My Spirit Animals

I love how this podcast dodges small talk, but also squeezes meaning out of everyday topics. I’m a fan of the research and multiple subject tie-ins that guide this podcast. I’m also a fan of how Michael and Ben don’t mind putting their own financial lives out there occasionally. This balance of broader content and relatability keeps me coming back. Sometimes they topic hop like crazy madhatters. But my brain works in a similar way so I don’t mind following their train of thought. It usually connects to something far deeper than money or investing eventually. I’m going to get judgy hear and say I lost some respect when I found out one of them was a fan of Howard Stern. I suppose that happens in the world though. I’d still be willing to be friends with them.
