For me it's disappointing. I'm glad Macri and his crew are starting to really monetize their content. Big grey area when you are promoting click by asking leading questions where you should know better. Eh, not for me and he is fading from my interest level. Welcome to the click scrum, wish you were doing better.

Fred barely pushing back and hesitant to cross that line with a foil he knows helps him too.

It's thin, really thin.

I mentioned this very thing a few weeks ago about his diluted content. I stopped listneing to this podcast. Really was nothing there. "Super chat" conjecture no better than what we do here.
The retweets on the UK by fringe bloggers does add the image of it being legit but its not. "Ritsholzman" and tommy beer stuff really is clickbait but I see how fans get mad by the headlines and run with it.

I think some of their stuff is very good and I wish them luck in regaining back all of their efforts via sponsors and such. It fades for me when they are knowingly being disingenuous, it's not a good look IMHO and just not for me; it'll capture eyeballs though, that's the name of the $ game.

Eh, the IQ stuff originated from a Shams report. I don't know how serious these talks are and I feel Shams is pretty much a shill for agents. But I don't feel Shams is a liar. There was probably something to those reports. It could be a small as listening to some offers and laughing them off.

Like RJ, it takes him awhile each year but he’s stepped up.
