Ben, how many times do you say honestly in a day?
Finance + Fun
Been listening to Michael and Ben for well over a year now and the pod is always one of the highlights of my week. Great financial insight with just the right amount of technical knowledge accompanied by perfect anecdotes. Love hearing about their pop culture recommendations, definitely the perfect pod for anyone who wants their financial news delivered with some humour, a must listen for anyone who even remotely follows the market. #noobwhale
Useful takeaways!
Funny they push each others buttons. What a bromance. Good job of letting you know what is noise and what is real. If your questions are show worthy they will address them. What else is there to do but drive you to content when your stackin your future.

This is my favorite podcast
Enjoyable listen each week.
Top shelf podcast
Investing advice that’s actually entertaining, love the life lessons and recommendations each week. Not stock picking, just be wise and aware of what the market can do for (and against) you. Can’t recommend it enough from the beginning to savvy investor. Great job Michael and Ben! Excellent writers as well, check out both of their blogs and books.
Amusing Investing And Media Podcast
Interesting commentary on the markets, the entertainment industry, and other random topics. Batnick’s NYC roots and frequent interruptions of Carlson are evident throughout. Keep the light-hearted investing info interlaced with lively banter coming gentlemen, thanks.
Loving every episode!
A great podcast about investing, life, and why money is important. It’s my favorite podcast, and I don’t miss a single one. I also like the “Talk your Book” episodes, which lets some fund wonk pitch his fund. The only downside is, listening to them for so much means I read all their blog posts in their real voices.
Entertaining but needs more finance
Love the podcast, but 70% of the content is movie reviews
Love these clowns.
Hands down my favorite sports podcast..... wait
Great Finance Pod
The two hosts summarize recent finance articles and have great banter. If you work in Finance or are curious about the field, this is a must listen.
Michael and Ben are great
This is like hanging out with your two good friends who happen to be knowledgable about finance. Entertaining and insightful, but also relaxing to listen to. At the end of a long day there's no chance I'd be able to absorb content-dense material on finance, even an audiobook, but I can listen to these guys. They make it fun.
A fave podcast
Love this podcast, they cut out all the investment BS, cut to the chase. Great rapport. High speed, relevant. They switch topics without belaboring points which keeps it interesting. Intelligent, informative discussion. I’m writing this after the pod on structured notes... great stuff. Keep it up.
My Spirit Animals
I love how this podcast dodges small talk, but also squeezes meaning out of everyday topics. I’m a fan of the research and multiple subject tie-ins that guide this podcast. I’m also a fan of how Michael and Ben don’t mind putting their own financial lives out there occasionally. This balance of broader content and relatability keeps me coming back. Sometimes they topic hop like crazy madhatters. But my brain works in a similar way so I don’t mind following their train of thought. It usually connects to something far deeper than money or investing eventually. I’m going to get judgy hear and say I lost some respect when I found out one of them was a fan of Howard Stern. I suppose that happens in the world though. I’d still be willing to be friends with them.
Making Finance fun
Ben and Michael are a must listen podcast team. The finance data, trending topics and everything else discussed in between is extremely entertaining. Put it bluntly they make listening to finance fun! Keep up the great work!
Humorous and enlightening
Michael and Ben have great chemistry together and provide useful insight into a variety of finance/investing topics. At the same time, they add enough humour and interesting tangents to make it enjoyable to listen to. Don’t be a noobwhale - subscribe to Animal Spirits ASAP!
High quality banter
Show keeps getting better and better. Good balance of investment talk and relatable stuff so the casual investor can understand and enjoy. I enjoy the banter and jokes
Top financial podcast
Sharp informed and wry. Unmatched and essential.
Entertaining and Informative
Michael & Ben are hilarious and I really enjoy the rekindled segments. My only complaint is that the pod is a little short. I could do a full hour.
The podcast so nice, I listen twice.
No exaggeration. Not only the best finance podcast on iTunes but maybe the best podcast period. Thanks Michael and Ben!
My fave “finance” show
Great show. Sets the bar for entertaining discussions about investing topics.
The ultimate fin-bro show
Funny, highly informative, honest, quirky and personal! The Ben and Michael duo talk about complex and contemporary ideas in a way your best buddies would and always leaving you wanting more.
