4.8 out of 5 stars from 256 ratings
  • Used to be great

    This podcast used to offer insightful content, but it has taken a disappointing turn. Recent episodes feel unfocused and meandering, lacking the clarity and substance that once defined the show. Dr. Crosby’s commentary, which now resembles overreliance on AI-generated language, gives the impression of forced depth without meaningful insight. What once felt thoughtful now comes across as incoherent and self-indulgent.

  • Great podcast for behavioral finance

    There are lots of experts in the world. However, there are fewer who are really interesting to listen to. And then there are even fewer who are clever, insightful, and informed. DANIEL is one of those people who offers great insight with a very human touch. If you have not listened to Daniel Crosby, you’ve got to check him out!
