  • Please fix your Audio Levels!

    After almost 2 years of mentally and verbally complaining I am finally writing the feedback.. I listen to you guys 98% of time on my drive to work. You are sandwiched with the TheDailyAus, TheUpdate… and Your Audio Levels are so, SOO much lower than the other podcasts! Some episodes my car volume is in the MAX to be able to listen to you. Other than that, good show, engaging and informative. Thank you!

  • Good content annoying delivery

    Content is great but delivery is unnatural and annoying. Back and forth is disjointed and not conversational. The constant “boy” and “man” is cringe.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

NextDC's 100-year loan (for a 15 year old company) | SafetyCulture goes on the offensive | AI giants team up against Chinese competitors
Q: What does a 100-year bond imply for a company like NextDC in terms of capital planning and risk?
It provides long-term funding for large-scale infrastructure while preserving ownership, but locks the company into very long-term obligations and interest costs, making it sensitive to long-run macro trends and rate environments.
In Conversation with Angad Soin - How doing less drove global growth for Xero
Q: Is there a specific opportunity or a very bold idea that you're thinking about for Xero in the next few years?
Xero's purpose and mission is to give small businesses back that time, to do what they love doing most.
In Conversation with Angad Soin - How doing less drove global growth for Xero
Q: Angad, talking about when you were starting out, did you imagine yourself leading a company, an accounting software company, like Xero one day?
Definitely not. I do get asked many times like, was this part of the master plan? What is the master plan? And I can tell you there is no master plan.
In Conversation with Chris Judd - Why being disagreeable might just make you a better investor
Q: Was there a point where you realised, I'm actually not bad at investing, I might make it my profession?
Yes, after meeting a mentor at 28 who taught me how to invest in listed equities.
In Conversation with Chris Judd - Why being disagreeable might just make you a better investor
Q: Do you think that your experiences playing professional sport helped you in business or investing?
Yes, it has helped me a lot in investing.
