Customer Reviews
Fun to listen to and very informative!
Great listen whether you’re business knowledge is limited or you’ve spent years in the game. The sports references add the perfect blend of light-hearted fun while not minimizing the business aspects of the podcast.
Love the Baseball comparisons
Fun Podcast using all of the baseball comparisons. Brings added life to some already hot treacle topics.
Brilliant Mix of Sports and Business
Stumbled across this podcast but chance and can’t recommend it enough! I’ve always wanted to be more knowledgeable about the mergers and acquisitions industry but didn’t know where to start. Michael and JR do a great job of making it all easy to understand through using sports!
