Podcasts about Munger

Cornell Winston, president of the American Association of Law Libraries, brings a unique perspective to law librarianship, having spent 45 years in libraries across diverse settings — from a hospital library where he started as a student worker; to the former Whittier Law School; to prominent law firms Munger, Tolles & Olson and Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe; and, for the last 24 years, as law librarian in the U.S. Attorney's office in Los Angeles. Winston joined host Bob Ambrogi to record this interview just weeks before AALL's annual meeting in Portland, Ore., July 19-22, with the theme "Be Bold." It's a fitting theme for a profession that's undergone dramatic transformation, evolving from traditional book-focused roles to becoming essential gatekeepers and evaluators of legal technology and information. In their conversation, Winston discusses the evolving challenges facing law librarians — from safeguarding disappearing government information to testing AI-driven legal research tools. They explore why he considers it critical for law librarians to have "a seat at the table" in their organizations, the opportunities for newcomers to the profession, and why Winston believes the profession's future remains bright despite predictions of its demise. Winston also shares insights on AI adoption, the importance of law librarians as strategic partners rather than just support staff, and how the profession continues to prove that while Google may find you a million answers, a librarian will find you the best one.    Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.

On today's special episode of I AM HOME, we're revisiting one of our most insightful conversations in honor of the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholders Meeting, which took place earlier this month. Originally recorded in 2023, this episode remains as relevant and inspiring as ever. Our hosts are joined by Amy Myers, Chief Marketing Officer at NFM, for a captivating interview with Todd Combs—a multi-billion-dollar investment manager at Berkshire Hathaway and the President and CEO of GEICO. Todd takes us behind the scenes of his incredible journey: from sitting in a Columbia University lecture hall listening to Warren Buffett, to an unforgettable meeting with Charlie Munger at the California Club and ultimately accepting the call to join Berkshire Hathaway. Join us for a personal and profound look into the world of high stakes investing, following your childhood dreams and the importance of building a sense of home wherever life takes you.

Pablo Martínez Bernal, gran conocedor de la figura de Buffett, como inversor y como empresario, visita Tu Dinero Nunca Duerme. Warren Buffett sigue siendo el mejor inversor del mundo. Pero desde hace unos días, lo es más por su historial que por su labor diaria. Porque el sabio de Omaha anunció que se retiraba, por sorpresa, en la última conferencia anual de inversores de Berkshire Hathaway. Y a partir de ahí se desataron las especulaciones, ¿quiénes serán sus sucesores: en la dirección y en la selección de activos? ¿Seguirán los nuevos responsables de Berkshire manteniendo la línea que hizo famosos a Buffett y a su socio Charlie Munger? Para ayudarnos a responder a estas preguntas, esta semana nos acompaña en Tu Dinero Nunca Duerme el Head of Sales para Iberia de Amiral Gestion, Pablo Martínez Bernal, un gran conocedor de la figura de Buffett, como inversor y como empresario: "Ha sido una gran sorpresa. Todo el mundo daba por hecho que iba a hacer como Charlie Munger, que se iba a morir siendo consejero delegado de la compañía. En esta profesión, las canas cuentan: el acumulado de muchos años de conocimientos son un ayudado. Pero quizás el mismo ha pensado que no quiere ser un problema, sobre todo si aparece un deterioro cognitivo". "El rol por el que siempre ha insistido que le gustaría ser recordado es el de profesor. Ésa es la gran contribución para la comunidad inversora. Fue profesor en la Universidad de Nebraska y ha continuado con esa labor de una u otra forma (por ejemplo, recibiendo a grupos de estudiantes de MBA). A lo largo de estos años, el acumulado implica que ha dado clases a decenas de miles de inversores", nos recuerda Martínez Bernal. ¿Y qué hay detrás de tantos años de éxito? ¿Algún secreto que nadie más conoce?: "No diría que hay un secreto. Warren Buffet, antes de leer el libro El inversor inteligente (de Benjamin Graham), ya invertía, porque empezó a los 11 años. Lo hacía usando los gráficos: es decir, la gente no lo sabe pero era trader. Es curioso cómo una persona que había empezado mal, tira todos los sistemas que le estaban dando dinero, y apuesta por el value investing. Por eso, su secreto consiste en encontrarse con un libro y darse cuenta de que era la filosofía adecuada, que no era sencillo". Eso sí, aunque siga siendo un value de pura cepa, el gran inversor sí ha evolucionado a lo largo de los años: "Buffett no ha cambiado lo fundamental, el value investing, pero sí se ha adaptado. Una de sus claves es que la filosofía ha permanecido intacta, pero el cómo invierta ha cambiado mucho. De los años 50 a 2020, las compañías han cambiado mucho. Ha evolucionado con el paso del tiempo. Munger le dijo en su momento que lo que hacía (comprar empresas de baja calidad) no era escalable. Y a partir de la inversión en See's Candies cambió la forma en la que invertía" Eso sí, nuestro invitado cree que habrá pocos cambios en la nave: "La cultura empresarial de BRK sigue intacta. Estarán Greg Able, que será el nuevo consejero delegado a partir del 1 de enero de 2026; es canadiense que era parte del círculo cercano de Buffett. El rol más importante, el de asignador del capital, lo van a heredar Todd Combs y Ted Weschler".

