    Inept insertion of ads within the broadcast one loses the train of thought when slammed with an F1 ad we love racing but put it in its own lane

  • Not good

    This show is so embarrassingly bad, I cringe every time I listen to it. It is just so poorly done. I keep hoping it would get better, but it doesn’t.

  • You know

    Count how many times you say “you know”, “sort of”

    “Kind of”, need to fix this, transcript deletes a lot of them out, very distracting

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Is Bitcoin Still 'Digital Gold'? How Investors See It Now
Q: When you talk to investors, where do they see Bitcoin fitting into their portfolios?
Investors split into two camps: those who are skeptical and may avoid cryptocurrencies, and on the buy side, institutions that still see potential in the top cryptocurrencies and allocate small, measured percentages of their assets toward them.
The Inflation Debate That Will Shape the Fed’s Plans for Interest Rates
Q: What should the next move be for the Fed—hold, cut, or something else?
Kaplan suggests the Fed should hold in the near term, arguing that rates are near a neutral real rate and inflation needs clearer improvement before further cuts.
Why This VC Says AI and Robotics Will Put Every Human Job at Risk
Q: Do you think that governments should play a role in preparing for that long term issue?
It's the responsibility of businesses and government to change the education curriculum and reskill people.
Why This VC Says AI and Robotics Will Put Every Human Job at Risk
Q: Are we in a bubble?
It's very nuanced; bubbles can mobilize talent and capital into important areas but also have speculative investments.
Will the Next Jobs Report Reveal the Real Cost of AI on Employment?
Q: Justin, this is an incredibly important question. I mean, in talking to some of the executives here in Davos and really in my work at Work Helix, what we're seeing is that this pyramid that a lot of companies have where people come in at the base and then some of them work their way up to the mid-level and senior positions is turning into more of a pentagon or a maybe a diamond where the base is really shrinking.
The base is really shrinking, and we have to rethink how we train junior employees in the face of AI capabilities.
