I feel like my relationship with money has changed a lot as I've gotten older. It mostly used to be about, am I paying my bills and putting some money away? Now there are so many moving pieces and competing priorities, so I wanna feel like I know exactly where I stand, not just hope that everything's okay. So that's what I like about Monarch. Having our accounts, investments, savings goals, and spending all in one place, it gives me a much clearer picture. There have definitely been months where I've looked at our spending breakdown and thought, wait, we spent that much on that? Seeing it all laid out makes those patterns really obvious. I also love Monarch's AI assistant. I can just ask questions about my finances instead of digging through transactions myself. It definitely takes some of the mental load out of managing money and helps me feel like we actually know where we stand. So write your own money story with Monarch.

All right, everybody, a little behind the scenes here. We're recording this podcast from our Industrious offices in New York City. It has been an amazing setup for more than a year now because Industrious takes care of the workplace so we can focus on bringing you the news.

Jill Wagner (1:17)

That's right, so the main MONEWS office is in an Industrious location in Manhattan, and we've also turned a room down the hall into the podcast studio, Moshe, where you and I record the show. And if we ever need a meeting room, somewhere quiet to work or just a change of scenery, it's all right here.

Mosheh Oinounou (1:33)

Yeah, and I have to mention the snacks. They got breakfast in the morning often, snacks all day long, coffee, soft drinks. Among the advantages here to working out of an Industrious, they're more than 200 locations, so we have our main base here, but we will use an Industrious when we're traveling around the country. And if you've been looking for a better place to work, whether it's for a day, to have a meeting, to get outside the house, or your business is building up over time, but you're not ready to rent a whole office space, then Industrious is for you.

Jill Wagner (1:59)

And we've got a special offer for Mo News listeners. First time day pass users can get 50% off at mo.news.industrious. Check out the space for yourself at mo.news.industrious. That's 50% off your first day pass.

Mosheh Oinounou (2:13)

Come be our neighbor. Check it out.

Hey everybody, it is Thursday, October 8th. You're listening to the Mo News podcast. I'm Moshe Oinounou.

Jill Wagner (2:24)

And I am Jill Wagner. This is the place where we bring you just the facts.

Mosheh Oinounou (2:29)

And we read all the news and read between the lines so you don't have to. I got some breaking news for everybody.

Do tell. And it's Adrienne Beray who played DJ Tanner on Full House. She has now welcomed her second grandchild in less than two weeks. She is 50 years old and she has two grandkids, that little girl from Full House.

Jill Wagner (2:48)

Mosheh, as they would say on the show, hell rude. Is this something we need?

Mosheh Oinounou (2:53)

That was the line from the other daughter. That was the line from the other daughter. But yes, it definitely applies here. Cut it out.

Jill Wagner (3:01)

That's probably the better. That's probably more appropriate here.

File under the 100th reason why I feel old.

Mosheh Oinounou (3:09)

Yeah. By the way, we mentioned this also because Candace Cameron is among the cast members from Full House who are followers of Mo News on Instagram. We got Stamos by Candace Cameron-Barre. We got a few of them. Follow us over on the Instagram page. And so really remarkable. She's got two grandkids in two weeks.

So a big congrats to her as we all just try to deal with the fact that DJ from Full House is a grandmom.

Jill Wagner (3:37)

Well, Candace, if you're listening, congratulations.

Mosheh Oinounou (3:40)

She calls herself a candy gram, by the way. Candace.

SPEAKER_3 (3:44)

Oh, that's cute.

Jill Wagner (3:45)

As my second child is four. Oh, I guess I'm a little behind.

Mosheh Oinounou (3:50)

We're going to celebrate when you become a grandma here on this show, Jill. It's many, many years away from now.

Jill Wagner (3:55)

All right, to the headlines. It's the middle of October and we have got our first potential hurricane of the Atlantic hurricane season.
