Founders.

I'm sure many of y'all on this forum have already found the podcast Founders.

If not, it's a great, one-of-a-kind podcast which chronicles founders and other historical individuals with "founder mentality".

Probably the best episode I've listened to thus far –– and I've listened to most of them –– was the one on value investor Peter Cundill, who I hadn't heard of beforehand:
Founders – #160 Peter Cundill

Cundill comes across as absolutely genius level brilliant, and I'm psyched to read his book (called Routines & Orgies).

Here's a quote from him which I liked, which relates to investing:
"Study systems and financial statements. Remember, though, that the beauty of numbers can delude. Be intuitive, warm and fuzzy, in your analysis. Understanding relationships is as important in investment matters as financial analysis."

(I've never heard anyone describe a "warm and fuzzy" feeling in connection with financial statements, lol...)
