My favorite podcast of 2020! Highly recommend

This podcast does an amazing job bringing together academics, companies, and private equity leaders. Shruti has a great synergy with her guests and keeps the mood engaging and informative. Think “How I Built This”, but for private equity. I’ve gained a lot of insights from this podcast and it’s been one of the highlights of my quarantine. Highly encourage everyone to give this a listen, especially if you are interested in business or the economy!
