When the pandemic first happened, many people were confused, anxious, and were in need of immediate help. As we continue to deal with the pandemic and our ever-changing economy, many are still looking for clear guidance and answers.

Jacob Wade of iHeartBudgets wanted to help as soon as he saw the rapidly-changing times. He talks with today’s host, Harlan Landes, about the urgency that led him to create the COVID-19 resource page (finalist in the 11th Annual Plutus Awards), giving updated information to those in need.
