A thoughtful, concise and informative podcast. Count me in as a fan. The talks are timely and even a reasonably educated layman can understand the points Bill and Scott are making.

A big plus: 30 or so minutes per podcast - very easy to digest!

It’s Really Good

I really appreciate this show, and I find it to be highly educational. I’m certainly a fan of Bill. I also find H. Andrew Schwartz to be the secret sauce that makes this podcast flow. Emily is also a powerful contributor. This is a crucial content area where we need more informed discussion like this, and Bill and Scott never disappoint. It’s always a good listen.
