Great Podcast one of the best on finances!
CHooseFI podcasts have tons of information and they present it clearly and in an easy to follow format. Unlike other podcasts where you have to cut through fifteen minutes of jokes to get to the meat of the podcast they jump right in and treat each subject like they're talking to adults. I really appreciated it.

After listening, I feel more energized about improving my finances and have actionable steps I can take to get there. Thanks Brad and Jonathan for making my commute and gym time interesting!
