Our take on EconTalk podcast

Have you ever been stuck in a business situation, and the only way out is to make a lifetime decision? Probably you had so many scapegoats but what you really needed was something to tell you if the decision you make is worthwhile in the first place. This is where EconTalk by the host Russ Roberts comes in. He talks about how best human beings must approach their life's most significant decisions.

This podcast offers excellent ideas on embracing possibilities rather than focusing so much on problem-solving.
