Love this podcast—do yourself a favor and start listening.
Annoying to hear background noise like the sound of eating chips when trying to focus on the content.
By far the best Semi podcast out there. Whether you’re in finance looking to invest, in the industry looking to improve your market knowledge, or just a tech nerd who wants to stay on the leading edge of the semiconductor value chain: this is a great offering. Ben and Jay are both entertaining and incredibly insightful. Thanks, gents.
Thank you so much for creating these podcasts. I have learned a lot about the chip industry. As learn more, I am more open to investing. If I may, you both have very handsome voices. Do you accessorize? Have you ever considered a clever hat or snappy suspenders? Both can be exhilarating! Keep up the great work!
I’ve been looking for a podcast to build my knowledge on the industry as I’m one of the newer recruits. The podcasts are easy to follow and packed with information, I would love to see more back to the basics episodes!
