ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗

Welcome to The Point, Basepoint's new podcast where we help simplify the world of finance and break through all the noise. Tune in to gain informative insight into the world of investments, timely finance and market discussions, and our principles-based approach to wealth management. 

We start each podcast episode with a 90-second segment on "What's the Most Important Thing", which is a quick snapshot of what we view as relevant and timely right now. Next, we dive right in and draw a listener topic or question out of a hat and have a candid conversation about it. The fun part, we don't know what the question will be, and that makes it interesting and exciting for us to discuss it with you. We are striving for a great listener experience by discussing financial topics in a relatable way. We hope you enjoy it.


Be sure to subscribe and follow along as we release episodes each month.
