A Thousand Natural Shocks With Gabe S. Dunn

In the very first of Bad With Money's new 'Breakdowns and Takedowns' episodes -- where Gaby and an expert guest review and recap various money media so you don't have to -- Gaby and former Goldman Sachs employee/TV writer Claire Friedman tackle Adam McKay's mortgage crisis-explainer dramedy 'The Big Short.' Claire shares the secrets and truths behind being on Wall Street around the time of the 2008 recession and the duo further break down and explore both the film and the concepts it's trying to convey. If you didn't understand the mortgage crisis OR The Big Short, Claire and Gaby make sure that now you do. (Although neither of them are Margot Robbie. Sorry.) On Friday, you can join Gaby and Celebrity Book Club host Chelsea Devantez as they lose their minds over the clueless 2014 memoir #GirlBoss.

On today’s show Gaby reads some PRESSING OPINIONS from Facebook, Instagram, and Discord comments. They read two 5 star Apple reviews, and welcome our new Patrons. Then in the second half of the show, a listener makes Gaby cry, as they go through our huge backlog of emails! Some of the emails are about finances and chronic illness with suggestions for disability and money content, a suggestion for an episode about Canadian co-ops, a very thorough and hopeful email about finding this show during a bipolar episode, a timely one about the fall of Roe V Wade, one about IRAs not being as useful as having cash on hand, and one from someone who claims to be an ethical landlady. Then, a preview of our upcoming pet insurance episode with one email from a veterinarian worried about being called a scam, and one voicemail about pet rent from Rebecca from NH, and an email complimenting my Bad With Money book. If you're the other person in this small town who ordered my book, go find Lisa! PLEASE write in or call in for our listener generated episode about abortion, childcare, IVF, pregnancy and surrogacy.  For a full transcript of this episode, visit: https://bit.ly/3If1jWE Gaby Dunn Instagram: @GabyRoad BWM Instagram: @bwmpod BWM Facebook group: http://tinyurl.com/badwithmoneyfb The BWM Discord channel: https://discord.gg/dAdxj4JMER Find Gaby on Patreon: patreon.com/gabydunn Shop gabydunn.com/shop for merch!

First, an announcement! A brand new co-host is joining the podcast for a chunk of episodes! They're going to join for some mailbags, answer your questions, become our collective money guinea pig reporting in the field, and learn about financial topics from their unique, beginner's POV (you know, one that isn't Gaby's). Then, to honor the 7th anniversary of the passage of Obergefell v. Hodges on June 26, 2015, Gaby and their partner Mal Blum have a frank discussion about the long history of gay marriage, where we were when gay marriage passed, our future as a couple, and what the recent overturning of Roe V. Wade means for queer and trans people.  tw: homophobic language, trauma, the AIDS crisis, abortion and death, racism For a full transcript of this episode, visit: https://bit.ly/3IfgeQH Gaby Dunn Instagram: @GabyRoad BWM Instagram: @bwmpod BWM Facebook group: http://tinyurl.com/badwithmoneyfb The BWM Discord channel: https://discord.gg/dAdxj4JMER Find Gaby on Patreon: patreon.com/gabydunn Shop gabydunn.com/shop for merch!

Stay tuned for the end of the show when Gaby makes an announcement about some HUGE changes coming to the format of the show -- and maybe an addition of a ...co-host?!? You're not gonna wanna miss this. And then, a good old fashioned Q&A with Rachel Rodgers, author of We Should All Be Millionaires, using your questions from the email address, Discord server, and Instagram comments and DMs. We talk about the benefits of being annoying, being a Black capitalist, family members and addiction, and you know, actual financial advice. Do we agree with everything she says? No! But is this a very fun, educational, and chaotic interview? Absolutely! PLUS, who the hell shaded Gaby on their close friends Insta story for promoting myself???

Did you know trans people make more money than other members of the queer community in some cases?? Why do LGB people experience higher rates of financial anxiety when dealing with banks and the government? What is "cascading homophobia?" This week, Gaby breaks down the BRAND NEW in-depth money study about financial discrimination against queer people. The Debt Free Guys John and David, husbands and hosts of the Queer Money podcast, co-conducted the BIGGEST, most current, and most specific LGBTQ survey to update the financial findings about our community. This is the first study and poll of its kind at this level and Gaby and the guys go over all that we learned about the experiences of LGBTQ people around finances. You're not gonna wanna miss empowering yourself by learning all this real, new data and what it means for you and the queer community.

This week, we have an in-depth email criticizing our medical tourism email from a Mexican listener, another email about medical liens, and another about doing medical testing studies for money. Then, an email from Mary about being a caretaker for a disabled child and who money media leaves behind in this world. Next, some discussions on the Discord channel including a Canadian reflection on the owning of property and ethics of landlords, a vouching for Geoblue insurance for medical tourism, deciding if pet insurance or a veterinarian is a scam, and an incredibly detailed look into veganism from a speaker on the vegan circuit who talks about if veganism is an “eating disorder.” This one is a DOOZY.

What does it mean to turn a profit when your metric of success isn't necessarily money? This week, Gaby talks to Dr. Alex Ketchum, who studies the queer, feminist and lesbian history of restaurants, about how to run a lesbian and feminist coffee house, bar or bookstore, the long and fascinating history of women-run, queer, and feminist spaces in the US, and Gaby's own torn ideas of being community-minded while needing to sell their work. Then, Gaby speaks to the Fiscal Femme Ashley Feinstein Gerstley about how women learn business at traditional business schools, getting certified by WBENC as an official women-led/women-owned business, and the limitations of "financial adulting." This is a very informative and thought-provoking episode. Get into it!

Ok on today’s show, Gaby reads a 5-star Apple review and some discord comments about our Dan Olson crypto episode and in what order listeners should check out the Part 1 and Part 2 episodes. Then, a funny email from Darci about corporate pride, one from Anonymous about high childcare costs in the Bay Area, and one from Betty about a credit score error that went in her favor. Should she get it fixed? Or take the maybe-dangerous win for her credit? Next, an email about the ethics of participating in medical testing for money and a reply to our latest medical tourism episode. Finally, an email from Nadine about real estate investing and AirBNB worries, one from Ariel about pelvic floor physical therapy and medical debt, and another from Nirali explaining more about "carnism" in relation to our prior veganism episode with Christopher Soul Eubanks and Andrew Lowe.  For a full transcript of this episode, visit: https://bit.ly/3mO8QBP BWM Instagram: @bwmpod BWM Facebook group: http://tinyurl.com/badwithmoneyfb The BWM Discord channel: https://discord.gg/dAdxj4JMER Find Gaby on Patreon: patreon.com/gabydunn Shop gabydunn.com/shop for merch!
