In this episode of The Cash News Podcast, Tom Meehan and Shaun Ferrari dive into recent real-world disruptions—like the power outage in Spain—that reinforce the critical role of cash in our modern payment landscape. From personal stories of system failures at airports and restaurants to a broader discussion about payment choice, digital overdependence, and economic uncertainty, this candid conversation highlights why cash remains essential. The hosts also tackle consumer behavior, economic signals like GDP and tariffs, and the rising impact of AI on financial systems and decision-making. It’s a timely reminder: when tech fails, cash prevails.
