Hey reddogaustin, your last line is spot on: "Probably a good example of how the research required to part-own or “invest” in a company is an ongoing commitment."
We get the list for The Call the afternoon the day before so you get maybe 30 mins to research each stock assuming you don't know them well. I'd never looked at ID8, I didn't see any reference to the blockchain in my brief research but rolled with it when Kochie mentioned it.
I definitely try and mention if I haven't looked at a company closesly before though, I like people to know I am only speaking from a very brief look.
Hopefully you enjoyed the rest of the conversation though!
