Top 3 Podcasts on Finance & the Economy
Posted by Kristjan Velbri | Posted in Economy, Personal Finance | Posted on 15-08-2009
In these days, financial and economic news are not only reported on financial news media websites and personal blogs like Naked Capitalism or The Big Picture, but on online radio shows too, or in web-speak, podcasts. There is a large array of different podcasts available, some of which are downloadable versions of previously aired radio shows. Here is a selection of top three podcasts that I keep track of.
1. Financial Sense Newshour with Jim Puplava and John Loeffler
This has got to be one of my favorite radio programs! Jim Puplava is an excellent interviewer and has the best finance and economics book authors appear on his show each week. Jim and John make a great team and their jokes spice up the show only to make it more enjoyable. John also has his own show, called Steel on Steel.
Guests this week: Robert McHugh, Peter Schiff (of EuroPacific Capital), Joseph Dancy, James Turk (founder of GoldMoney), John F. Wasik (2nd hour book guest), Eric Coffin. Previously he has interviewed James Howard Kunstler, Gerald Celente, Michael Panzner, Bud Burrell, Charles R. Morris, William Fleckenstein and many more (see archive).
2. King World News with Eric King
I don’t know how he manages it, but somehow Eric gets all the best guests on his show on a consistent basis. This show is definitely a must listen for each weekend. There is also a special section for gold bugs, which is also updated each week. Like Jim Puplava, Eric King is an excellent interviewer.
Guests this week: Peter Barnes (CEO of Silver Wheaton), Bill Fleckenstein (Fleckenstein Capital), Gerald Celente (Trends Research Institute), Ted Butler and a guest from GATA.
Previously on KWN: Harry Markopolis, Barry Ritholtz, Marc Faber, John Mauldin, Alan Grayson, Jim Rogers, Peter Schiff and many more available in the King World News archive.
3. McAlvany Weekly Commentary with Don and David McAlvany
Weekly shows that are uploaded every Wednesday. MWC has a different style than the shows above and that’s what I like about it. Who would enjoy listening to the same stuff all over again? The show is well worth listening to and I suggest you check it out.
This week on MWC: Richard Bookstaber (an excellent interview!)
Previously on the show: G. Edward Griffin, Marc Faber, Thomas E. Woods Jr. and more (see arhive).
