So good!
These guys really have the pulse of the market. But what makes them the best is the way the way they zero in to the heart of the matter.

Favorite finance pod
Josh salt of the earth brown is the best

Best Podcast, Only One I Catch Every Single Episode Of
Not only is it my favorite investment podcast but it’s my favorite all genre podcast. Make no mistake; Josh Brown is Salt of the Earth in the streets but a freak in the spreadsheets. 10 Stars.

Salt of the Earth
Josh Brown please revisit “Salt of the Earth” definition. Proud Union Longshoreman for 40 plus years here. On my whiteboard at work: ‘Work. Save. Invest.’ When I can wrestle the remote from fellow workers at breaks and lunch - I will flip on CNBC. When you are on I say ‘Listen up Downtown Josh Brown is talking!’ ‘This guy is the Salt of the Earth.’ Meaning - a very good and honest person, down to earth, unpretentious. I never miss an episode of “The Compound and Friends” podcast. I highly recommend it to any and all who want to learn and laugh to do the same. Six stars if I could. I hope you take this as a compliment - I have no doubt you would hold up your end down on the docks.

Unique investing podcast
This is worth listening to weekly. I enjoy the occasional humor and pop culture references. They bring in some great guests and have interesting discussions about the market and economy. Unfortunately, Batnick is usually loud and obnoxious. He regularly interrupts people and can be rude. I deducted 1 star because of Batnick. Lastly, I’m not a fan of their What Are Your Thoughts? episodes.

The Best!
6th best investing podast? I'm going long on that ranking, goin' to Number 1, baby!

One of the best good quality financial pods
Really love these guys. Great episodes always and good list of guests. Learned a lot.

Fantastically entertaining financial podcast
Never thought a financial podcast could be entertaining, these guys pulled it off. Informative and fun.

TCAF PDCAST
TCAF is my favorite investing podcast. Josh & Michael, keep up the excellent work. From a retired Wharton MBA in Finance, raised in Queens, but living in Texas for the last 45 years, and fully focused on investing for the last 8 years.

Love this show
I’ll start with a couple little issues. 1. Josh hates Twitter/Elon Musk and finds a way to bash them almost every episode 2. They spend too much time talking about restaurants in NYC. No one cares that you think that restaurant on 5th avenue is better than the one in Brooklyn Apart from these two minor annoyances, this is the best finance podcast in the business. Always worth your time. As a fellow bald, Michael is the man.

Outstanding Podcast!
Another great episode with Josh and Michael!

These guys are great.
I feel like I’m back on the trading floor listening to this podcast. They tell it like it is and I enjoy their sense of humor as well.

League Of Their Own
These guys are truly in a league of their own. Between the banter, guests, and current market discussions, you won’t find a better business and investing podcast out there.

Great show
Fun listen with good chemistry between the hosts and guests

Very informative and entertaining
Love these guys! They are really entertaining and provide excellent financial content on the markets. They also dive into market analysis and why the markets are moving the way they are, while being hilarious at the same time.

Indeed your Best one !
Another great episode with Michael Cemaleast!

My weekly Favorite
Listen every week while on my run. Pointed questions, excellent banter, learn a ton, and openly laugh multiple times per show. An instant classical was Michael’s “should I be excited, or should I sell” when opening the discussion on investing in China with Michael Cembalest. I stopped and replayed this section of the show three times, causing me to uncontrollable laugh out loud each time. Major Bonus: ending the show with Favorites. Keep on bringing it, my brothers and sisters at The Compound. And I hope the team realizes the meaningful joy and knowledge they are delivering to the masses. Be Well, Larry from Ojai, CA

Absolutely fabulous!
A tour de force!… engaging, entertaining, educational… best podcast! Thanks Josh, Michael & Team Steve Z

You guys rock
You guys rock but Ives episode is a tough listen. Will the last guy in boutique Sell side research please turn out the lights…

RWM podcasts rock
I listen to The Compound and Friends, Ask the Compound, and Animal Spirits. RWM takes a lot of my podcast bandwidth. Interesting market commentary, even for someone who is mostly indexed with retirement accounts 100% in Target Date funds.

Entertaining Financial Podcast!!
Been listening to various financial podcast over the past couple of months and this one is a great combination of being informative and entertaining. Also have great guest speakers the show.

Who has more fun?
It’s a treat to listen to people who have so much info to share while laughing and enjoying themselves and their audience. I look forward to every episode. Pro tip: listen to the pod and THEN watch it on YouTube. Great job. Love the show. No, this is not your mom. 😂

Sam Ro
Great episode! I subscribed to Sam’s email and it is so insightful! Thanks.

Most entertaining podcast
For me this is the most informative and entertaining financial and borderline pop culture podcast available. Been listening since the beginning and show just keeps getting better. Do yourself a favor and subscribe!

I really hate it
This podcast is so good, entertaining and educational I prioritize it over other listening (like other podcasts, and audible books). Love it. Keep up the good work.

Consistently great
I’ve listened for a long time. Always impressed by the breadth of the knowledge, depth of thought and their humility. This show serves as a resource to me and my practice as a financial advisor. Many thanks to the hard work of everyone on the show. Sincerely…thank you.

Highlight of my week
Listening to the Compound and friends is one of the highlights of my week! Educational and hilarious!

Simply excellent
Josh and Micheal provide an unbiased long term view of the market. Are well spoken and ask informed questions of their guests. Their guests include a variety of opinions and view points (not always a bill or bear case). Josh and Micheal press in the basis of these views in a professional tone - conceding nobody really knows the markets future. I prefer Thursdays show to Tuesdays and rarely miss listening to a Thursday show!
