Regionally Speaking, Tuesday, September 21, 2021

benefits.gov

Today:  Northwest Indiana financial advisor Greg Hammer is on "Regionally Speaking" to talk about healthcare costs for retirees reaching a national high, and he offers some strategies for getting ready to meet the rising costs.  Side Effects Public Media's Farah Yousry has a report on how far some people will go to get COVID-19 vaccines -- even flying across the globe to get them, if they don't have access to them at home.  And a historic Asian festival is being celebrated this week at a northwest Indiana casino cafe with a very special dessert -- moon cakes.  

Chris Nolte produces and hosts “Regionally Speaking” aired weekdays from noon to 1:00 p.m. He's also the temporary local "Morning Edition" host.
