Odd Lots
Bloomberg
Bloomberg's Joe Weisenthal and Tracy Alloway interviewing experts on global markets and economic trends.
Why we picked this
We picked Odd Lots for the way hosts Joe Weisenthal and Tracy Alloway treat markets as physical systems rather than abstractions. The show trades financial jargon for concrete supply chains: how teapot refineries set fuel prices across Asia, what a $20,000 drone does to a cloud data center, and why token speed determines AI chip economics. Where other finance podcasts chase ticker movements, Odd Lots tracks the commodities, infrastructure, and logistics that actually move prices. The result is a feed that makes the mechanics of the global economy legible.
