One of my favourite podcasts
The idea of this podcast is awesome. Joe and Mike pick up some very nice books and discuss them. It's like listening to two friends chatting in a café. Very enjoyable podcast with interesting ideas. I love the "actionable items" section. They're two great guys, honest and great to listen to. Thank you guys!
