Summary

This week on The Property Podcast, The Robs have got a lockdown special for you. Since lockdown hit, everyone is trying to better themselves, whether that be learning a new skill, educating themselves on something they didn’t already know and then there are others who are just simply bored. So this week, The Robs are coming at you with a boat load of books, podcasts, videos and apps to help you get through lockdown. Here’s all the links to everything you need from today’s podcast: Podcasts An episode from The Pomp Podcast - 258: Billionaire Chamath Palihapitiya on How To Invest Through This Crisis Hardcore History Reply All - “The case of the missing hit” Meditative story Books Stephen Schwartzman - What It Takes Will Durant - Lessons of History Charles P. Kindleberger - Manias, Panics and Crashes: A History of Financial Crises "The Great Courses" on Audible TV / Streaming / YouTube Ray Dalio - Ted Talk Ryan Serhant keynote The Least Expected Day - Inside the Movistar Team 2019 Tom Scott on YouTube Two documentaries: The Dawn Wall and Free Solo Apps Investr An anti-recommendation of Next Door, but definitely give this Twitter feed a go for a good laugh Poker In Place There you go, plenty to keep you busy! Let us know if you have any of your own that you’d like to share or if you decide to give any of these a go, let us know what you thought. In the news this week, NRLA slams Citizens Advice for ‘misleading’ report. It looks like the National Residents Landlords Association aren’t happy with Citizens Advice after they released a report stating that 2.6 million private renters have missed a rent payment or are expected to do so as a result of the pandemic. However when you read further into the article, there were 25 people who said that they have missed a payment and 74 who said that they’re expecting to fall behind on payments. Once again, it shows that you shouldn’t believe the headlines. We’d love to hear what you think of this week’s Property Podcast over on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. You might even have a topic you’d like us to cover in the future - if so, pop us a message on social and we’ll see what we can do. Make sure you’ve liked and subscribed to our YouTube channel where we upload new content every week!

0:03.2	here with Rob D and you are listening to the Property Podcast.
0:05.8	Now, the lockdown has meant that people are trying to learn new things,
0:10.7	whether it's a new subject or a new skill.
0:13.2	And some of you are just a bit bored.

0:55.5	Association. So it seems that someone's unhappy here, Rob. What happened? What's played out?
1:00.3	Well, the NRLA has beaten us to our normal trick trick normally we pick up on suspect surveys or dodgy headlines and like to debunk them but they've beaten us to it.
1:08.0	They're talking about a piece of research carried out by citizens advice that suggests that 2.6 million private renters have missed a
1:15.1	rent payment or expect to do so as a result of the pandemic. Sounds really bad
1:19.6	doesn't it? But then as they point out when you actually go into the survey, they've extrapolated this figure from 25 people
1:26.5	who said in a survey that they're behind on their rent and a further 74 who say they expect to be behind.
1:32.3	So I mean, I get it it you can't go around and
