What does economics have to do with food banks, dating apps, and the Canadian arts scene? In this episode of Moolala: Money Made Simple, host Bruce Sellery sits down with Alex Mayyasi, a longtime contributor to NPR's wildly popular Planet Money podcast and author of the new book Planet Money: A Guide to the Economic Forces That Shape Your Life. He is here **to unpack how economic principles touch everything from tariffs and remote work to the "stable marriage problem" behind dating apps. Then, Caryl Newbery-Mitchell, Senior Vice President at MNP's Consumer Insolvency Practice, breaks down exactly what a Licensed Insolvency Trustee (LIT) can and can't do to help Canadians tackle unmanageable debt, including how a consumer proposal works and how to spot predatory debt advisors online. Finally, consultant Jamie Bennett of Lord Cultural Resources makes a compelling case for why Canadian arts organizations desperately need better access to banking and what it would take to finally get them there.
