Great interview with Gottlieb. I've heard Jason McIntyre on the Herd many times (and other podcasts) and have always enjoyed him being interviewed. I subscribed to his new podcast because he's right up there with my other favorites, Colin Cowherd, Nick Wright, and Doug Gottlieb. Keep up the good work Jason. Very interesting show.
