Ready to brave the Black Friday madness? Don’t hit “add to cart” just yet! In this episode, tech guru Bridget Carey from CNET joins us to share her insider tips on navigating the sea of deals and avoiding those flashy-but-fishy doorbusters. Whether you’re hunting for the latest gadgets or trying to resist that smart fridge you probably don’t need, Bridget’s advice will save your wallet (and maybe your sanity).

But that’s not all! We’re diving into why mortgage rates are still climbing even as the Fed cuts interest rates, what it means for your financial plans, and whether paying off your mortgage early is worth the hype. Along the way, we sprinkle in personalized money moves, tech nostalgia, and even some surprising theme park innovations (hint: the future is now, and it’s a little quirky).

It’s an episode jam-packed with expert advice, a few detours into saxophone mysteries, and practical tips to keep your finances (and holiday shopping) in check.
