Episode description

You may know this week's guest as a Kansas City Chief and sometime Royals fan on Twitter, but he has more than one connection to Kansas City. Jay Soloff (@jsoloff), an options volatility analyst, former CBOE market maker, pirate, and seller of uncapped forward variance swaps, joins us this week to discuss covering calls and charting curves.

Jay brings an exciting twist to this episode and talks about options education and where to find the premium, is the VIX broken (did we create a monster? + curve doodles), retail vs. investing (an exclusive look into what retail investors are getting wrong), and more. Plus, Jay gets put into the hot seat, where he provides his take on how The Fed is doing — SEND IT!
