In this episode of the Unusual Whales Pod, recorded live on the Unusual Whales live trading show WhaleWatch, our hosts Nicholas and Anthony are joined by mentalist Wayne Hoffman to dive into the psychology around trading and investing.

To start us off, Nicholas breaks down some mental hang-ups he's run into over time, then Wayne breaks down the psychology involved, and how habits and impulsivity are sometimes making the decisions for you. Wayne provides a much clearer look into the human mind, and offers ways to mitigate the negative effects of our psychology, while bolstering the positive!

At the end of the episode, Wayne demonstrates some of this psychology with a mentalist routine on Anthony; it's a must listen for new traders and investors alike!

This conversation is sponsored by Tema ETFs. We’re joined by Yuri Khodjamirian, CIO of Tema, to talk about a space economy that is starting to look a lot more investable than it did even a few years ago. Launch costs have collapsed, Starlink helped prove the commercial case, governments are treating space as strategic infrastructure, and funds like Tema’s $NASA are now trying to bring that opportunity into public markets.

This episode of the Unusual Whales Podcast was recorded live on April 30th, 2026. Nicholas is joined by the CEO and co-founder of Teamshares, Michael Brown, to discuss one of the biggest and least talked-about shifts in the U.S. economy: the wave of small business ownership transitions as millions of owners head toward retirement. So today we’re digging into what this wave really looks like and what may get missed in the bullish version of the story.
