Lol she's awful. I have a rule: listen until she mentions that she's from a rough area of the North or runs a small business. Then move onto to another podcast.

She really is useless. I wonder how she became recognised as a commentator...

You already have some good suggestions above, Im a big fan of acquired but the shows are super long.

The rest is history - so many great topics you can jump into. They have something for everyone (really enjoyed the latest Jack the Ripper one!)

Mostly US related:
Slate Money
The Daily (NYT)
High Performance
The Rest is Politics (US and UK)
The Journal
The Rest is Classified

This is my first job in a large corporate company, and I’m trying to gauge how long it normally takes to move from entry level to another internal position in the insurance industry. I have been applying internally for a year now and I am wondering if this is normal or if my company is just slow? I am a top performer, with great metrics, and I have some wonderful connections I’ve made who support me. I just can’t seem to move up. How long did it take you to move up? How many tries did it take?

I work at a ‘free market’ firm and have developed a very good reputation among partners. Naturally, they are drowning me in work. Each time a new case comes up, the partner will email asking if I have “time and interest” in helping. When I’m at capacity, I take these words at face value and explain why I can’t do it, and that seems to work out ok with no hard feelings. But what’s the “interest” thing? If I don’t want to work on a toxic tort case, do I just say that and pass?
