Dark Rye is the Whole Foods Market mixtape — raucous and always delicious — and hey! We’re on TV! Dark Rye airs on pivot opens in a new tab on Wednesdays at 9:30pm ET / 6:30pm PT and guess who’s our airwaves-neighbor? It’s Joseph Gordon-Levitt, actor-turned-curator, producer, and TV-land adventurer…Gandhi said it’ll spoil you to have wealth without work or pleasure without conscience — but then ye old dog Oscar Wilde said that anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination. So which is it, sage forefathers?
Do we scrimp and save, or spend big? You can’t take it with you when you die, after all — isn’t a shruggy, ‘it-comes-and-goes’ attitude better than the high blood pressure of worrying that there’s never enough money?
On this week’s HITRECORD ON TV opens in a new tab, Joseph Gordon-Levitt brings everyday bean counters, piggy-bankers, gamblers and loan sharks to share their money secrets and stories—the case for making it, keeping it, spending it and saving it. Reconciling financial savvy, sanity, and soul — it would seem — is all a matter of when and how to do it all.
Joseph’s HITRECORD ON TV jingles along tomorrow night with the episode “RE: MONEY.” That’s Saturday, February 22 at 10PM ET / 7PM PT. Check with your local cable provider to find out if you get pivot or visit getpivot.tv opens in a new tab.
