Nicole is joined by Tiffany James (financial expert, CEO of Modernblkgirl) for a stock talk. Tiffany tells Nicole her best-performing investments, the opportunity she sees in the market and (this is the best part!) the actual stocks she has her eyes on... and let's just say, they're investments that weren't on our radar, but now, totally are!For more Tiffany, check out Modernblkgirl: https://www.modernblkgirl.com/Want to start investing, but don't know where to begin?

On today's weekly roundup of the biggest headlines and how they affect your finances, Nicole explains: how the WeWork bankruptcy could affect your finances (even if you don't work at a WeWork!), why dating apps are struggling, and why Mint went extinct.

One of the highest-profile trials of the year, the trial of FTX founder Sam Bankman Fried, has come to an exciting and dramatic conclusion. To help Nicole break down the details of the trial, Nicole calls up blockchain and cryptocurrency expert Ash Bennington. They dig into the fate of SBF, crypto— and, not kidding, the potential comeback of FTX.Find Ash's book wherever you get your favorite books (like here!).Want to start investing, but don't know where to begin?

Last week, the United States House of Representatives passed a plan to provide $14.3 billion in aid to Israel. So, clearly, the conflict in the Middle East will continue to be a big headline in financial news. A few weeks ago, Nicole interviewed Dan Senor, a foreign policy expert, who said that Israel is a country uniquely primed for resilience. But as the war wages on in Israel, resilience feels like it’s far away— or even impossible. To explain how peace could be possible in the region, Nicole talks to Israel's Ambassador to Germany, Ron Prosor. Nicole and Ambassador Prosor talk about the future of the region, demystify some misconceptions about life in Israel and the question of a cease-fire.Ambassador Ron Prosor became Israel's 16th Permanent Representative to the United Nations in June 2011. With over two decades of experience at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Prosor has earned an international reputation as one of Israel's most distinguished diplomats. He served for nearly four years as Israel's Ambassador to the United Kingdom and served as the Director General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs ('04-'07), overseeing the work of the Foreign Ministry during the disengagement from Gaza in 2005.

For a long time, if someone had a story to tell, they'd say they "have a book" in them. Now, they "have a Netflix show" in them. Today, Nicole unpacks the actual process of getting a show on a streamer with Ryan Kalil. Ryan is a former professional football player— he primarily played with the Carolina Panthers and was a three-time All-Pro. Now, Ryan is in the production world. Ryan founded the production company Mortal Media with basketball player Blake Griffin. He explains the players in the media world, and how you can get your big idea to the big screen. Plus, he has advice for anyone looking to have a second career.Want to start investing, but don't know where to begin?

In recent weeks, there has been a ton of money news that is nothing short of… ridiculous. And to give us some comic relief around these headlines that are almost too bananas to believe, Nicole talks to someone who knows a thing or two about ridiculousness, it’s Steelo Brim. Steelo is an art collector, a comedian, a restaurant investor, a musician, and, yes - one of the hosts of MTV’s Ridiculousness. You’re going to hear from Steelo again on another Money Rehab episode all about the ROI on art investing. But for now, we’re headed to the Wild West of money news. To learn more about Steelo's projects, keep up with him on Instagram @steelobrim

What do the NFL, Goldman Sachs, Twitter and SoFi have in common? That would be Anthony Noto - veteran executive and Nicole's guest today. Nicole and Anthony talk about what people should be able to expect from their banks, why SoFi bought a stadium, and Anthony's response to Elon Musk's plans to get into the payment space.Watch SoFi's Face of Finance video referenced by Nicole and Anthony here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Xzfceq29ts
