Enjoyable, if fairly superficial

A fun light-hearted listen, with likeable presenters, even if they can be a little dopey sometimes. Pretty limited in terms of novel information or incisive analysis but a nice way to keep a finger on the pulse of the daily market.

Transcript needed

It would be good to have transcript displayed . As English as a second language listener, it is too fast 🥲

Fantastic Podcast

I have just discovered this podcast and it is exactly what I have been looking for. It is awesome. Not too long and very interesting and most of all I love the fact that Steve explains things so well and also doesn’t assume that the listeners are stock market experts and so Steve provides some explanation of things that he talks about and he also doesn’t use lots of jargon.
Really fantastic - highly recommend! Thank you Steve!
