Great informative podcast for Canadians. I’ve really been enjoying the recent/relevant interviews. I know it can be difficult with certain guests but would love even longer form interviews for future episodes. Keep up the great work!

This used to be a great Canadian investing podcast. It would be really nice to have one tied to the Canadian perspective. Great interviews but the constant political commentary and conspiracy peddling has reduced this podcast to a lump of garbage. Please just go back to talking about the good stuff.

These guys used to give some decent insight from a typical neoliberal business guy perspective, nice because it was Canadian centric. Last year has shown an increasingly right wing bent and the latest episodes have veered towards overtly hard right politics. Last straw was the episode where they kowtowed to Danielle Smith. Basically they Rogan’ed but they were never interesting enough to justify bearing with the annoying politics to get the business takes. Like who wants to hear more middle aged business men talk about censorship?
Book Recommendation
Jan 3
My recommendation is: “The Way the Crow Flies” by Ann-Marie MacDonald. I have no idea if this is the type of book you’d like to read, as I have only listened to two episodes of this podcast, but this is one of the best books I have ever read. It’s Canadian fiction, set during the Cold War at a Centralia, Ontario RCAF base (which did exist but only remnants remain now). Truly one of the most emotional, most beautifully-written stories I’ve ever taken in. Thanks!
