Sometimes I watch Consuelo Mack's WealthTrack, her weekly half-hour show on PBS. She is a business journalist who gets some interesting interviews.

I don't watch it every week. I record it and then check the topic to see if I want to watch it.

In early July she interviewed Jeremy Grantham who thinks we are in a bubble of epic proportions and explains why he thinks that.

A couple of weeks ago, she interviewed Jason Zweig who writes a column for the WSJ with the same title as the book The Intelligent Investor written by Benjamin Graham, who is said to be the father of value investing. Zweig talks about Graham's influence.

This week's show is about emerging markets -- about which I know nothing and probably won't watch it.

Last week was about shareholders who choose individual stocks to buy and hold.

I like her show because it covers one topic, each show, half an hour, just a snapshot, nothing esoteric, nobody yells. It's a short show that gives the viewers a little something to think about.

If WealthTrack sounds interesting, you can go to wealthtrack.com or Google Consuelo Mack. You can find a list of past episodes and if any grab your attention, you can watch them on YouTube.

Just a thought.