Y después de tanto tiempo llegó el día. Warren Buffet anunció el sábado que tras 60 años, deja el cargo de CEO de la compañía. El Oráculo de Omaha aprovechó la cita anual con los accionistas para anunciar el esperado adiós. Aunque señaló que no se va a desentender del todo de Berkshire Hathaway, ya que como indicó “todavía seguiré por aquí y posiblemente seré útil en algunos casos”. Su sustituto ya está claro o por lo menos el más deseado por Buffet. Greg Abel es el caballo ganador del inversor multimillonario. Y es que era el sucesor designado desde 2021, pero el anuncio le sorprendió igual que al resto del mercado. En sus manos queda el futuro de una empresa que Buffet ha convertido en uno de los gigantes de la inversión. Para Munesh Melwani, Socio Fundador de Cross Capital, una de las claves de la gran dimensión que obtuvo Buffet con Berkshire es la asociación que ha tenido en los últimos cincuenta años con Charlie Munger, vicepresidente de la compañía muchos años y él que es considerado como el principal socio del Oráculo de Omaha. En cambio para Luis García, gestor de MAPFRE AM, lo que explica el éxito del multimillonario es la transición que hizo del Value. Aunque el sábado no fue sólo el día de la sorpresiva despedida de Buffet. Berkshire Hathaway presentó resultados, unos resultados con unos beneficios decepcionantes. Estos se fueron hasta los 4600 millones de dólares, un 64% menos que el año pasado. Y es que la compañía sigue reduciendo sus ventas netas de acciones fueron de 1500 millones de dólares. ¿Cómo están ahora estructuradas sus inversiones? La empresa tenía una liquidez de 350.000 millones de dólares, de los cuales 300.000 han ido para bonos de tesoro. Aunque Buffet reconoció que la compañía estuvo a punto de invertir 10.000 millones en los últimos días. Sabemos los resultados y quién lo sustituye pero ¿Quién es Greg Abel? Nacido en Canadá, en 1992 empezó su andadura en PricewaterhouseCoopers. Después pasó a Mid American Energy, que fue al tiempo adquirida por Berkshire y que supuso la llegada a la empresa. Uno de los puntos más chocantes es que a Warren Buffet no le convencía Greg Abel en un principio. David Sokol, CEO de Mid American, convenció tanto a Buffet como a Munger de la valía de Abel. El Oráculo de Omaha es conocido por aprovechar los momentos de crisis para conseguir grandes inversiones. Eso es lo que hizo también Abel con la crisis de 2008. Gracias a la cancelación de Constellation Energy, que en vez de con Berkshire se fue con EDP, Mid American consiguió 1.000 millones de dólares de indemnización. Así comenzaron las andaduras de Abel hasta convertirse en lo que es hoy: la inversión más valiosa de Warren Buffet.

