Hey, guys. I wanted to update you on what’s coming from WhyFI Matter$ over the next few weeks and the summer. So my school, during the month of May, has us all do a May project. As some of you may know, I love tennis. I’ve been playing it for ages, and it’s a huge part of my life. For my project, I am creating a five-episode podcast series all about the upcoming grandslam tennis tournament, Roland Garros. So instead of the usual topics - economics and finance related- don’t be surprised if you hear me speaking in French or talking about Rafael Nadal. Then during the summer, I will get back to podcasting WhyFi Matter$ content probably every two weeks! I hope this sounds fun and interesting to you, and even if you are not a tennis fan, please consider listening to Drumroll, my new podcast series, The Greatest Show on Dirt: Roland Garros! Support the show

Insulin is expensive. While it costs around 10-13 dollars for manufacturers to produce insulin, big pharma companies are selling it for $250-500 dollars per month. This is because America’s warped pharmaceutical market allows three companies, Eli-Lilly, Sanofi, and Novo Nordisk, to dominate the insulin businesses and set insanely high prices for their drugs. Today I am talking to my friend Siara Patel, a freshman at Boston University and a Type 1 Diabetic. We learn about her journey living with Type 1 Diabetes and the economic challenges she and many other Type 1 and Type 2 diabetics face on a daily basis. After my interview with Siara, we will take a deep dive into why the price of insulin has grown so much in the past 20 years and how this life-saving drug has shifted so far way away from its initial altruistic intent. One of the founders of insulin, Canadian scientist Frederick Benting said, “Insulin belongs to the world.” But we seem to be living in reality far away from this statement. Additional resources and information:https://www.jdrf.org/https://civicarx.org/https://diabetes.org/https://openinsulin.org/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_RQl1pK11g Support the show

This is a special episode about tartufi or in English, truffles! No not chocolate truffles but the ones you find underneath the earth’s soil. Ever since I got Auggie, my Lagotto Romagnolo (Italian water dog), I’ve been incredibly fascinated by the world of truffles; Lagotto's with their amazing noses, are at their core truffle hunters.  I’ve been reading a lot lately and stumbled upon a book at my public library called: Truffle Hound- On the trail of the world’s most seductive scent with dreamers, schemers, and some extraordinary dogs. It’s by Rowan Jacobsen, a James Beard Award Winning author whose been featured on NPR’s All Things Considered, Morning Edition, and CBS This Morning. In addition to this, his writing has been featured in Bon Appétit, Saveur, WSJ, and the Washington Post. I truly loved reading his book and recommend it to anyone because it’s a thrilling, captivating read that takes you across Rowan's voyages in Europe from Croatia to England and America from Oregon to Tennessee. I’m so excited to have Rowan on the podcast today to learn more about the world of truffles and the economics of one of the world’s most expensive and elusive foods. Rowan's website: http://www.rowanjacobsen.com/Support the show
