I really enjoy the podcast, but the audio quality is very poor relative to your average podcast. Would be great if RBC could invest in some new mic’s.
Love the content and the guest’s perspective.
Would enjoy listening to more alternative investments options particularly with infrastructure and private credit and real estate
Any chance to make the content like 30 to 45 mins in length?
