    Kinda weird that FT can be so left leaning. Most episodes sound like NPR about financial issues. Not very enjoyable.

  • Great content, great presenter

    I find this podcast very relevant and informative. I also love the presentation style and how expressive Michela Tindera is. I was quite shocked with all the negative comments about the presenter, but then I remembered the men I worked with for a decade in finance and it checks out that they can’t stand women’s voices.
