The topic of financial anxiety is prominently featured across multiple podcast episodes, as listeners grapple with a range of money-related concerns and their psychological impact.

In episodes like "I've Never Invested Before and All My Money Is in a Savings Account. Help!", the host Nicole Lapin explores a caller's anxiety around investing and making financial decisions. Similarly, the episode on needing a firm financial foundation addresses callers' worries about the stability of the US dollar, property taxes, and debt.

Other episodes, such as the discussion with a financial therapist and Caleb Hammer's candid sharing of his own financial anxieties, delve deeper into the psychological and emotional aspects of money management. The topic of financial anxiety also emerges in the broader context of politics and generational divides, as highlighted in the NPR Politics Podcast episode.
