I am new to podcast but not to learning. I have read or listened to so many books that it is difficult for me to gather information that is helpful for my investment mind. I am always looking for the next level. I'm listening to a podcast that these guys did from years ago disscussing the failure of the dollar only to now look at how crypto is taking off and a large portion of the population and even some of the financial busineses are moving into crypto because the dollar is becoming so diluted. Great stuff!

Wow, incredilbe depth on topics that matter
