Fuh-nance done right.
Great podcast. Ben and Michael are fun together. I became interested in money and the market two years ago and was recommended this podcast. Glad I was. I’m now a buy-and-hold investor of this show. Despite Michael’s poor taste in movies, the show puts financial news and research within reach of us noobwhales.
Informative and Entertaining
Michael and Ben are fantastic! They know when to joke and when to be serious. I appreciate the show format and also their delivery of the content. There is a good balance of personal finance, investing, and everyday life stuff. I look forward to my Wednesday and Friday commute. Keep up the great work!
Must Listen for Finance Professionals
I recently graduated from college with a finance degree and this podcast is full of financial and investing knowledge. For beginners or experts, it is great content that will help anyone with their finances, investments, career, and life. They’re actually kind of funny and make some good jokes here and there. Movie recommendations are a nice ending as well. Keep up the great work!
Educational and entertaining
These guys are amazing, their back and forth on the show is a really entertaining way to start the day, and I learn a ton about money in the process. Listen if you want to learn, but also listen if you want to be entertained
Best Finance Pod Out There!
Michael and Ben do such a great job talking markets, investing, and finance trends! They make such a complex, often boring subject a joy to listen to! There is so much to learn from these guys!!
Favourite pod
You guys should do a live pod one day! I’ll make a weekend in NYC out of it
Great advice and an easy listen
After listening to this podcast for a year, I have took away great financial does and don’t and have also found some great movies to watch as well. This is an all around fantastic podcast and you will feel like you are good friends with them after listening for awhile. 10/10 recommend if you have any interest in finance, books, and movies.
Weekly reminder of my incompetence
I like to think of myself as a financially sound individual, but this podcast is a biweekly reminder of what I don’t know. Big ups to Adam and Ben for the constant knowledge bombs
F these guys
I am a Gen-X IT guy saving for retirement, and these weekly conversations are just a nice add to my list of Podcasts. It just hits all the spots I am looking for with recommendations, financial and not financial. The banter back and forth has an entertaining quality while they deliver some cold hard facts about the investing world. This podcast is on my “Must Listen” list of recommendations to anyone I speak with on investing.
Consistently good
A great listen every week.
Best Finance + Wealth Management Podcast
I cannot recommend this podcast enough. Whether you work in the industry, or have personal finance/investing questions. Michael and Ben are the best in the business. Don’t forget to read their blogs either.
Great Podcast
Always interesting. My favorite podcast at the moment. They have an interesting take on the market and keep it light and conversational. 5 stars
Best of the Best
Hand up, I listen to each ep a couple times. Many thanks Ben and Michael!
Educational and Entertaining
Michael and Ben bring common sense and humility to personal finance, current events and entertainment in this podcast. The breadth of information from the most basic concepts of personal finance to guests in more advanced fields of finance and investing is excellent. Their ability to present what they know and admit what they do not know/cannot be known is refreshing and often missing from other podcasts on finance and markets. Their chemistry as a New Yorker and Michigander is entertaining and it often times feels like I’m sitting with friends as I listen to the podcast. Cannot recommend highly enough!
Great podcast
Ben and Michael are the kind of guys that would be fun to go for beers with, surprising for people working in the Finance industry. They talk about a wide range of finance and economic topics, and add their spin and flavour on today’s topics. Target audience is probably 20s to 40s.
Funny, smart, and so educational
I’m really grateful for Michael and Ben’s content this year. As I’ve started to broaden my financial education, they have been my go-to for relevant content, current financial affairs, and sage advice. They also have great guests on their show. Everyone does a great job of explaining things in layman’s terms. Really appreciate their work.
Animal Spirits
Great, common sense discussions about finance and investing.
Very Good
Very good show. Seem like nice guys, but who knows. Appreciate the content.
Great Listen
Very bullish on this podcast, I always look forward to the movie/show reviews and sometimes the investment advice (financial advice is actually v good). The constant inside jokes are top tier, best on any podcast.
I’m rating because Michael asked me to
Excellent, informative content, with humor sprinkled in. I’m a weekly listener and never fail to walk away (listen away...?) without hearing something interesting. Keep it up.
Love these guys
This is my favorite financial podcast, if you had to classify it as such. It doesn’t take itself seriously like some other financial and investing podcasts but the hosts give their opinions and insight on trends in the world and the market. Their recommendations at the end of show are great too. Humorous and informative, I look forward to this podcast every week.
One of my favourite podcasts
This is my one of my favourite podcasts. Come for the information and analysis on markets and investing, stay for the outstanding banter. It’s great when you speed it up to 1.5.
Survey Says: Great Podcast
In a survey of several target audience members - well many of them had heard that this podcast exists- and think it’s swell
Love it
Michael and Ben give a lot of great insight and advice, but in a way that’s easily understandable - unlike many shows where the conversation can get incredibly technical. Smart, funny, and only once a week, so not podcast overload
