Apple Podcasts5SwedespedeUnited Statesa month ago - 5 stars from a yank
I don’t even know if Aussies still call Americans Yanks, but as one I can’t speak more highly about Chris’s insight and delivery of the financial issues we all grapple with daily in a manner that is approachable. Fell in love with his satirical shorts on instagram, bought his book on Audible and now love his podcast. Obviously not everything he discusses translates exactly across the pacific, but the issues and questions remain the same and I love listening.
