Financial Survival Radio is a weekly podcast designed to help listeners make sense of the ongoing worldwide economic collapse. While the show covers a wide range of business & finance topics, the main goal of each episode is to help people survive and thrive through the tough economic years ahead. In this new economy, who’s winning? Who’s losing? What’s changing? Financial Survival Radio keeps track of what’s happening in the economy, why it’s happening and what it all means to the everyday investor. It’s the mission behind Financial Survival Radio’s motto – “the network you need in the new economy.” The host of Financial Survival Radio, Jay Carter, draws upon his extensive experience in both broadcasting and business, along with a morbid fascination with the slow-motion breakdown of the United States’ consumption-and-leisure “FIRE” (Finance, Insurance, Real Estate) economy.

Murrow Award for excellence in journalism.
