Mark Heiman Podcast

My dad is visiting me and we did our first in person podcast together! (so much better in person). I thought of 5 financial related questions to ask him.

Daniel Schwartz (Dan, Danny, Buckbanger), is a pilot who learned to fly at the Cub Air Flight School in Hartford, WI. Dan currently flys a Piper PA-12 Super Cruiser, which is an old school two seater plane from the 1940s.

Dan and I went flying to Palmyra for breakfast, then flew over Lake Michigan to do some tricks on the way back. Once we got back, we setup the podcast equipment at the airport and started recording. Dan explains the basics of flying and how to get started if you are interested in getting a pilot's license.

There has been a lot of demand for Todd to come back and talk finances. We decided to focus this podcast on the different types of Investment Accounts (401k, IRA, Roth, Traditional, Brokerage, HSA). We talk through the advantages and disadvantages of all of each of those, as well as tax implications.

In the 2nd half, we each choose our favorite 3 stocks to invest in your retirement, 3 stocks to invest medium term (brokerage), and 3 stocks to invest in an emergency fund - 18 stocks in total.

Lauren and I look back on the ultra running races we did last year, as well as her planned races this year, which includes her first 100 mile run. Lauren has completed two 50 mile races, as well as a 100k race (plus many others in between). Last year, she helped me through Last Runner Standing in Duluth, as well as my first 50 miler in Devil's Lake.

We have been wanting to do this podcast for awhile and finally found the time! Laura, Laura's friend Caitriona, and Caitriona's friend Grayson step into the studio to discuss Rock climbing. Grayson has been rock climbing for over eight years, and Caitriona is not far behind him. We discuss the basics of the sport as well as a scary free solo story.

Corey debuted on my podcast on episodes 8 and 9, but we didn't have a chance to talk specifically about his job at Edward Jones, the economy, or stocks in depth. We cover all of that, plus he tosses a joke or two in per usual.

Last weekend, I sat down in person with Chris and Brandon to discuss the apps they have coded and the path they have gone down during and after college. They went from coding YoEats in our Mifflin house to Brio, to Care Pool, and finally to the new app and business they are currently building. We talk through the entire process and timeline from our Junior year until now. 10th podcast and it is awesome!

Last podcast (8) + Daniel. First time having 4 people all at once, another fun in person podcast!

Corey and Pat are in town for the Iowa vs Wisconsin game, so I set up the podcast studio and poured them a few glasses of crown (and had some CBD). Daniel wasn't quite to Madison, so we did another podcast with him after (going to post that one next after I edit it). Topics include: Haley and Pat get a flat tire in rush hour traffic, Corey's thoughts on the economy, and a bunch of nonsense in between. This is the first podcast I have posted that has been in person (Joe Rogan would be proud).

Pat is back for his second episode, and we talk through three ways in which you can enhance your body and mind. I have never tried Cryotherapy or Infrared Saunas before this weekend, but Pat has raved about both to me, so I had to give it a try. Why not throw in a float tank and do all three in a single day.
