I would say this, Capital Allocators and Venture Unlocked are the best LP podcasts. Top 3 for sure. I’m raising my first set of funds for my own firm and have learned a lot from the episodes.
Love this!
Super helpful as an analyst planning ahead
David Weisburd differs from typical finance podcasts. It shows how experienced allocators reason, not how they perform.
DW avoids filler and focuses on trade-offs, strategy, and intellectual restraint.
Each episode gives you a way to think, not something to quote and forget. If you want signal over noise, it’s a solid listen.
