| 7/15/26 | Philip McInnis – How to invest for the next 30 years… | Get rich quick and get skinny quick have a lot in common. Neither one works.This week on The Free Lunch Podcast, Colin and Greg welcome Phil McInnis, Chief Investment Strategist at Avantis Investors, who compares building wealth to building fitness. In his view, it's not the shortcuts that matter, it's the boring basics done consistently over decades. From goal setting to factor investing to why your brain isn't wired for market swings, Phil shares what he thinks investors with 10, 20, or 30 years ahead of them should focus on. | — | ||||||
| 7/8/26 | Why Great Investors Think Like Great Coaches - World Cup Edition! | The World Cup isn't just great TV, it's one of the best crash courses in investing you'll ever get. In this solo episode, Colin breaks down what championship soccer teams can teach us about building a championship portfolio: why the best team doesn't always win on any given day, why bonds are the unsung goalkeeper of your portfolio, and why chasing last year's hottest stock is a lot like betting on last year's Golden Boot winner. Plus, why "home field advantage" might be quietly costing Canadian investors returns. Whether you're watching every match or don't know a striker from a midfielder, this episode will change how you think about risk, discipline, and playing the long game. | — | ||||||
| 7/1/26 | Why the AI is there a tech sell off?? | Great companies do not always make great investmentsWith AI stocks grabbing headlines lately, Colin and Greg ask the question a lot of investors skip: what are you actually paying for that future growth?In this episode of The Free Lunch Podcast, they talk through market concentration, the Magnificent Seven, and why a diversified portfolio usually beats chasing the next big theme, whether that's AI today or dot coms back in 2000. | — | ||||||
| 6/24/26 | A New Fed Chair | What if "higher for longer" just means normal?That's the question Colin and Jacob dig into on this week's episode of The Free Lunch Podcast, and it's one worth sitting with.For most of the last decade, ultra-low interest rates felt like the baseline. But historically? They were the anomaly. Colin and Jacob talk through what the new Fed chair's first meeting signals, why the bond market matters more than most people think, and what today's rate environment actually means for retirees, homeowners, and long-term investors. | — | ||||||
| 6/17/26 | IPO Mania! | Colin and Greg had one of their most honest conversations yet on The Free Lunch Podcast this week, talking through IPO mania, the current wave of AI and space company offerings, and why the strategies that sound disciplined on paper often fall apart in practice.Their take? If you want to put a small slice of your portfolio into something speculative because you find it interesting, that's very different from betting your future on it. | — | ||||||
