What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

David brings brilliant insights to the economic side of politics and culture, and is very knowledgeable in the subject. My only complaint is the length. I feel like more could be included in a longer format, such as the weekly half hour episodes being a daily occurrence. Awesome show though, keep up the good work!

I’m a regular listener who has found this program to be essential for understanding the forces in our economy. You have to listen for a bit to understand all the terminology but the effort reaps benefits.

Intelligent insights on markets and investing; leaning into dividend growth for a stable portfolio. The lagniappe is explaining policy alternatives in a calm manner that reassures “growth is a winning hand”.
