We all like to think we’re responsible with money. But if you think you never throw money away, maybe it’s time to think again. Because there are probably things you pay too much for, and things you pay for that you could get for nothing.

That’s what we’re talking about in this week’s “Money” podcast.

As usual, I share the stage with longtime financial journalist and fellow podcaster Miranda Marquit. This week I went down a long list of things we could get for free, or at least cheaper, and Miranda offered up her opinion on whether they’re valid or silly.

Sit back, relax and give it a listen!

Not familiar with podcasts?

A podcast is basically a radio show you can listen to anytime, either by downloading it to your smartphone or other device, or listening online.

Podcasts are totally free. They can be any length (ours are typically just under a half-hour), feature any number of people and cover any topic you can possibly think of. You can listen at home, in the car, while jogging or, if you’re like me, when riding your bike.

You can listen to our latest podcasts here or download them to your phone from any number of places, including Apple, Spotify, RadioPublic, Stitcher and RSS.

If you haven’t listened to a podcast yet, give it a try, then subscribe to ours. You’ll be glad you did!
