CORRECTION: The Pell Grant does not run out. There are lifetime limits per student on the Pell Grant and basically every other grant that exists is first-come, first-served, but not Pell. Pell is always available. We are in the process of omitting this statement from the episode and will also correct it on Friday's episode.

Customer Reviews
Please don’t interview your children on pod
I love the show but please don’t put your children on the pod. They are not yet as articulate or as compelling as the standards you have set for this show.

I would have loved to hear the husband get to complete a sentence. Quit interrupting your guests please
I’ve learned so much…
Finally trying out the paying upgrade and I’m looking forward to more.
And it’s a great pod to discuss with the friends who turned me into it. I love the reminders to be compassionate, to listen, to not dig into the binary story others might want us to buy into. Everyone of us can use a little grace from time to time. And, new perspectives are more than welcome in my world.
