What is the purpose of the Debt Heads podcast?
There are 3,200,000 podcasts in the world. So what's one more? Hi, I'm Jamie. And I'm Rachel.
Cheers.
And we're in debt. We are in debt. I have a lot of debt.
I became briefly TikTok famous. Hi, I'm Jamie. I'm in $15,000 of credit card debt. Let's spend the day together. Because I started talking about debt publicly.
And I didn't. But both of us have struggled with money over the years because we're deadbeats. Losers. We care more about dancing than making money.
Actually, we've struggled with money because most people do. And that's what this podcast is all about.
I have been struggling with debt for eight years. I have $250,000 of student loan debt. $36,000 of credit card debt. The first season of Debt Heads is a six-episode miniseries that investigates the architecture of personal finance.
In 10 minutes, I'll teach you how to be rich. You won't become rich until you understand this. And the myths of financial responsibility. If you have poor money management, you really can't blame anybody except yourself.
You unbelievable little children people. And uncovers the deeper structures that have created an economy that feels unsafe for most people.
I call the debt machine this system of laws, policies, and cultural attitudes that is transferring money into the hands of wealthy people.
Does anybody choose to get old? Does anybody choose to be addicted to opioids? Does anybody choose to be in debt? The answer is no.
What personal experiences do the hosts share about debt?
Deadheads is not a chat podcast.
We're not sponsored by Helix mattresses.
Or Casper mattresses.
Or Purple mattresses.
Why are there so many mattresses and why did they corner the market on podcast advertising?
Good question.
This is a storytelling journey into our lives and yours. What's the first word I ever read?
Maces. We are endeavoring to tell the millennial story by exploring the insidious political and economic policies. Do you know what your interest rate is?
As well as the seismic but elusive cultural shift.
Spend, spend, spend is the marketing agenda. You can shop online. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Shopping is my cardio. That have defined America over the last four decades.
Let's go return the equipment of the job that is laying me off.
This isn't a lie if it's expensive. I'm getting priced out of living in America.
We're making this project because we know what it's like to struggle financially.
In a world that is increasingly difficult to live in.
As we like to say around here, we are not alone. You are not alone. Our first official season of the Deadheads podcast is coming out in early 2025.
And we want you to be the first to hear it.
