Cyber Monday marks one of the biggest shopping days of the year. As American consumers take advantage of holiday deals, host Rose Scott talks with University of South Florida economic and business experts Michael Snipes and Carol Osborne. They discuss seasonal shopping trends, consumer behavior, and the potential impact of holiday shopping on the bottom line for businesses. They also share whether the economic concerns related to the 2024 presidential election results will be reflected in consumer holiday shopping patterns.

Plus, as people are spending time with their loved ones this holiday season, it’s always a good time to trace one’s family history. We revisit conversations focusing on genealogy. Rose talks with Dr. Gina Paige, a co-founder of African Ancestry, Elizabeth J. West, a professor of English and co-director of Georgia State University’s Center for Studies on Africa and Its Diaspora, and Althea Sumpter, a researcher and scholar.
