About Us: The daily pop-biz news show making today’s top stories your business. Formerly known as Robinhood Snacks, The Best One Yet is hosted by Jack Crivici-Kramer & Nick Martell.




Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.


Each weekday, Nick Martell and Jack Crivici-Kramer deliver The Best One Yet, a concise and cleverly packaged look at the business world. This twenty-minute podcast from Nick & Jack Studios distills the day's essential financial and corporate news into three key stories, offering analysis that’s both insightful and surprisingly digestible. The tone is upbeat and designed to cut through the noise, providing listeners with a shot of context and conversation starters that feel more like a chat with well-informed friends than a dry news report. It’s the kind of briefing you can absorb during your morning routine, leaving you feeling informed and ready for the day ahead rather than overwhelmed. While the format is focused on business and news, the approach is broadly appealing, unpacking complex market moves, tech innovations, and consumer trends with clarity and a touch of wit. Having previously created “Snacks Daily,” the hosts continue their independent podcast with the same energy, now fully steering their own ship. For anyone seeking a efficient, engaging way to stay current without getting bogged down, this podcast consistently aims to be the best part of your daily information diet.
