このコンテンツについて

If a billionaire donates money to a good cause, does that make them a good person? Hosts Emily Walsh and Daniel Moss are two married millennials who learned about financial crises by living through them, and now they’re diving into the wild world of the uber rich. They discuss financial crimes, the breakdown of the American dream, and why funding a museum doesn’t necessarily make you a good person. They get into the old timey rich, like the Rockafeller family, and current events, like why you might not want to shop at Walmart. Each week they’ll dive into a new wealthy person, give you the rundown on their lives, whatever “good things” they’ve done in the past, and why they might be a bummer.

  • Woman's National Soccer Team Part One- Winner Winner Kechup and Cracker Dinner!
    2025/06/03

    Ok This Week we are beginning to talk about the Women's National Soccer Teams Fight for equal pay. I'm very pro women's sports in general and really excited about this series.

    We Start out with an uplifting note talking about the 2019 World cup where the WNT won for the second time in a row right after banding together to sue their employer the US Soccer Federation on the grounds of Equal Pay discrimination based on Gender. The women were demanding equal pay and equal treatment as the men's national team.

    Then We jump back in time to the first ever Women's national team and their struggles to earn respect for their achievements and try to stay financially afloat all while juggling training, tournaments, and the part time jobs that they are forced to take because of their low income as athletes.

    Also another Shoutout to Emilys Dont Tell Set! "Not Another Teen Mom" just dropped on Dont Tell's Youtube page. It is so funny and very well produced and we would really appreciate it If you could watch it and send it to a few friends. Thank you for Listening!!

  • Current Events Mini Episode Part Two- Two Dumb Billys
    2025/05/27

    We have had quite the week. Baby classes, crazy work stuff, shows, and ofcourse a three day long family baby shower event. Unfortunately that left very little time to prepare a fully researched episode. So we decided to do a bit of a current events roundup on all of our favorite crooks and frauds and have a little check in with ourselves.

    Also just realized we have recorded over 100 episodes! Crazy this one will be 105??? Time flies when you are self medicating the existential dread of late stage capitalism with a bit of humor!!

    We are of course once again in our bed. In our coziest of close and this is gonna be a good time! The episode will probably be a bit shorter than usual but we are going to have fun with it and it will still have some interesting and fun facts and a small teaser for the next series. Hope you enjoy!

  • Buffalo Creek Disaster Part Two- That is a Damn Dam!
    2025/05/20

    This week we wrap up the story of the Buffalo Creek Disaster, when a poorly built dam system gave way to a flood and killed 125 people, leaving thousands homeless.

    We get into the lengthy court settlement, the investigation into "psychic impairment" and the idea of monetary compensation for mental trauma, the actual timeline of the disaster as far as what the owners, the Pittston Company, were doing at that time, and we discuss several women who gave warnings who definitely should have been listened to!
