11:15 | Fred Barbash-Moderator - Peter Goodman, economics writer for the New York Times and author of "Past Due" will be with us at noon.
From the Times' excerpt of Peter's book: "Millions of Americans have lost homes, jobs and savings to the financial crisis and recession. While greed and extravagance played roles, many lived beyond their means because their paychecks shrank."
Peter, a friend of mine from earlier days, is that rare economics reporter who actually gets out in the country on a regular basis to get beyond the stats and the theories.
