  • Boring and uninspired

    Tried listening to multiple episodes as the topics seem ok but every time the podcast is playing I end up not paying attention to it. Can’t recall anything that was spoken about and requiring me to go rewind. The topics seem ok but had a lack of depth and flat delivery. Loonie Hour and Canadian Investor podcasts are miles ahead of this.

  • One of my favourite podcasts

    One of my favourite podcast to listen to - it’s bite-sized information that’s very digestible, informative, light and funny. A very easy listen. Sad to see it go for now, but can’t wait to see what they do next.
