About this episode

The clothes you wear project an image to others. But those same clothes you wear influence you as well. Listen and discover how different clothes and different colors you wear change the way you act and even how you think of yourself. https://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/03/science/clothes-and-self-perception.html


Think of all the different kinds of popular music there are: country, rock, hip-hop, pop, R&B, jazz and more. All that music came from somewhere. And those musical origins tell some fascinating stories. If you enjoy music, listen to my conversation with Kelefa Sanneh. He is a writer for The New Yorker, former pop music critic for the New York Times, contributor to the CBS Sunday Morning program and author of the book Major Labels: A History of Popular Music in Seven Genres (https://amzn.to/3npafT2). You are going to hear some great stories!


Who hasn’t found themselves in money trouble at some point? One big reason why that happens is that people don’t closely examine how much money they earn or how they spend it.

Jill is a certified financial planner, award winning business analyst for CBS News, host of the Jill on Money podcast and radio show and author of the book The Great Money Reset (https://amzn.to/3JGJ91e). If you want to get some sound financial advice and ways to get a clear view of your financial life, you’ll want to hear what Jill has to say.
