Yeet the Rich
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.

Aimee Semple McPherson Part One- ZIP ZAP ZOP! For Jesus!
This week we are diving in the world of the famous pentecostal preacher Aimee Semple McPherson. Born on a small farm in Canada in the late 1800s, she was one of the first women preaching and traveled the country, eventually landing herself in Los Angeles, one of the most famous people in the country and a millionaire before the age of 35.
Then one day she went into the ocean, and thousands searched for her, and the month long search would only increase her imfamy, but we'll get into that next week! This week we get into the background and lay the groundwork for her rise to fame.
