  • Audio

    Good content; however, the host’s audio equipment is very poor and an unfortunate distraction. It seems I am not the only one making note of this.

  • Good show but need to QC sound prior to releasing.

    I like the topic and guests on this show. However, Lauren’s audio gear leaves a lot to be desired. Her sound quality is about the worst of any podcast I’ve listened to.

  • Horrible audio‼️⁉️

    Today Lauren had someone pressing a pillow on her face!!! Horrible audio… please do a gofundme to buy a mic

    Why are your guests talking with a pillow on their mouth?? If your guests are dialing in then All you need to do is ask them to use a wired headphone. How hard is it? Why wouldn’t you just care enough to ask them to use one??

  • Microphone/sound

    I would really like if the Hostess would get a better microphone, it is terrible sound with her voice pitch, it is easily fixed by a quality microphone or hire a sound producer/editor

    As others have said, Lauren is middlin’ but Ben is excellent. He does all of the heavy lifting. He’s candid, owns his missed picks. I really enjoy his content. I wish they did the show more than once a week.

    I’ve never had the trouble with audio that others have complained about. Perhaps I’m just an old and remember the days of genuinely poor audio.

Talking Markets and More with First Eagle's Matthew McLennan
Q: What is your view on diversification outside the United States and potential currency implications?
Global opportunities are important; international staples offer lower multiples and attractive cash flow, and currency diversification can help manage risk as the US dollar's value fluctuates with global dynamics.
Talking Markets and More with First Eagle's Matthew McLennan
Q: Are there any energy stocks you particularly like, and what's your broader take on investing in energy now?
Yes, they favor energy due to disciplined capital investment and potential optionality; Schlumberger is highlighted as a top pick in oilfield services, with a strategy leaning toward creating shareholder value and leveraging cash flow through cycles.
Talking Markets and More with First Eagle's Matthew McLennan
Q: Tell us what's ahead for Oracle and Adobe, and what to look for in their reports.

What the Iran Conflict Means for Markets
Q: What's the outlook for Broadcom's earnings report?
Broadcom is expected to report significant growth in AI semiconductor revenue, but analysts are watching closely for signs of margin pressure amid shifting customer dynamics.
What the Iran Conflict Means for Markets
Q: How should someone protect their investment portfolio at the beginning of this conflict?
Investors should review their portfolios and consider diversifying away from heavily US-focused positions into European or emerging market stocks as a protective measure.
