  • Too many commercials

    Given the shrinking time devoted to actual reporting, they should rename the podcast “Wall Street Commercials”

  • New format? Bland.

    The new format is vague and less interesting. We look to this show for guidance and information. Random puff pieces on “capitalism in general” don’t cut the mustard. We need current events. We need current moves in the market. We need to see the effects of politics on the business world. Mr. Rukeyser, I’m sure, would be disappointed.

  • Liberal biased media

    Never a conservative perspective. Life insurance companies didn’t go bankrupt during COVID. Life insurance companies paid the same as they have always paid. The unvaccinated COVID got it once. The vaxed keep getting COVID. We see it in the clinic. Pathetic journalism.

  • No Politics Please!

    If Larry Summers wants to talk finance, that’s great. If he wants to shill for a political party, go to the View or CNN.

  • Excellent podcast

    I think Bloomberg for everything now available as podcast format. So, even if we miss live radio / tv we can catch up on podcast. Great guests, great interviews by David. Worth listening!
