  • 3 People Who Shaped Money in America: Hamilton, FDR, and Bogle

    3 People Who Shaped Money in America: Hamilton, FDR, and Bogle
    Jun 23 2026
    A handful of people quietly shaped the money system we all use today. In this episode, Ryan tells the stories of three of them: Alexander Hamilton, who built America's financial credibility and credit; Franklin Roosevelt, whose New Deal gave us Social Security, FDIC insurance, and the SEC; and Jack Bogle, who put low-cost index investing within reach of ordinary people.

    Ryan and Aaron connect each figure to something you use or rely on right now, from the safety of your bank deposits to the funds in your retirement account. A short, story-driven history that makes the modern financial world make a lot more sense.

  • Money Myths Debunked: 3 Common Beliefs That Hold You Back

    Money Myths Debunked: 3 Common Beliefs That Hold You Back
    Jun 16 2026
    Some of the most common money beliefs are flat wrong, and they quietly hold people back. In this episode, Ryan and Aaron break down three of the biggest: that investing is just gambling, that you should always pay off debt as fast as possible, and that budgeting means restriction.

    For each one, Ryan explains the kernel of truth, where the myth goes off the rails, and how to think about it more clearly. Investing and gambling are not the same thing. The fastest debt payoff is not always the smartest one. And a good budget is about freedom, not punishment. A myth-busting episode that can change how you handle your money.

  • How to Prepare Financially for a Layoff Before It Happens

    How to Prepare Financially for a Layoff Before It Happens
    Jun 9 2026
    The best time to prepare for a layoff is before it ever happens. In this episode, Ryan walks through a step-by-step plan to get financially ready, starting with your survival number, the bare-minimum amount your household needs to cover each month.

    From there he covers building an emergency fund that fits that number, trimming fixed costs ahead of time, and knowing your options for health coverage like COBRA and what to do with a 401(k) when you leave a job. The point is to replace fear with a plan, so a job loss becomes a setback you are ready for instead of a crisis. This is education, not personal advice, so tailor the steps to your own situation.
