Faded echoes and very distorted. I want to listen to this but can understand very little discussed on this podcast. I have tried muliple episodes on Fire Fox, IE, iTunes, and downloaded, all are the same. I am rating podcast for the Podcast Awards and want to rank this site higher but the quality of the audio makes it unacceptable. Please clean up the audio. John You should know how to do this.

I love No Agenda, but DHUnplugged is better IMHO. I would actually rather donate to this one than NA or the Blog. What ETF disc do I have to buy to get another podcast?

The new datacenter will significantly advance the amount of computer-automated trading that already dominates global markets, housing as it will "several football fields of cutting-edge computing equipment for hedge funds and other firms that engage in high-frequency trading," according to the WSJ.

We should be giving GS all of the government money we can if they'll pay Buffet-like interest back to us! You guys should look into this “Flash Trading” nonsense.
