| 0:00.0 | This is trend following radio where great thinking comes alive. |
| 0:10.9 | Nobel Prize winners, legendary traders, bestselling authors, and the pros that know what drive us irrational human beings. |
| 0:21.2 | I am your host, Michael Covel, not filtered, raw, honest. |
| 0:27.4 | That's my passion. |
| 0:33.4 | One of the advantages of doing this podcast, this might sound obvious, people listen. |
