SSAB - April 28, 2026
Description
Gotta get out more to take more album art pics!
Someone stole my water bottle! AND SKIPPING ROPE!
The gym is costing me more! WHY?!
Listening in to some of my older podcasts (back when they were only 20 minutes long!) Lots are available on my website under the “Archives” section. Not sure you’ll like listening to those, not sure I’ll keep them up! (Fixed up the Notion database a little bit.)
New feature to the podcast! A Google Sheet Stock Tracker! Find it below! Things to keep in mind! What is the 100-Age rule? (Missed a recent buyout: Shell buys ARC Resources!)
Trump attempt again. The Canadians I know must be happy. Or sad that he wasn’t “gotten”!
And what are some of the other books you recommend to read about China?
Tim Clissold - Mr. China
Fan Shen - Gang of One
Chan Koonchung - The Fat Years (fiction)
Jonathan Fenby - The Penguin History of Modern China
Paul Theroux - Riding the Iron Rooster
Jim Rogers - Adventure Capitalist
The Rape of Nanking
Wild Swans
