“A show that gets to the heart of the most important issues. I was able to unsubscribe from business and international relations channels, saving a lot of time. Demetri and his guests are creative and insightful.”

“And that is because he does not forecast the future. Instead he runs curiosity and a discovery thirst right from his heart into the minds of me as a listener. Thank You for all episodes and the neverending interview ride!”

“The episodes with people who actually do policy or have actual experience are far better. The host sometimes gets too caught up in narratives and gives them way more credence than they deserve over reality. Just because a bunch of random people say stuff doesn’t mean it’s important, especially in...”Read full review »

“For supposedly heterodox thinkers this program is the most boring and predictable snooze fest on the net. Occasional decent guests but it’s those guests that bring the value not this program.”

“Demetri really “hits it out of the park” in this interview with Andy Constan. In a brief amount of time, you’ll receive the equivalent of a college course on how the FED works and what this could mean in the short and long term for investing on the macro level. Great stuff, I’ve listened to it 3...”Read full review »

“Just another boring financial podcast with cringe-level fear mongering to lure in the vulnerable among us. Sadly, it’s most often the older folks who fall for this garbage. They pay for the fears and this guy is happy to dish it out.
