Hi everyone. As a moth listener, we know you enjoy the magic that comes from first-person

storytelling and are deeply curious about people's lived experiences. That's why we'd like to present a new

podcast we think you'll enjoy. It's called What We Spend, and it allows us a unique window into a

subject matter that feels taboo to openly discuss.

Money.

In each episode, host Courtney Harrell talks with one person as they document a full week of their lives and all the ways money has factored into it.

People from all over the country and all walks of life share the ways they make money, the ways they spend

money, and all the thoughts and emotions they have along the way.

The conversations are intimate, thoughtful, often fun, sometimes emotional, but always real.

In this preview, we hear from Kelly as she navigates life with the all too familiar burden

of outstanding student loan debt.

You know how you always want to know about everyone else's money? You do, right? Like,

you'll see someone buying something you want or taking some amazing vacation and you think,

how can they afford that? Or you meet your taking some amazing vacation and you think, how can they afford

that? Or you meet your friend's new girlfriend and she has some very impressive job and you think,

how much money does she make? I think when it comes to money, even if you don't want to admit it,

we're all a little nosy. But I don't know, I actually think that's good. I think we should

be talking about money more. And all the ways, big and small, that it impacts our lives.

On this show, we are actually going to do that. We are going to go somewhere that we almost never get to go, deep into the heart of someone

else's finances.

Here's how this is going to work.
