In the last few minutes of the show, Sally unintentionally summed up much of our hour-long conversation with a thought about sarcasm as an economic indicator. And boy! Was this show ever filled with sarcasm! Not sure what that means, but I'm hoping it's a good thing.

Listen, learn and laugh with us this week as we tackle everything from things that start with a little "i" to whether account planning should die. (Yes, we went there too.)
