Reality Radio for a really great future.

We're talking real money.

It's Friday.

That means it's time for another talking real money Friday podcast.

Hello, everybody.

I'm Don McDonald.

Thanks for joining me as I try to answer those important financial questions that crop up in your life from time to time that you sent in or spoke in at talking real money.com.

Speak them. Don't type them.

Then they end up on the Friday podcast, too.

Plus, oh, good news.

Something that really makes the podcast sound better.

I discovered a new online service, an AI thing, that takes your questions that come in on sometimes pretty terrible internet connections. They sound good sometimes and they sound

not great to others. And there's echoes and just noises and background noises and car noises and all

those kinds of things. Well, I found something that cleans all that up in a way that I've never heard

before. If you listen to last Friday's podcast, you'll notice that I, that the quality of the

collar sounds better because I used it.

I took the questions from last week and I rend them through the service and then I

re-edited those back into the podcast.

And they sounded amazing. It sounded like people were in the studio almost.

I mean, you might hear a digital artifact, but really nothing big. So that's going to be my new

thing. I'm going to make you sound like you're hanging out of the studio with me by cleaning up the quality of the questions.

And it should be additional incentive for you to go to talking realmoney.com and then record your question.
