Author Michael Lewis joins us with stories of the few men who understood that all those bundled mortgage securities being traded by the big investment banks were worthless. They bet against Wall Street and were treated as a joke until banks started going under. Lewis explains what these few had figured out, and asks why the captains of finance who led us to a multi-trillion dollar economic disaster are still rich and calling the shots on Wall Street and in Washington. Michael Lewis' new book is "The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine."

Tom Wiggin co-created "Songs for Soldiers," a volunteer effort to provide MP3 music players to the 185,000 U.S. service members stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan. The MP3 players are filled with songs from To The Fallen Records, which produces songs written and performed exclusively by active duty troops and veterans.