Send us a textWhy do harmful policies like tariffs keep coming back despite universal condemnation from economists? The answer lies in the dynamics of collective action and concentrated interests.In this eye-opening conversation with G. Patrick Lynch, Senior Fellow at Liberty Fund, Mike Munger explores the fascinating world of public choice theory and how it explains some of democracy's most persistent puzzles. Lynch, a self-described "popularizer of public choice," breaks down complex economic principles into digestible insights about political behavior.The discussion begins with the foundations of public choice theory—the application of economic reasoning to political decisions. Far from portraying politicians as uniquely self-interested, public choice simply acknowledges that all humans respond to incentives, whether in markets or politics. As Lynch explains, "It's a mistake to characterize public choice as people being just materially self-interested." Even Mother Teresa was pursuing her goals single-mindedly—the definition of self-interest properly understood.When the conversation turns to tariffs, Lynch delivers a masterclass in why bad policies persist. Manufacturing interests receive concentrated benefits and organize effectively, while consumers bear diffuse costs. "That $70,000 job costs consumers $210,000 to $250,000 in increased prices," Munger notes. But since an individual consumer might pay just pennies more per purchase, they won't mobilize political opposition.Perhaps most fascinating is the exploration of Elinor Ostrom's Nobel Prize-winning work on common-pool resources. Conventional wisdom suggested that without government intervention, shared resources face inevitable destruction through overuse. Yet Ostrom discovered countless examples worldwide where communities developed sophisticated management systems to sustain resources over generations.If you've ever wondered why policies that economists universally condemn keep returning, or why small groups seem to dominate our politics despite majority rule, this conversation offers profound and sometimes unsettling answers.

He goes in depth on what he learned from Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger in the process of crafting his book, including understanding incentives, management turnover, and which macroeconomic factors are important. (1:46) Next, Alex talks about the "pointed" questions Buffett and Munger got during the dot-com era from shareholders who doubted their abilities. Then he breaks down his own investing style, how that style has evolved over the years, and how he got interested in investing in the first place. This leads to a discussion about struggling retailer Five Below (which Alex is keeping an eye on to see if it can turn its business around) and Dollar Tree (which Alex owns and still likes today). (19:53) Finally, Alex delves further into the retail space.

Liz Neubauer Freinberg '98 is Chief Legal Officer and General Counsel for the LA 2028 Olympics. In this episode, Liz discusses LA28's proposed athletic venues, transportation challenges, and "Olympic Village" site—as well as the notion of LA28 as a “comeback story,” highlighting the city's aspirations to rebuild after January's devastating wildfires. Liz also tells her own story, as the eldest of five Neubauer sisters who all attended Harvard-Westlake—after which she attended Columbia and Michigan Law, worked for two influential judges, took legal roles at Munger, Tolles & Olson and TMZ, before finding herself helping to lead the 2028 Olympic games. Liz references Joy Taniguchi of Warner Avenue Elementary School, Karl Kleinz and Francine Applebaum Werner '68 of Harvard-Westlake, and two judges (Hon. Joseph A. Greenaway Jr. and Hon. Margaret M. Morrow), as profound influences and mentors.

"In my whole life, I have known no wise people over a broad subject matter area who didn't read all the time. None. Zero. You'd be amazed at how much Warren reads; at how much I read.

They think I'm a book with a couple of legs sticking out." - Charlie MungerThe Investor Series rolls on today, but with a bit of a different look and feel.  Our good friend and usual co-host Aleck Arena will not be joining in on this conversation.  Instead, our very own Jay Doran will be flying solo and discussing one of the great great minds of the modern investing world, Mr. Charles T. Munger.  When it comes to investing, there are few voices that ring out louder and clearer and have had more of an impact in the space than Charlie Munger.  You don't come to be Warren Buffet's right hand for decades without knowing a thing or two.  Today, Jay is discussing some of the finer points of Mr. Munger's work and why he will always be remembered as a titan in his industry.  We hope you enjoy this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.

