What is Debt Heads?

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.
