Money Talks podcast: Summer, self-growth & sixth grade
Parker's got jokes, dreams and an eventful year ahead.

School starts for Parker on Wednesday.
When she hops off the bus and walks through those doors, she won’t just be stepping into sixth grade. She’ll be walking into a new era.
Middle school! (Or junior high, if that’s how you roll.)
People love to say “Time flies.” But if you really want to hear it happen, press play on the debut episode of the Money Talks podcast. The difference in Parker’s voice says it all.
Even she can’t believe it. And me? Well, that’s a column for another day.
In episode 16 of the Money Talks podcast, Parker doesn’t waste any time revealing her budding personality.
After starting episode 15 by scolding me for my perceived lack of participation in podcast production, Parker kicks off episode 16 by straight-up roasting my basketball skills.
Brutal. And hilarious.
Join us for the laughs, the lessons and a front-row seat to growing up — one episode at a time.
