This is the Rational Reminder Podcast, a weekly reality check on sensible investing and financial decision making from Three Canadians. We're hosted by me, Benjamin Felix, Chief Investment Officer, Dan Bordelotti, portfolio manager, and Ben Wilson, head of M<unk>A at PWL Capital. Welcome to episode 394 of the podcast. We got a interesting topic to discuss today. Look forward to getting into it.

I don't know if anybody noticed that unenthusiastic pause after I said the introduction there, but we did get some feedback that our enthusiasm has fallen since episode 80 back with uh me and Cameron. So we're gonna work on our enthusiasm. I just want everyone to know we will read that feedback at the end of the episode, which we appreciate. We genuinely appreciate the feedback.

It was just funny to read. Well the listener just said we sounded tired which is accurate. We sound tired in that there are long, long pauses. Nobody says anything.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.49.
