends. They analyze which sectors are hiring—and which are cutting—using real Bureau of Labor Statistics numbers, Fed Beige Book excerpts, and shifts in wage growth. Conversations range from the impact of AI on clerical roles to the geography of remote work vacancies, and from unionization waves in the auto industry to the churn in tech layoffs versus healthcare hiring. Lucas brings the journalistic rigor, Luna the probing questions about what the data means for job seekers, HR leaders, and policymakers. No hot takes, no fluff—just a grounded, number-driven look at who is working, who isn't, and why. Can a 3.7% unemployment rate hide a fragile underbelly of part-time and gig workers? That's the kind of question they tackle, episode after episode.
