00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:08,480
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to Odd Lots, a new podcast from Bloomberg.

2
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:11,040
Speaker 1: I'm Joseph Wisenthal, co host of What You Missed on

3
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 1: Bloomberg TV and an editor at Bloomberg Markets. I'm here

4
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 1: with my colleague Tracy Alloway. Hi there, I'm executive editor

5
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 1: of Bloomberg Markets, and I'm really excited to be here

6
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 1: for our new podcast, odd Lots. For those of you

7
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 1: who don't know, an odd thoughts is a small bundle

8
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: of stocks or bonds. It's relatively unusual. People. You usually

9
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: pay a premium to trade it. This is free. You're

10
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: not paying a premium. But we're going to be discussing

11
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 1: some interesting ideas, and so they don't normally fit within

12
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: the normal trading patterns of the day. Is at the

13
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 1: idea exactly? We're doing something a little bit different here

14
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: and how does it fit with you? Know? We? You

15
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,160
Speaker 1: and I. We do stuff on the web all day.

16
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 1: We blog and tweet and send out charts, and how

17
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: do you see what we're doing fitting with that? We

18
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: got a three hundred sixty degree view of markets. We

19
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: cover stocks, credit, bond, commodities, you name it, we're covering it.

20
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: This is our chance I think and you'll have to

21
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: tell me what you think about it to really get

22
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: into some of those themes that we're seeing and discuss

23
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: them in a bit more detail. Right, we're going to

24
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: be talking about finance, market economics, market structure, geo politics,

25
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: and everything that we kind of want to talk about.

26
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: We can think of odd lots as the overflow area

27
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: for all the interesting financial and market stuff that we see.

28
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: I wanted to have longer conversations with people. You always

29
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: want more time, and so for our first episode, we're

30
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: going to be talking with Tom Keene, the legendary host

31
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:39,559
Speaker 1: here at Bloomberg of Bloomberg Surveillance on TV and radio. Hello, Tom,

32
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: good to be here. Why do you like podcasts? And

33
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: you you talk about why you like them and you

34
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: think it's a good format. What appeals to the Yeah,

35
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: it's really important. We learned a lot years ago with iTunes.

36
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: With doing podcasts. The number one thing we know is

37
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: what we don't know about video. There's a huge mystery

38
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: to video is going to be consumed. There's no story

39
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: about audio. Audio gets consumed. That's a number one thing

40
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: about podcasts. So people will listen. We we we know

41
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 1: from all sorts of research, audio wins over video every

42
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: day that may change. People have been predicting it would

43
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: change for years, but so far post for the first episode,

44
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: you'll be able to listen to us talk about Tom

45
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,119
Speaker 1: Keane and his extraordinary and unusual background, as well as

46
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,519
Speaker 1: the economy, the big issues, and particularly how mathematics and

47
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:35,679
Speaker 1: music relate to the market. All right, well, I can't

48
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: wait to have this conversation and I hope everybody out
