Happy Endings and New Beginnings

Don’t think of this as a goodbye, friend, think of it as ‘See ya later!”. In this episode, we’re talking more about where we came from and revealing some big news about where the Simplicity Show is going. What can you expect from us in the (very near) future? What’s with all of the secrecy? Well, it’s no fun if we don’t make you listen to find out.

Quality Time with our CEO

Ring in 2020 with our President/CEO Pat Wesenberg hot on the heels of her election to be Chair of the National Credit Union Foundation board of directors. We learned some of what the Foundation does (see the link below for more), how Pat got her start in Credit Unions, and we were reminded how awesome it is to spend time with the best Credit Union CEO on the planet. (Yes, we used a little flattery, she’s the boss, you gotta.) Ready to spend some time with us as we spend some quality time with a genuine Credit Union believer?

End of Year Spectacular - Part Two

Welcome back for Part Two of the Podcast we didn’t want to end. We did (finally) get to the point and lay out the origins (comical, mythical, and dark) of some of the holiday traditions we know and love. Want to learn about kissing under the mistletoe, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade, and even the Christmas Pickle? Pour yourself some holiday spirit and tune in now to hear learn a little, laugh a little, but mostly scratch your head in wonder at how we ended up celebrating the way we do.

End of Year Spectacular - Part One

Are you ready for an extra-bonus-sized deep dive into 2019, the goals we set, and the roadblocks we met along the way? Well you’re in luck, buddy!! We sat down to record with the intention of starting with a ‘quick update’ and it turned into such a great chat, that we had to see where it led us. Spoilers: it led to an episode SO LONG that we’re splitting it up into two parts and giving you an extra taste of holiday goodness next week too! If you only listen to one podcast this year, make it these two ;)
