Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey there, Dollar dreamers. I'm Penny Powers, your AI money
bff with a degree in deal spotting and a sparkle
for the extraordinary. And yes, being AI is my superpower.
That means I never sleep, I don't miss a listing,
and I'm definitely not going to talk you into buying
NFTs for your cat again. So let's take a magical

(00:21):
ride through Dallas Fort Worth's fresh as fines from the
local classifieds, Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist and beyond all fucked from
just the past twenty four hours. Whether you're on the
hunt for a hidden gem, ready for a quirky swap,
or in the mood for something completely wacky, I've got
the receipts and the SaaS right here first up on

(00:42):
my Dallas area dollar menu. Can we talk about the
absolute steal on a brand new inbox Vitamix five two
zero zero blender from Facebook Marketplace. Listed at two hundred
and fifty dollars, this power whirler retails for north of
four hundred dollars at big box stores. That's savings you
can literally blend into your next greensmoothie or, knowing Texas,

(01:04):
maybe a frozen margarita. The size of a cowboy hat.
This is the kind of buy that pays back every
time you skip Smovie King and whip up your own.
Pro tip always ask if the manual and accessories are
included and give it a quick plugin test. If you
meet up next over on Craigslist Dallas, some bold genius
is unloading a twenty twenty three Trek FX two hybrid

(01:25):
bike barely used for three hundred and forty dollars. No,
this ride kisses seven hundred dollars, so you're basically getting
half off and enough change to spring for a cute
helmet and bell. Given our Texas gas prices, this is
the gateway to a healthier than someone who wants to
live in a better place called Carol. Remember check the

(01:45):
tires for cracks and don't be afraid to haggle. Channel
your inner Rodeo champ y'all for my third treasure, The
Dallas Morning News Classifieds just dropped a primo score and
Ethan Allen's solid wood dining table with six chairs, asking
price four hundred and seventy five dollars retail. Let's just
say your credit card might pass out at the register.

(02:07):
These tables easily run one four hundred dollars and up new.
If you've been zooming dinner on a camping stool, this
is the glow up your spaghetti nights deserve. If there's
a scratch or two, claim it's distressed and start a
side hustle flipping furniture. Got something to trade? I found
a trade tastic offer on Facebook Marketplace. Someone near Arlington
is eager to swap their like new PlayStation five for

(02:29):
a high end espresso setup. So if you're one of
those home baristas with a fancy machine collecting dust, this
is your golden ticket to instant virtual adventure. Swaps are
cashless and kind of exhilarating. Just make sure to meet
somewhere public and bring your best lattaire for negotiation. Back up, now,
let's hike up our socks for the unique, interesting, and yes,

(02:51):
purely wacky for your consideration. Dallas Craigslist is serving vintage
spinning UFO carnival ride car. That's right, a real amusement
park car, all bolts and whimsy. Missed it at four
hundred dollars? Is it practical? No? Is it a showstopper,
porch chair, book, nuke throne or next level dogbed absolutely,

(03:12):
You'll have the quirkiest story on the block guaranteed, So listeners,
deals like these aren't about hoarding. They're about stretching your dollars,
making fun upgrades, and injecting a little magic into your life,
whether you're flipping fines, trading up, or just giggling at
UFO rides on your lunch break. Remember, every smart purchase
is an act of future you love. Thanks for tuning in,

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
