    Investing 1O1 with Stephen McKeon
    This episode starts with the time value of money and quickly becomes an exploration of the time value of everything. As Professor Stephen McKeon takes us from his past working at a winery, to starting a drone company, and always choosing a happy versus wealthy life, the episode bounces between balances sheets and the purpose of life--and how the basics of all those scary words like stocks, bonds, and annuities aren’t so scary. McKeon uses some wonderful examples to illustrate the concept of investing, including how to invest in outer space asteroid mining, judging a company by how risky the CEO is (hint: see if the CEO has pilot’s license), and of course, cryptocurrencies--something that keeps getting him in the news constantly. As always, host Troy Campbell and editor Alec Cowan drop in some additional research and stories. The episode grows in complexity and subject matter as it progresses, but everything is always sewn together by the simple concept that a dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow.

    Finance 1O1 with Al Sheen
    The episode begins with a metaphor: “Finance is a grocery store.” The financial system brings things together for convenience, but just like a grocery store, there are good and rotten deals. UO professor of finance Al Sheen also brings his "modern Socrates teaching method" to the podcast and throws host Troy Campbell off by asking a few Socratic questions. Sheen also shares how his time on Wall Street eventually led him to the classroom. Editor Alec Cowan dips in with some practical advice about "building a financial trampoline versus financial net."

    Negotiations 1O1 with David Wagner
    From sales, to date night, to politics--we are always negotiating. In this inaugural episode, UO professor of management David Wagner explains how this actually can be a great thing. Negotiations, he explains, are often about problem solving and discovery. We then dive into his negotiations class, which visits Starbucks and Chipotle as well as explores business hypotheticals and hardball tactics. Podcast editor Alec Cowan comes to the rescue to perform some vocabulary duty, explaining "3D negotiation." And host Troy Campbell brings in some psychology. Prepare for an episode full of charm, hope, and education as we kick off Business 1O1. We promise you’ll leave the podcast rushing to "source interests" in all your relationships, and you'll see immediately how when we understand the 1O1 of anything, we can better at everything!
