Podcast/book recommendations?
Hi everyone,

I apologize if this is against the rules. If it is, please remove it. I recently accepted a job in commercial banking. I'm hoping to get on with the CRE team after training. I was curious as to what podcasts or books you guys would recommend for me in my situation? I don't really know of anything specific I'd want to learn. Just a general overview of the industry, trends to watch for, etc. Thanks so much!
