Debt Heads

by Jamie Feldman & Rachel Webster

Jamie and Rachel are in debt. So is almost everyone they know. So is almost everyone you know. DEBT HEADS is a narrative investigation into how we all got here — not as a personal failing, but as a national one. With original reporting, personal stories, the occasional musical number, and zero shame about your iced coffee habit. If thinking about money sends you spiraling, we want you to know: You are not alone. We are not alone. Welcome to Debt Heads. Brand new episodes drop every Thursday.

YES!! I think everyone should listen to this podcast! Thank you both for your honesty and courage to talk frankly about the monster demon-debt! I will be sharing this with my friends and my 12 year old daughter!

This is a breath of fresh air if you enjoy listening to people talk about money. Unlike a lot of podcasts were it can seem like it’s super simple just follow XYZ. This feels like you are just talking with some friends and is the perfect podcast to listen to well doing work.
