I’m addicted. The flow is amazing. From real credit market situations to modern culture themes. The chemistry between Kevin and Jason is academia and sarcastic at the same time. It’s unique, full of learnings and entertaining. Perfect for a long commute.
Excellent and incredibly entertaining. Tackling complex issues with humor, lightheartedness, and without the boring white-shoe law firm overtones. Would love to see an increase in the frequency of shows.
Jason and Kevin are the Shaq and Kobe of financial intelligence…one might be a little out of shape, but the other is bringing the heat every episode. But who’s who? Their chemistry is off the charts, making even the trickiest credit market topics an easy listen. Insightful, sharp, and just the right amount of entertaining… for me at least. Finance doesn’t have to be boring.
