Thanks to the awesome regulars on here I am learning a massive amount about investing but I would like to extend my knowledge further.

I currently don't have time in my life to read books as I work 7 days a week and am in my busy season at work so get little time off.

I do however have the opportunity to listen to podcasts whilst working some of the time so I have been enjoying some fire podcasts.

I would like to listen to more general investing podcasts. Any recommendations?

I am not so interested in individual stocks or funds as I am happy with my LS & global tracker for now but I am more interested in market forecasts, historical cycle info etc.

    i listen AJ Bell Money and Markets weekly podcast. Gives a round up of what's been happening in the markets/news over the last couple of days and some food for thought on investments. It's an easy listen usually about 40-45 mins - enough time for me to go for a walk and burn off some calories :smiley:

    Just listened to it n15h. I will definitely add it to my list as it doesn't go over my head and is easy listening as you say.

    There is the Many Happy Returns podcast from Romin from Pension craft and his mate. That's decent imo and more on point investing than AJ Bell. (I do listen to both though from time to time).

    There is the Money week podcast, also good, but often I feel the interviews from active managers are probably just plugs to convince you their fund is the way to navigate the current times etc.

    Some like the rational reminder podcsst too with Ben Felix. Also good but it's US based. 
  • Try Meaningful Money with Pete Matthews, who is also on YouTube, with a great depth of resources across various series

    Yes I tried one of the meaningful money ones the other day Willow and I do intend to listen to more as it was good.

    Other than that I have primarily listened to the mad fientist and a few random finance ones I have stumbled across mainly US based which as Chillibob says some just feel like plugs rather than a variety of opinions.

    I shall try Many happy returns as that sounds good. 
  • Also another high quality UK contributor in the financial planning space is George at Principles Personal Finance who is on YouTube and sends a weekly email. Highly recommend you take a look

    regular podcasts from the Maven Money Advisor could be another UK focused source of information

  • The daily mail money podcast on audioboom.com is also excellent

    Pete Matthews (meaningful money) and George Agan (principles personal finance) well worth a watch on YouTube
