I hadn't listened for a while but spotted the app on my phone this am and had a listen - it was pretty good.
Caught the end of a piece on dividend shares, and a review of a book about the psychology of money.
May be worth a listen? I can't rate it based on an hour's listening, but it may be worth investigating. I just find Moneybox too broad and shallow these days.

Presently listening to The Motley Fool Show - direct from Washington DC. ;)

Used to listen in the car and on a household DAB Radio but, as you probably know, they no longer support that service.

It looks like there's an alternative:

Doesn't ring a bell.

But among TMF voices, David Kuo seems to be fairly regular on the BBC (world service).

He occasionally attended the Fool Socials at the Grafton Arms, as did David Kuo
