Thanks for the heads up. Should be interesting. I enjoyed reading the MMM forum back before I retired and I still occasionally pop over to see what's new.

It was fun to interview such a popular early retirement icon.

Jon, I appreciate the hard work you put into getting these out. Sometimes the guests are larger outsized personalities than the topic of discussion for example MMM, Bill Sharpe etc. For such guests non-live format with rapid fire questions (from a long list submitted in the forum) may extract most of out of the guests than a live format. Just a thought I wanted to share. It may also help with the flow of the conversation. Or maybe have a prerecorded part and live part etc

I appreciated the interjection with additional information about health insurance.

I don't think a "health share" plan like the one that the guest uses would be suitable for me. I buy insurance for things that I cannot self-insure against, and I don't think I can effectively self-insure against catastrophic medical events. I feel that an ACA-compliant health insurance plan is best for me since I believe that having such a plan would ensure that I will be able to get necessary care covered.

Thanks, kd2008. I appreciate the feedback.

You may be happy to learn that the Sharpe interview will not be live.

[Jon Luskin]

Thanks, Lyrrad.

I appreciate that feedback.

To be clear, I'm a fan of MMM. Yet, I didn't want folks to think they wouldn't have any risk with that health-sharing approach.

Thanks and appreciation from me as well. I enjoyed listening - it was quite well done.

I think john Oliver did a story on these in particular the Christian associated ones

Thank you, stoaX. I appreciate it.

Lots of thanks to all the folks who make this possible. Nathan Garza does a lot of work editing the show - helping transform the live episode into a podcast.

I’m looking forward to this one! I don’t see it on Apple Podcasts yet…

Great job with interviews and transcripts!

This resonated with me well:
And really in the long run, you're just like a boat on a big wavey ocean. Your fortunes go up and down and up and down. But as long as you're still in the boat and moving forwards, that's really what you should be shooting for is enjoying your life as it goes on. And it's a great thing to be early retired and not have to work and then have work as an option.

Does this work for you?

It's been in my feed (and, evidently the feeds of many others) for about two weeks now.

Yeah it’s weird! In Apple Podcasts I see the April episode (and all prior ones as far as I can tell) but not this latest one.

Oh! I’ve just realized that this is NOT the “bogleheads on investing” podcast. User error.

Yep! That's my fault for creating a second podcast for the Bogleheads.

'Bogleheads Live' started out as a live Q&A on Twitter. So, why not record that live Q&A, edit it, and then release it as a podcast?
