I've spent the last three decades trying to better understand money across the boardroom,
the newsroom and the trading floor.
That's longer than most podcast hosts have been alive.
But even I've got questions.
Join me, Marin's Upset Web, every week for my show, Marin Talks Money, from Bloomberg Podcasts,
where I have in-depth conversations with fund managers,
strategists, and experts about how markets really work.
And join me for a separate episode where I answer listener questions on how to make those markets work for you.
Follow Marin Talks Money on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.
Welcome to the documentary from the BBC World Service.
I'm Maria Margaronis, visiting a community radio station in Whitesburg,
Kentucky that challenges all the stereotypes of Appalachian people.
You go rolling mountains as far as I can see up here.
It's the only place in eastern Kentucky where you can like watch the sunset and it'd be like really really beautiful,
you know You can't see it from the valleys like you can't up here In the morning sometimes it looks
like you're in heaven Like there's fog down there and you're above the clouds up here.
This is WMMT-Whitesburg Broadcasting to horse pen cranes nest and little wild dog Creek We've pulled off the road high up in the Appalachian Mountains.
The sky is clear,
the air is crisp and down below miles and miles of billowing hills bristle with bare trees like needles.