This Day in Legal History:  Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil ServiceOn April 7, 1933, the German government enacted the Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service, a key early legal step in the Nazi regime's campaign to marginalize and exclude Jews and political dissenters from public life. The law targeted civil servants, stating that anyone who was not of “Aryan” descent or who held views deemed politically unreliable—especially Communists and Social Democrats—could be dismissed from government service. While phrased in bureaucratic language, the law was a thinly veiled act of political and racial purging. Jewish teachers, professors, judges, and other state employees were removed from their posts, some having served Germany for decades, including veterans of World War I.The law also gave the regime a tool to begin shaping state institutions along Nazi ideological lines. Its vague language about “unreliability” gave officials wide discretion to remove not only Jews but anyone who opposed the Nazis or failed to show sufficient loyalty. Although certain Jewish individuals were temporarily exempted under a “front-line fighter” clause—meant to placate concerns about fairness—the loophole would soon be closed in later legislation.This marked the first legal codification of anti-Semitism in Nazi Germany, providing a model for further exclusionary laws such as the 1935 Nuremberg Laws. It also demonstrated how laws could be used not only to formalize discrimination but to normalize it, embedding it into the everyday machinery of the state. By disguising oppression as administrative reform, the Nazi government laid the groundwork for a bureaucratic system of persecution that would escalate into far more violent phases in the years to come.Kirkland & Ellis, the world's highest-grossing law firm, is in negotiations with the Trump administration to avoid being targeted by an executive order similar to those issued against several of its competitors. The firm reportedly reached out to the White House proactively, hoping to strike a deal that would spare it from the penalties imposed on others—such as revoking security clearances, limiting federal access, or canceling client contracts.Other cowardly firms like Paul Weiss, Skadden Arps, and Milbank have already secured deals involving multimillion-dollar pledges for pro bono legal work aligned with White House priorities. These agreements also include commitments to avoid discriminatory diversity practices and to recruit ideologically diverse attorneys. Kirkland, though not yet the subject of an executive order, is one of 20 firms under Equal Employment Opportunity Commission scrutiny following Trump's directives.In 2024, Kirkland earned nearly $9 billion, with its lawyers playing key roles in major private equity and M&A deals, topping Bloomberg Law's transactional rankings. The firm's aggressive style and market dominance have made it a heavyweight in the legal world, and this move signals its intent to shield its interests amid the Trump administration's ongoing pressure campaign against firms seen as politically opposed.$9 billion in earnings is, apparently, not enough to buy a spine. Kirkland Talks Deal With Trump White House, Looks to Avoid OrderMore than 500 law firms have signed onto a court brief supporting Perkins Coie in its legal challenge against a Trump executive order that penalizes the firm over past political work and diversity policies. The brief, filed with U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell, criticizes what it describes as a dangerous effort to intimidate the legal profession, warning that legal representation of disfavored causes may now provoke government retaliation. Perkins Coie filed the lawsuit on March 11, following Trump's order targeting the firm for its past representation of Hillary Clinton's campaign and its internal diversity policies. Several firms targeted by similar orders—such as WilmerHale, Jenner & Block, and Covington & Burling—have either sued or signed the brief. Others, including once again the aforementioned Paul Weiss and Skadden Arps, reached deals with Trump to avoid formal action.Judge Howell has already blocked parts of Trump's order, calling it unconstitutional and a threat to the legal system's foundations. The White House maintains the orders are lawful exercises of presidential authority. The brief was spearheaded by former Obama Solicitor General Donald Verrilli, who now practices at Munger, Tolles & Olson, one of several prominent firms suing the administration over related matters. Many top law firms have stayed silent, but the growing backlash reflects broad concern about the use of presidential power to retaliate against legal opposition. Critics say the executive orders weaponize the law to chill dissent and undercut core legal protections.More than 500 law firms back Perkins Coie suit against punitive Trump order | ReutersA U.S. Department of Justice attorney has been placed on administrative leave after failing to defend the government's actions in a wrongful deportation case that a federal judge described as “wholly lawless.” The case involves Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a legally present Salvadoran migrant with a valid work permit, who was mistakenly deported despite a court order blocking his removal. U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis ordered that he be returned to Maryland and found no legal basis for his arrest, detention, or deportation, noting he had complied with all immigration requirements and had no criminal record.At a recent hearing, DOJ lawyer Erez Reuveni struggled to explain the deportation and admitted he lacked evidence justifying the government's actions. Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed that Reuveni and his supervisor August Flentje have been sidelined from the case. The administration is appealing the order but has acknowledged in court filings that Abrego Garcia's deportation was a mistake.The deported man is now being held in a high-risk prison in El Salvador. The Trump administration has justified its actions by claiming gang affiliations, though there are no charges against Abrego Garcia. The case highlights broader concerns about due process and immigration enforcement under the current administration, with critics pointing to a pattern of ignoring legal protections in deportation proceedings.US sidelines DOJ lawyer involved in deportation case, which judge calls 'wholly lawless' | Reuters This is a public episode.

