Lots of gems
I stumbled across this podcast by interacting with James on a RE page. I’m so glad I did! Hands down my favorite podcast. These guys keep it real and ask very good questions that most of us are thinking when listening to other podcast that just aren’t asked.
They are also very relatable to many investors and seem to get good guests with a mix of investing strategies and knowledge of complimentary skills you need as an investor. Would like to see them do 2 shows a week!
Amazing podcast
Amazing content and love what you guys bring to the table ever week.
