Short and not so sweet
As a total novice when it comes to investing I was caught by the name and decided to give this podcast a chance. Unfortunately it lacks both style and substance. The introduction was a warning sign that this was not a well thought out or professional production. Delivered in a monotone, staccato, almost robotic voice I felt that if the intro was this dull it didn't bode well for the rest. The gentleman presenting sound completely unenthusiastic, presenting in the same monotone form as the introduction. The sound quality is poor with reverb and echo - particularly from the guests - making it difficult to discern what they're saying. In terms of substance this is simply not for beginners. At all. A myriad of terminology and abbreviations were used in the first 15 minutes which I was unfamiliar with. The format was to answer a question posed by an alleged beginner without introduction or background. How is a novice supposed to understand the question? The hosts never went so far as to even give their backgrounds. Who are they? Why should we listen to their advice? What experience have they? How much have they made investing? Beginners are unlikely to be familiar with them so some sort of background should be a prerequisite. While these guys might know the subject matter they have no idea how to teach or script, produce and present a podcast. Avoid.Read full review »

Thanks for the great podcast! Have found your episodes on statement of cash flow very helpful, as well as the back to basics episode on picking stock. Hard to find podcasts with this kind of investing rubrics. Keep up the great work! 👍

These guys have no agenda, and basically just talk in circles for 30 mins. Smart guys, but their podcast isn’t worth your time.
