Second "Marketplace" Story Airs

The second installment of our continuing series for "Marketplace" (American Public Media's nationally syndicated public radio program on business) aired on Tuesday, December 8. Marketplace asked Nashville private investigator Thomas H. Humphreys to look into the economy's impact on child support collections. Humphreys turned to Nashville Fourth Circuit Court Judge Philip Smith, Child Support Services litigator Rhonda Spurlock, and our esteemed colleague, expert PI Renee Waters for expertise. 

To find out how single parents are faring in this economy, where jobless dads and moms can turn for help, and to hear the moving story of how one deadbeat dad inspired Waters' life work, visit the Marketplace online archive, where you can listen to the story or read a transcript. 

*And if you love the swingy PI theme song that accompanies the piece, go see our composer Andy Schienman's website and hear more of his work.