EPISODE 694: Behind the Mitten Road Trip -- Bay City to FrankenmuthIn this episode of "Behind the Mitten," hosts John Gonzalez and Amy Sherman celebrate 10 years of exploring Michigan's Great Lakes State. They embark on a road trip from Bay City to Frankenmuth, visiting local attractions like Tummyache candy store and John's Bar. The conversation highlights the importance of community, local businesses, and upcoming festivals in Frankenmuth, including the opening of a new water park. The hosts share their love for Michigan's culture, food, and the joy of road trips.Segment 1: The trip begins at Tummy Ache Candy Store in Bay City, and Amy and Gonzo meet Starr Henning, who co-owns the store with her husband, Michael, and they also operate an ice cream truck called "Starshine." It's a fun first stop!Segment 2: Amy and Gonzo introduce you to the charmingly awesome John's Bar & Party Store located in Munger right on Hwy 15. When we say right on the highway, it's a house that is just steps from the corner of Tuscola and Munger Roads, on your way south to Frankenmuth. Owner Kellie Brown, who co-owns the bar with her mom Mary Ann, and who's parents previously owned it, welcome everyone in this unssuming house/restaurant/bar. Local beef meets that famous griddle for the perfect flavorful sear, pick your patties and toppings and Kellie will get to work like the pro that she is. Everyone here is friendly and welcoming.Segment 3: After their stop at John's Bar, they travel about 15 miles south to Frankenmuth to visit Amy Zehnder Grossi at Michigan on Main, which is a sister restaurant to Bavarian Inn. It's a familiar stop because Amy and Gonzo were good friends of martriarch Dorothy Zehnder, a true Michigan treasure who passed away in 2023 at age 101. As president of Bavarian Inn Restaurant, Amy Zehnder Grossi shares what's new, including the just-opened Bavarian Blast, one of Michigan's biggest water parks. Segment 4: The night ends with a wine and charcuterie experience at Prost! in Frankenmuth. It feels like a big-city restaurant in the Bavarian-themed village. It has a cozy fireplace and lively atmosphere.That completes our Bay City to Frankenmuth road trip!Chapters00:00 -- Celebrating Michigan's Great Lakes State01:11 -- Road Trip Adventures: Bay City to Frankenmuth02:55 -- Exploring Tummyache: A Candy Wonderland12:54 -- John's Bar: A Local Favorite23:08 -- Frankenmuth: A Home Away From Home25:45 -- Bavarian Inn: A Family Tradition28:56 -- Exciting New Developments: Water Park Coming Soon29:48 -- Festivals in Frankenmuth: Celebrating Community33:27 -- Prost: A Cozy Wine Bar ExperienceLearn more about Behind the Mitten at amyandgonzo.com.

What to learn from Buffett & Munger Unscripted, Alex Morris?

At BNC#7 in Hermanus, seasoned investors Piet Viljoen and Kokkie Kooyman shared personal journeys inspired by Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger's Berkshire Hathaway. Viljoen traced his path from a junior analyst in Cape Town to embracing life-changing wisdom at the “Woodstock of Capitalism,” focusing on trust, common-sense investing, and sidestepping institutional pitfalls. Kooyman recounted how a 1999 nudge from a colleague led him to Buffett and Munger's rational business thinking during the tech bubble, spotlighting their disciplined simplicity and knack for seizing opportunities. Together, they revealed timeless principles that built Berkshire into a titan—and shaped their own success. Following their keynote speeches, Viljoen and Kooyman joined BizNews founder Alec Hogg for a lively Q&A session, diving into Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger's enduring lessons. From Buffett's reading obsession to his bold Apple investment, the trio explored practical investing wisdom, recommended must-read books, and debated asset allocation in China. They wrapped up with reflections on Berkshire Hathaway's cash hoard and Buffett's S&P 500 advice, blending humour with sharp insights.

