Awesome!!

If you listen to this show you can learn a lot about investing, and especially which stocks to buy. The speakers are super knowledgeable.

Great long term investing podcast

I really enjoyed this podcast these guys aligned with my beliefs of long-term holdings, and not worrying about the day-to-day momentum of the market, and just believing in the stock, in the company, and what they’re trying to do probably my favorite investing podcast right now!
