Customer Reviews
Pillar of the industry
Great to hear from John and his esteemed guests. Informative and actionable interviews covering a range of AML topics. It’s nice that they are not hours long… makes it easy to listen to.
Good info but too obviously political
This could be a really great show with the wealth of knowledge and experience John has. However he can’t seem to separate himself from his obviously leftist ideologies and interject passive aggressive comments towards the other political party or opposing thoughts. I’m hear to learn about AML and better my knowledge, I don’t need your beliefs or agenda being pushed. Keep those to yourself. Real shame.
