Hello and welcome to Broconomics. Now, in this episode, I have for you an absolute treat.

I'm going to be interviewing possibly one of the most inspiring, savvy, charming,

Devonair, insightful chaps that I have the pleasure of knowing. I refer, of course, to myself.

Dan, welcome to Broconomics. Well, thank you,

Dan. I appreciate the honesty of that introduction. And may I say, it's an absolute pleasure

to be working with somebody such as yourself. Really look forward to coming on the show.

Well, no, thank you for coming on.

You're very much an audience favourite, so it seemed only natural to get you on the show,

and I'm just delighted that you could be here, that you could make the times a lot.

So, look, Dan, you're simply a fascinating person to speak to, but really what I wanted to try and get in this interview is I wanted to find out about you.

how it is that you look at markets and how you understand it.

you are quite honestly a endlessly fascinating person, and I think we'd just like to hear your story. So, you know, if out a little bit more about you because you are quite honestly, an endlessly

Well, yes, shoredan, yeah. I mean, I'd be perfectly happy to, to go through that. So, yeah,
