When I have time, the way I like to “exercise” is to walk, and if at all possible, listen to a great book or a podcast as I go. This last month I was given a tip from a friend and client of mine for a fabulous podcast which I thought I would share with all of you. If you have podcasts or are on iTunes, simply steer your browser over to a Bloomberg Podcast called “Masters In Business” with Barry Ritholtz. In the January 29th episode, they interview Jonathan Miller of Miller Samuel, Inc., a real estate appraisal and accounting firm. They discuss high end home sales in NYC and the Hamptons, critique the Case-Schiller Index and have some other insights that I think you might find fascinating.
On a much lighter, but very addictive note, also check out the podcast called Serial-Season One (it’s from the creators of This American Life). Hosted by Sarah Koenig, this true story unfold one episode at a time and is impossible to stop listening to!
