Looking for the episode of "This American Life" about a Personal Finance Radio Show?


A few years ago the NPR radio show, "This American Life" did an episod that talked about a call in radio show. On this show people called in and asked questions about personal finance and debt. The point of the story was that while on the surface people were asking about personal finance, what made the show special was the human connection of people who were in tough straights and striving to be better off.

Anyway, I've looked through the "This American Life" website:

but am having troubling finding the show. Anyone know which one it is?

That doesn't really sound like the format of "This American Life". Are you sure it wasn't Talk of the Nation or something like that?

The "My Two Cents" episode is all I found:

Kenny is right. The segment that you want is at about 4:30 in the show. Look for the audio on the page that Kenny pointed to.
