Most people have no idea what they're spending until the statement arrives. Cash fixes that — which is exactly why almost nobody uses it anymore.

Shane and the team open the week with a conversation about what happens when you can't find your debit card, can't make change, and can't explain why your balance is lower than it should be. Ryan O'Donnell's cash experiment in Mexico turns into a genuine argument for bringing a little friction back into how you spend. Noah weighs in on why tactile money still has a psychological edge. And the team previews tonight's conversation with personal finance educator Dr. Preet Banerjee on Robinhood's arrival in Canada and what the GameStop era actually taught us.

Canada Day is next week. The long weekend math is getting complicated.
