LubinskyBrilliant!This is one of my favorite pods to listen to about all things ESG and governance related. The commentary is funny and full of quality relevant research. Good stuff!
-
HghjigtGaslighting centralLet’s pooh-pooh the massive corporate voting power and control of fund managers - they just couldn’t do anything self-serving. Their hearts are so pure, and they wield their unchecked power only for the good of all. ESG is love and purity. Let’s mock incessantly anyone who dares to question this. We must defend the big funds that control the votes from everyone’s retirement accounts and pensions. They just love everyone- just like Chairman Mao.

OshkoshdThe Click and Clack of Wall Street!Moscardi & Rallis are the new Magliozzi brothers! Lots of interesting insights into public companies you won’t get anywhere else conveyed in a fun, chatty format that feels like a hilarious dysfunctional family dinner discussion. Emma Lurking reminds Matt and Damian that her Gen Z mob isn’t impressed by any of it and they’re ready for the revolution Boomers abandoned for their high-paying finance and advertising careers. Lots of laughs punctuated by revealing top-rate analytics. Go for the laughs; stay to get informed.

JCAG5My favorite podcastThis is the greatest thing I’ve ever heard. In a covidy world full of self-important, overly serious, mouth-breathing environment, social and governancers, we need more of this. When can y’all start slinging two a week? How many listeners do you need for that? Y’all are probably whatever that number is minus like 25 right? Thanks guys. I love biz pants.
