[Warning] This episode contains explicit language and explicit themes. Listener discretion is advised.

Why is it that whenever the topic of money comes up Danny always thinks of a dorky song from the original "Tom & Jerry" animated cartoon? Oh, yeah. Probably because Mamma Archive always sang it whenever the topic came up or she was feeling particularly evil. Nevertheless, that song does carry a certain tone to it much like this review. The subject of money is dangerous but must be discussed, and for Danny you can't understand anything unless you look at the origin. Dissecting the history of money and how the modern age of credit came about, Danny uses the thesis of the author to talk about the morality of money, the history, and historical writing. It's a chronological look at money and how individuals need to educate themselves on the topic in order to remove the negative stereotype of evil. Come enjoy a dense, nonfictional narrative about one of the most divisive topics on Earth.
