1
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 1: If there's a gap, it's not twenty cents on the dollar.

2
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: But if if that was in fact true, yes, of

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: course that's not right. But it is true as as

4
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: far as we know. That's that really is what the

5
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: data shows. I think, yes, it is about the data

6
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 1: show twenty cents on the dollar. Why do you think

7
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 1: women make less money than men? I'm Rebecca Greenfield, and

8
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 1: I'm hosting a new Bloomberg podcast called The Paycheck. Over

9
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 1: six episodes, we're going to investigate a big, expensive, global mystery.

10
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 1: Why in women still make less money less than men?

11
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: On the paycheck? We're going to show you what less

12
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 1: looks like. I told him, my host, how to go

13
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: to Birmingham, Alabama and bata charge with the equal and

14
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: pull him a condition. But I will tell you if

15
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: I'm dark, we will be in this spot for at

16
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: least eight years. And they said, well, what time you

17
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 1: won't delite? We'll hear from a lot of women who

18
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 1: finally spoke out, I'm a fat black woman. People are

19
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: really looking at me like, have you lost your mind?

20
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: You should just be grateful they let you in. You know,

21
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: at some point you step away, you lift up your

22
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 1: head and you realize that things are not right. Well,

23
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 1: also dick into why the pay gaps still exists, and

24
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: then we'll explore what's being done to fix it, what

25
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: happens when a whole country takes on the paygap. You

26
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: probably have a very different system from ours, and we'll

27
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: see how some women are taking things into their own hands.
