À propos de cet audio

If a billionaire donates money to a good cause, does that make them a good person? Hosts Emily Walsh and Daniel Moss are two married millennials who learned about financial crises by living through them, and now they’re diving into the wild world of the uber rich. They discuss financial crimes, the breakdown of the American dream, and why funding a museum doesn’t necessarily make you a good person. They get into the old timey rich, like the Rockafeller family, and current events, like why you might not want to shop at Walmart. Each week they’ll dive into a new wealthy person, give you the rundown on their lives, whatever “good things” they’ve done in the past, and why they might be a bummer.

  • P.T. Barnum Part One- Humbuggery At Its Finest
    Dec 2 2025

    This week we are beginning the story of P.T. Barnum aka "The Greatest Showman". He was a showman, museum owner, international celebrity, Politician, and of course co-owner of the Barnum and Bailey Circus.

    There is so much to get into in this story he was both a Con artist and a beloved entertainer, he maybe owned a slave woman for a short time but also became a big advocate for the abolitionist movement. He was a naturalist but also led to the deaths of SOOOO many elephants.

    We will talk about his childhood and his wily grandfather who loved playing practical jokes including one particularly cruel joke played on Young PT Barnum that lasted for over 10 years. Then we get into some of Barnum's early schemes, hoaxes, and humbugs.

    Then we will finish the episode with a very old blind slave woman named Joyce Heth who became Barnum's first major exhibition.

    So much to get into and we hope you enjoy it!
