In this episode of Something More with Chris Boyd, Chris, and Jeff welcome Social Security
expert and author Marsha Mantell for an in-depth conversation on the realities of Social Security
today. From the program's looming funding challenges to the widespread myths about
bankruptcy, grandfathering, and claiming strategies. Marsha breaks down what retirees really
need to know. They explore her new book, Social Security: Lightly Toasted, Not Burned, and
discuss the program's history, why people are panicking, and why they should not. They outline
both the math and the mindset behind smart claiming decisions. Whether you are single, married,
divorced, or widowed, Marsha explains why context matters, why the rules are not always
intuitive, and how this decision fits into broader retirement and financial planning. If Social
Security feels confusing or overwhelming, this episode brings clarity, calm, and practical
guidance for mapping your own best path forward.

Betrayal Season 5
Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
