CFO Thought Leader
Cohosted by finance professionals Jack Sweeney, Ethan Carlson, and Steve Player, CFO Thought Leader features in-depth interviews with top CFOs in a variety of industries who drive change within their company.

Guests provide insight into leadership and business ideals. Topics include identifying the levers of efficient growth, when your tactic becomes your strategy, and establishing your work ethos.
Motley Fool Money

Freakonomics Radio
Hosted by economist Steven D. Levitt and journalist Stephen J. Dubner, coauthors of Freakonomics, Freakonomics Radio explores counter-intuitive ideas that challenge one or more preconceived ideas the majority of people have. Being able to challenge these long-held ideas is part of being a great CFO, CEO, or other business leaders. Dubner talks with Nobel laureates, intellectuals, and entrepreneurs about topics like taxes, economic growth, and sports gambling.
