Stimmy checks, the productivity paradox, the housing theory of everything – these are just a few of the topics covered with our guest, Kyla Scanlon. It’s tricky to describe who Kyla is and what exactly she does because, yes, she has a massive following on TikTok… but she’s not simply an influencer. She also has an incredible newsletter, but she isn’t simply a writer, even though she has written for the Times, NY Magazine, and Bloomberg. AND, her brand-new book, “In This Economy?: How Money and Markets Really Work,” was just released yesterday. But we think that ultimately Kyla is an educator because she excels at bridging the gap between the complexities of our modern economy and everyday living. It’s clear that she is passionate about empowering individuals with the knowledge they need to make informed financial decisions. Plus, she does all of this with a touch of humor while not ignoring the philosophical angle as well… happy listening!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
