I'm excited to share my podcast with Chris Abbott of 1035 Capital. Chris is a dumpster diver investor. He scours the corners of the market looking in the ugliest places and finding the ugliest stocks. I love it. I've got a soft spot for distressed/hated ideas. Maybe its because I'm reading/studying distressed investing currently. Or maybe its because dumpster diving feels like "real" value investing. We discussed a handful of ideas, including CSSE, VTNR, LFMD, and SLNH. It's wild that Chris has fewer than 200 followers on Twitter. Let's change that. Follow him @1035_capital.

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you had a great time with family and friends this Holiday Weekend. This week, I've got Dan Bianchini on the podcast. Dan is a retail investor that knows more about $MEEC than almost anyone. He's heavily invested (as of this episode) in the special situation, and he spends an hour discussing why. This was a thoughtful conversation. Dan is a serious retail investor and doesn't shy away from company red flags or legitimate bear arguments. It was very refreshing. I learned a ton, and I know you will too. If you enjoyed this podcast, check out Dan on Twitter @danban__. Finally, thanks to the following sponsors for making the podcast a reality!

I'm excited to have Conor Maguire on the podcast. Conor is a good friend and I can't believe it took this long to get him on the show. I enjoy Conor's work at Value Situations on Substack (link here). He's an excellent analyst who covers under-followed situations from an event-driven angle. This week, we dove deep into the Fertilizer industry and OCI. Conor shares how he goes from zero to one on a new industry, tools and tips for researching an industry, and why he chose OCI. If you liked Conor's thoughts, give him a follow on Twitter @ValueSituations Finally, a big thanks to the following sponsors for making the podcast a reality.
