Hey there, it's Tracy Alloway and Joe Wisenthall. We are the co-hosts of the All Thoughts podcast, and we want to share the trailer for a new podcast right here at Bloomberg that we are very excited about, Money Stuff, the podcast. That's right. Friend of the pod, Matt Levine, is teaming up with our other friend and Bloomberg TV host Katie Greifeld to bring the Money Stuff newsletter to life. It's going to be great. Here's the trailer.

So, Matt, you write a newsletter. It's called Money Stuff. You've been doing it for a while. Almost 10 years, something like 10 years. It's pretty amazing that you don't have a podcast yet. You know, it is weird that I haven't had a podcast. People frequently say to me, you know, I enjoy your newsletter, but I'd like to hear you say it into my ear.

And I say, that would take a long time. But what we could do instead is I could chat about my newsletter with my good friend Katie. That's so incredible because when I meet people, they ask me, do you know Matt Levine? And now I can just direct them to this podcast. It's true. It's proof. that we know each other. When it comes to

money stuff, you write about a range of topics. What range of topics might we expect in the podcast version? A smaller range. Right. We only have 30 minutes. And in that time, we will talk about weird stories from the world of finance that somehow illuminate or say

something interesting about how finance works. You know, like many stuff. All the money stuff? Yeah. We will be talking about ETFs, the world of investing. That's what I like to talk about. We'll probably talk about horses and drosage a fair amount. Horses and drosage will come up more here than they do in the Money Stuff Newsletter.

And, you know, we'll talk to people. Maybe we'll have some guests on and we'll answer some reader questions if you have any. Yeah, look at weird. We'll get weird. We'll chat about financial news. Katie, I think it'll be fun. I think it will be fun. I'm Matt Levine, the Money Stuff columnist at Bloomberg Opinion.

And I'm Katie Greifeld. I'm a reporter and an anchor with Bloomberg News. Matt, where can people listen to the MoneySuff podcast? You can listen to the Money Stuff podcast on Apple Podcast. Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. The freedom of choice. I think we've successfully executed our trailer.
