As a young man looking to start his own business one day. These podcasts have provided insights for potential areas in which there are market gaps to enter. I believe each episode is beneficial to a specific person who is trying to make money. For me the business ideas area is the most beneficial. It’s hard to find podcasts that are beneficial yet entertaining, yet this is one of them.
Disclaimer only watch if your ambitious enough to use these ideas. Otherwise you’ll stay a brokie

Great Podcast for entrepreneurs
