    Marketplace Weekend for Friday, October 28, 2016

    This week, the New York Times’ Quentin Hardy and Marketplace’s Jed Kim play the Long and Short game, and debate sports and Christmas. Guest host Molly Wood talks with the University of North Carolina’s Zeynep Tufeckci about the big, messy world of media consolidation, plus we hear from a man whose job is to create haunted houses. Marketplace’s Andy Uhler fills us in on why there’s too much cheese, but not enough avocado. Finally, writer, chef, and world traveler Anthony Bourdain takes the Marketplace Quiz.

    In this week's show, haunted house creator John Murdy explains the ins and outs of a good (and scary) haunted house.
