Pleasant and educational
A mainly entertaining and always educational
Show . Occasionally Jim goes on too long but a small price to pay for what he gives you .
I look forward to each show and wish there were 5 shows a week
Too many rants

Informative!
Jim and Chris are very good at taking a subject and dissecting it until even a troglodyte like me can understand the particulars and potential effects of each concept to my retirement planning. Like everyone else, the time I have to dedicate to planning a large portion of my life is hard to find. Luckily for me, the amount of time I spend in the car can be converted to education about this very important topic. The dynamic between the main speakers is reminiscent of great friends hanging out and discussing a topic they are both very passionate about. It is refreshing and more interesting than listening to some egomaniac that isn’t a CFP telling you how fortunate he was with a single approach. I would and do recommend this show to everyone whether they have started planning or not.
