Time well spent…
In a business, and world for that matter, where every second is incredibly valuable listening to this podcast is time well spent. Smart, funny, informative, educational, and relevant.
Three Stooges
Josh, Duncan, and Michael hilariously talk about the market and pop culture with their guests. No question this is the best and most entertaining podcast out today. Doesn’t matter if you’ve got a dollar or $100 million… This is a must listen.
Best Pod This Side of the Hudson
Finance Bob Vila (legend) and Vin Diesel’s long lost Long Island brother discuss a grab bag of topical finance issue. A mix of Long Island chop shop speak and CNBC professionalism make for interest takes you won’t find anywhere else. Just make sure to not cross the real kingpin, Duncan. Or his hive of rabid fans will dismantle you faster than Cathy Wood can say deep value. 10/10 would recommend to anyone
Dope
A bunch of middle aged white fellas in flat bill ball caps listening to old school hip hop (They occasionally talk about the stock market).
Only Podcast where you learn & laugh hysterically at the same time
So much effort put j to this quality show. Really appreciate it! Podcast is a must listen Friday mornings, YouTube later when it’s released to re-live the laughs!
Great Podcast! Great Job!
Enjoy listening to this living room podcast format. Not too fast and not too slow. Funny, relaxed and very informative. I learn a lot about finances, stocks, shows, movies, burgers, shoju and sometimes some stock market history. Also love Animal spirits - Ben and Michael. Also can’t wait for the Mafia book.
Where finance is funny 😊
There is no other finance podcast out there that I look forward to for comedy. DTJB and Batnick keep it lively and funny at all times. Part of my Friday morning routine every week!
Mad Props for The Compound
Great show. As entertaining as it is informational. Very topical and relevant content. Love the guests they bring on to cover different themes. I’m a professional in the business and this is by far my best time spent on financial media. A very welcome change to the nonsense that is typically on daytime business television. Keep it up fellas. Love the program and I will keep looking for the different things you’re promoting and participating in.
Relevant, Practical, Hilarious
This podcast is one of my “go to’s” each week to hear insights from Josh, Michael and guests that are anything but mainstream. I love the info, the opinions, the banter, the well-informed arguments, the humor, the favorites and even (especially!) the NY accents (coming from a Bostonian)! These guys are truly gifted communicators and saavy wealth managers, complemented by many talented friends joining each week. As a wealth manager, I appreciate the different takes! I highly recommend this podcast!
Entertaining and informative
Highly entertaining and very informative. What more could you ask for?
One Stop Shopping
If you want an entertaining and highly knowledgeable podcast this is it. Josh, Michael, Duncan and their castmates distill the week brilliantly into one podcast that makes you laugh uncontrollably while getting a handle on the markets, current happenings, what movies to watch, and even where to find the best burgers! Super Smart and unassuming, you will come away happier, more connected and aware of your world. So glad to have the opportunity to listen. Thanks Guys!
Hug a Yankee today
I am a poor schmuck in Texas that will inherit some investable money in a few years. I know nothing about investing which is why I started listening to you (I first heard Josh on the Big Technology podcast). Aside from the money, Josh and the other NYers are entertaining, and fit every stereotype about NY that has ever been in movies or television. I keep pinching myself when I hear humans actually talking that way. That said, you all build trust, and I would rather lose my fortune taking your advice than from any other starched MBA stiff in a high rise. Come to Texas sometime for some good barbecue.
The Pardon my Take of Finance
Amazing podcast with great insights and better personalities. The pardon my take of finance
The best
Josh and Michael are the best in the biz! If you have any interest in market or the business of advice it’s a must listen.
Goes great with ADHD meds
I’m way too scatterbrained to pay attention to most financial podcasts. Luckily Michael starts cursing people out if a topic gets discussed for more than a few seconds too long. P.S. Josh please bring back the financial history bedtime stories!
Duncan’s weekly masterpiece
Like Pavlov’s dog, when Duncan drops the beat and Josh blasts the air horn to start the show I know my Friday night commute home will be entertaining and an escape after treating patients all day and before getting home to put the toddler to bed. Solid podcast with solid people.
A real review
The most informative finance podcast posted on Fridays, by 2 guys from New York, who are named Josh and Mike. Batcave for life.
Great Financial Podcast
The best weekly financial podcast out there. Josh and Mike keep it real with a bunch of their friends talking about the most important stuff of the week.
Josh the GOAT
Josh is one of the best financial minds in current times. His opinions on the market and current events are always extremely informative.
Great hosts, great guests, great content.
Keep up the good work. I never miss an episode. 🤙
Best podcast available
Chart On. Josh, Michael and Ben are literally the best at covering finance. They take a mundane topic and make it funny, exciting and cool. Thanks. Chart Off.
Worth your time
Every week, Josh and Michael host fascinating people who are total studs in their respective fields (usually involving some aspect of the financial/investing world). It’s like being invited to eavesdrop on an excellent dinner party, where interesting guests are interviewed by Fozzie Bear and Nosferatu. Don’t be put off by the inexplicable pre-show antics you hear at the start of the podcast. They bring the heat. You’ll laugh while you learn something. A+
Totally Tubular podcast Doggy
Groovy intro. The theme beat is hard body. Good guests. Great guests.
Fantastic!
Been following Downtown Josh Brown for years. His twitter-game was envious; still sad that he left. But its great to get his hot-takes and commentary on the market every week. These guys are extremely genuine and really do want to help people. I always recommend my friends to listen whenever they want a place to start with investing.
Some of the best to ever do it.
One of the most informative and digestible shows in all of financial media. Smart people with knowledgeable perspectives and good hearts. Highly recommend.
Awesome show
Entertaining, informative and Josh/Michael’s banter is not be be missed when they get going.
great show i recomend to everyone
This one always have interesting podcast, never a dull moment it's part of my friday go tos and it cheers me up no matter how bad the markets are or my day is going.
Live Josh and the guests are amazing
This show is a blast and I learn a lot
I’m confused
I don’t understand why The Compound & Friends is a podcast but not the regular Compound with Josh & Michael. I’d like to be able to listen to The Compound instead of going on YouTube. What’s the deal???
