  • Hosts are okay, but...

    The guest experts brought on are consistently duds. On any given issue they're asked about, they seem to know less than the typical layman. If you can't get good guests, it's fine to just do the episodes solo.

  • Dumbest questions ever

    Normally i dont give review for podcasts but i just cant stand it anymore. The hosts asked why should elon musk carry price premium for space x??? Really? Why should a generational talent, Thomas edison 10x be with price premium? Come on, you are not well suited to work at Bloomberg if you ask this. Get another job elsewhere.

  • Wearing my business socks to listen

    Great show! Fun and interesting, plus smart as all get out. Have loved Stacey since NPR and was devastated when she left, especially because she seemed to slip away quietly. But it has been good to hear her on APM and now on this show! The latest episode had a segment that involved photos though, and that was really frustrating for a podcast! If you’re going to do that, please have some way for the audience to look at what you’re referencing, such as on the show’s website or an associated IG acc... more

  • Terminal Like Disease

    Delighted to find Stacey again. Love the show, the format. One question. Why do intelligent, thoughtful people have to insert LIKE every fifth word. The vector that spread this annoying ( really annoying ) disease? Podcasts and their hosts. If you can’t speak contemporaneously about a topic then write the damn content like the news media has done for decades and delete the unnecessary, unprofessional filler words.

404, Fun Not Found
Q: How do data centers influence energy prices and the grid?
Data centers increase demand on already tight grids, potentially raising prices; the debate centers on who pays for the necessary infrastructure and how to balance growth with affordability.
404, Fun Not Found
Q: What does the term 'fun shortage' mean in practical terms for everyday life?
It refers to a drop in shared social experiences due to fewer communal spaces, higher costs, and shifts in entertainment, which lowers opportunities for people to gather and engage face-to-face.
It’s Hard Out Here for a CEO
Q: Where is this shift coming from, Beth?
Beth Cohet attributes the shift to rising inequality, public perception of capitalism, and a broader skepticism that has increased threats against CEOs, affecting how people view corporate leadership.
A Different Way to Lower Your Grocery Bill
Q: Can you tell us a little bit about what you were asking them about?
They discussed negotiating with an espresso supplier and organizing space for a new coffee branding within the Azalea Market, aiming to keep the operation running smoothly as they transition.
Is That T-Shirt Worth $100 Million?
Q: What makes the bond market so important relative to the stock market right now?
The bond market reflects the true cost of money and expectations for future rates; as yields rise, it signals investors demanding higher returns and a reprice of risk, which can unsettle stocks even when equities look strong.