In this urgent episode of Working People, we focus on the Trump-Musk administration's all-out assault on federal workers and its takeover and reordering of our entire system of government. “At least 20,000 federal workers have so far been fired by the Trump administration,” Ed Pilkington and Chris Stein report in The Guardian, “most of them recent hires on probationary periods who lack employment protections. In addition, the White House claims that more than 75,000 employees have accepted its offer of deferred resignations. The purge has prompted speculation that Trump is engaging in one of the biggest job cutting rounds in US history, which could have a powerful knock-on effect on the American economy.” In today's episode, we take you to the front lines of struggle and hear directly from three federal workers about what is happening inside the federal government, why it concerns all of us, and how federal workers and concerned citizens of all stripes are fighting back. Panelists include: Cat Farman, president of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) Union, Local 335 of the National Treasury Employees Union; Jasmine McAllister, a rank-and-file CFPB Union member and data scientist who was illegally fired two weeks ago; and Will Munger, a rangeland scientist who works across the intermountain west and who, until this month, served as a postdoctoral researcher with the USDA Agricultural Research Service.  Additional links/info:  CFPB Union website,  Federal Unionists Network website, Bluesky page, and Instagram   5Calls.Org website  Ed Pilkington & Chris Stein, The Guardian, “US personnel office walks back email ultimatum from Musk to workers” Maximillian Alvarez, The Real News Network, “Elon Musk is making technofascism a reality before our eyes” Democracy Now!, “‘Grand Theft Government': Federal workers send SOS over Musk's DOGE, mass firings & service cuts” Emily Anthes & Apoorva Mandavilli, The New York Times, “Mass federal firings may imperil crops, cattle and pets” Permanent links below… Leave us a voicemail and we might play it on the show!

Alex Morris watched hundreds of hours of these meetings and then he gathered, organized, and edited the most interesting ideas into 450+ pages — all in Buffett and Munger's own words.  I thought it would be fun to rip through a bunch of Munger and Buffett's best ideas very rapidly.

This quarter of the Future of Agriculture podcast is made possible by Case IH: https://www.caseih.com/en-us/unitedstatesOcean Mist Farms: https://www.oceanmist.com/Today's episode features Mark Munger of Ocean Mist Farms in Castroville, California in the Salinas Valley. Mark shares a story that I think is very relevant to a lot of agriculture production today, all over the world. Although they've grown a great business to produce consistent, high quality, affordable, safe, nutritious commodities, they still face challenges. Rising costs, regulations, competition, and consumers whose expectations for convenience have gone up dramatically. These headwinds have propelled the company in the direction of innovation, and Mark is going to share that with us today. For background, Mark Munger is the director of marketing at Ocean Mist Farms, where he has been for the last 2 ½ years. But Mark is definitely not new to the industry - he has worked in fresh produce for almost 40 years, including positions at the Produce Marketing Association, Driscoll's, 4Earth Farms, and others. Brought to you by Case IH: Case IH designs,engineers and produces cutting-edge farm equipment based on a comprehensive understanding of farmers' needs, wants and challenges, integrating these insights into their development and manufacturing.For example, take their Model Year 25 Magnum tractor. The new Magnum is purposefully designed to answer farmers' needs in every design and engineering choice. Improved horsepower for pulling heavier loads, faster. Bundled, integrated and ready-to-go precision tech for greater accuracy in the field. And a transmission farmers can tweak for improved control and performance in different tasks. That kind of design thinking is exactly where the future of ag is headed, and that's why you'll be hearing me talk to the folks at Case IH at different points throughout this quarter about what they do and how they're working to push the ag forward.

So they may pull from a portion of an earnings call, or a 10k, whatever it may be and then answer your question. The best part- every portion of the answer is cited with the source document. Now- if you've tried to do any of this in ChatGPT you may know that the answers are often wrong or hallucinations. The way Fintool is able to outperform ChatGPT is their focus on the SEC filings.
