EP#274 LIFE IN THE PITS with Brad Schaeffer, The Final Cut Premiere
Episode 274
Wednesday, 5 November, 2025
Step inside the legendary exchange floors of Chicago and New York through the eyes of author and former trader Brad Schaeffer. In this riveting conversation with Tom Dutta, Brad relives his journey from a young artist with a knack for numbers to a seasoned trader in one of the most cut-throat environments ever known. His book Life in the Pits is both memoir and mirror, a tribute to an era when markets were moved by shouts and heartbeats, not algorithms. But it's also a reflection on life's real markets: risk, loss, redemption, and meaning. Tom and Brad discuss how grief and discipline intertwine, how the instincts that drive us in competition can also teach compassion, and why stories of the past still inform how we lead today. An essential listen for anyone drawn to finance, psychology, or the art of staying grounded when the world starts shouting. 🎙️ Host: Tom Dutta, Executive Producer of The Quiet Warrior Show📖 Guest: Brad Schaeffer, Author, Trader, Musician #QuietWarriorShow #LifeInThePits #BradSchaeffer #Finance #Leadership #Resilience #Courage #Storytelling #Podcast #FinalCut #Premiere #HeroJourney #Trading #HumanSpirit
