Patrick O'Shaughnessy: evaluation

Transcript context

…We have a very, very special guest—an episode we've been looking forward to doing—all of us—for a long time. We have Patrick O’Shaughnessy, CEO of O’Shaughnessy Asset Management, and also the host of the Invest Like The Best podcast—one of our favorite shows here at Acquired. So excited to have him on. Patrick is a master interviewer (as we all know). He gets these amazing guests, talks all about their businesses and their stories. Other than the old episode you did with your dad, your audience didn't get to hear about you. We want to hear about your business. What is this O’Shaughnessy Asset Management thing? How did you come into this? You're a philosophy major, now you're running a quant fund. You have a venture fund. You've built this amazing podcast empire. We're going to dive all into it. Welcome, Patrick. Thank you guys so much for having me. I'm always hesitant to do any of these because I'm scared of boring people with the same stories, but there's a mutual admiration society here. Of all the podcasts I listen to, yours is the most regular show. It's an honor to be here. Thank you for having me. Thanks for joining us. Before we dive in, if you love Acquired and you want to hone your own craft of company building, you should join the Acquired community of Limited Partners. You’ll get access to the LP show where we dive deeper into the fundamentals of company building and investing, in addition to our LP monthly calls where we talk with all of you directly. And of course, our Book Club and Zoom calls with the authors. If you aren’t already an LP, you can click the link in the show notes or go to acquired.fm/lp. All new listeners get a 7-day free trial.…
