Completed all podcasts - Thank you BP for great education!

[Frank S.]

Hi, 

Well, it took me over a year, but I finally finished all podcasts. I would like to thank BP for the high quality information provided. This is why BP is the REI source available.

The amount of work required to schedule, book, record, edit, and broadcast them is  exponentially "amazing"  - like our host and co-host often say.

This allowed me to diversify in REI after learning very valuable lessons in negotiation, management, value-added, integrity, and encouragement. What a great motivational tool, too.

From the bottom of my heart, @Brandon Turner@Joshua Dorkin , et al.,  I thank you for your hard work, for my family reaps the benefit of a solid purchase last year. 

Wishing you a continuous success, 

Frank

Hi there, 

I think is important to keep in mind the time when they were recorded. You will notice differences in the market as you navigate through the podcasts.

Always, be skeptical, critical, and contrarian. Double check the data. 

People like stories. Stories last longer than data, and after while, we tend to fill in the blanks to comply with our world view. Fighting our innate irrationality is very difficult.

I listened them on my phone and saved some of the best to listen again later.  Here is my list, although, there are many, many other good ones. In no particular order:
