• Penny for Your Thoughts

  The U.S. Treasury is officially ending production of the penny, and our sweet, sweet Mr. Lincoln coin is sailing off into the sunset. In this episode, hosts Jerry and Kaylee discuss the economic and cultural ripple effects of this decision. What does this mean for cash transactions, the 99-cent store, and the future of physical currency in an increasingly digital world? Join us as we break down the cents and sensibility of a world without the one-cent coin. You won't want to miss our two cents on the topic.Want to learn more about other topics?
