Going for Broke is a new podcast about Americans on the edge. On this show, famed journalist and broadcaster Ray Suarez talks to people who have lost jobs, lost their homes and sometimes lost the narrative thread of their lives. But with those hardships, they’ve gained valuable insights into the problems facing millions of people in this country. On Going for Broke, we hear about the struggles they’ve been through, and the solutions they want to see become reality. Going for Broke launches October 18 from the Economic Hardship Reporting Project and The Nation. Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
