The Truth About Becoming Wealthy & The Hidden Damage of Our Digital Life
Descripción del Episodio
Most credit cards have that little 3- or 4-digit security code you constantly get asked for when shopping online. It can feel like a nuisance—but that tiny number plays a surprisingly important role in reducing fraud in a very simple and effective way. https://www.chase.com/personal/credit-cards/education/basics/why-do-some-sites-not-require-cvv
We tend to think of financial advice as timeless: buy a house, invest for the long term, diversify your portfolio, put your money in index funds. But history tells a much messier story. There were periods when stocks performed terribly, when home ownership was a bad investment, and when other “sensible” advice turned out to be disastrously wrong. Joseph Moore, historian, investor, and author of How to Get Rich in American History: 300 Years of Financial Advice That Worked (& Didn’t) (https://amzn.to/4uDCdrv), explains how financial “wisdom” changes over time, why so much money advice is shaped by the era we happen to live in, and what history can teach us about building wealth today.
We’ve all heard the warnings about sitting too much and spending too much time staring at screens. But modern life practically demands it. Hours at a desk, then more hours scrolling, streaming, emailing, and checking notifications. The problem is, researchers are beginning to discover that this screen-heavy lifestyle may quietly affect far more than we realize—from energy and sleep to mood, focus, and long-term health. Manoush Zomorodi, award-winning journalist, host of NPR’s TED Radio Hour, and author of Body Electric: The Hidden Health Costs of the Digital Age and New Science to Reclaim Your Well-Being (https://amzn.to/3PraStx), shares what science is uncovering about the physical and mental toll of modern digital life—and why small, surprisingly simple changes may make a meaningful difference.
Revenge can feel incredibly satisfying—at least in your imagination. But what happens after you actually get even with someone? Does revenge deliver the relief and closure people expect, or does it create something else entirely? https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/if-love-could-kill/202506/revenge-from-grievance-to-grief

The Last 12 Weeks
By shows
In 1992, David Wood was convicted of murdering young women and girls and burying them in the desert outside El Paso, earning him the nickname the Desert Killer. More than 30 years later, his lawyers have one last chance to argue his innocence and stop his execution. “The Last 12 Weeks” follows a team of capital defense lawyers as they try to save their client’s life. The series, produced by Serial Productions and The New York Times in collaboration with The Marshall Project, focuses on the high stakes and at times bizarre work involved in trying to halt an execution. With an extraordinary level of access to a capital case in its final stretch, the longtime death penalty reporter Maurice Chammah takes listeners into the room with the lawyers as the clock ticks down. Maurice and Alvin Melathe, a producer, follow members of the defense team as they look for alternate suspects, try to find new evidence to poke holes in the case, and track down hard-to-find witnesses. In the end, will the lawyers’ efforts be enough to persuade a deeply skeptical court system — and stop an execution three decades in the making? “The Last 12 Weeks.” A five-part series … on a deadline.
