Scary Times, An Economic Collapse & Terrible Hiking Buddies
Description
This week, Spin the Wheel is back and it lands on September 15, 2008, the day Lehman Brothers collapsed and the global financial system nearly went with it. We’ll dig into the biggest bankruptcy in U.S. history, how it triggered the Great Recession, and why it’s still a scary reminder of where we stand in the world today. And yes, we briefly talk about what has happened over the last week and how it’s a scary time.
Then, it’s time for some lighter fare: the Lions’ latest showdown, a recap of the 2025 Emmys (spoiler: The Studio made history, The Pitt pulled a shocker, and a 15-year-old is now an Emmy winner), and a quick dive into personal life. From Maine weddings, hiking misadventures, and why my foot still hasn’t forgiven me but I hope my girlfriend has.
Finally, we close with the Top 5 People You’d Hate to Get Stuck on a Hike With. Spoiler: Ben Franklin somehow takes the crown, and yes, James Corden made the list (again).
