  • Consistently Wrong Hosts (2-Year Listener Review)

    If you judge a podcast based on how sweet and charming the hosts are, this is a 5-star podcast. If you judge a podcast based on the intelligence of its hosts, this is also a 5-star podcast. If you judge a podcast based on the hosts' investing decisions, this is a 1-star podcast. Nick and Casey share "their investment decisions" after diving deep into "the case" for each company during an episode. Unfortunately, despite all their fancy analysis, they continually make terrible investing decisions ... more

  • Thoughtful analysis

    First of all caveat emptor, you should be carefully making your own investment decisions. Nick provides interesting comment and analysis on companies that are usually, but not always semiconductor related or sector adjacent. Well worth a listen.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Healthcare Bubble No One's Talking About (with Dr. Bradley Gibson)
Q: What is the most vulnerable part of the U.S. healthcare system that could cause a bubble to burst?
The immediate risk centers on funding and reimbursement dynamics, particularly how Medicaid and Medicare payments interact with private payers, and the potential for abrupt cuts or instability in government funding to ripple through hospitals, providers, and insurers.
SpaceX IPO, Orbital Data Centers & Investing in Quantum Computing | CSI with Simon Erickson of 7investing
Q: How do you approach investing in such a volatile, early-stage space?
Use a basket approach: allocate small amounts across several quantum players, then increase exposure as contracts materialize and ROIs become clearer, while staying mindful of the high risk of multiple failures and the potential for major winners to emerge later.
SpaceX IPO, Orbital Data Centers & Investing in Quantum Computing | CSI with Simon Erickson of 7investing
Q: What do you make of the SkyWater acquisition and its impact on IonQ's manufacturing ambitions?
It seems IonQ is aiming to vertically integrate and scale by leveraging SkyWater to move from pure R&D toward actual production capabilities, while managing potential conflicts of interest with customers; the move could speed up delivery to paying customers but also risks entangling supplier relationships.
Faraj Aalaei on Why AI Will Let Anyone Design a Chip — and What Happens When the Semiconductor Industry Finally Catches Up
Q: Is the goal for Cognichip to let non-engineers design chips, and how realistic is this vision?
Yes, the vision is democratizing chip design so scientists and non-traditional designers can create chips for simulations or prototypes, though current industry realities mean gradual adoption. Over time, as AI models become better and data governance improves, more people will be able to prototype and even tape out chips, lowering barriers to entry.
What the Luddites Teach Us About AI ft. Jacob Goldstein
Q: What can we learn from the Luddites about AI today?
Historically, backlash to new tech when it first disrupts livelihoods often fades as productivity rises and new opportunities emerge; the Luddites were rational in opposing mechanization but ultimately their movement waned as the long-run benefits became clear, suggesting a similar arc might unfold with AI as new jobs and systems adapt.
