Welcome to Too Legitimate to Quit - Summer School 2023! To kick off this season of learning and laughs, we dive straight into financial wellness, shame, and the coming zombie apocalypse. What could be more fun than that!?

The incredible Bob Wheeler is here to talk us through the emotions that wrap themselves tightly around our money, how we can apply more intention and attention where it counts, and what we can learn from the not-always-so-smart protagonists on our favorite video-game-turned-TV Show, The Last of Us.
