With inflation on the rise and consumers on the ropes, everyone's talking about the big, scary R-word — recession. Are we staring down another recession? And what can you do about it if we are?

In today's episode of the "Money!" podcast, we're going to talk about the signs a recession could be on the way, plus try to figure out if we're about to enter one. Then, we'll talk about how you can shore up your finances to help you ride things out when the economy gets bumpy.

Stacy Johnson and Miranda Marquit are joined by producer and novice investor Aaron Freeman to talk about what to expect as inflation surges and recession looms.
