My wife calls them my best friends

Animal Spirits has grown into one of my favorite podcasts. I appreciate the balanced, non-exaggerated look at the market along with genuine and honest reflections on l family and life. Not to mention the best movie reviews out there. I’m literally watching severance because of Animal Spirits. I always talk about them to my wife and now she calls them my best friends. As a mid-30s male I am sure I am not alone in that sentiment.

No time wasted

Very informative show done by people who love this stuff. Just like the rest of us that listen to them. Having one person on the East Coast and the other in the Midwest, you’re able to relate to every day life across the entire country. Your takes on movies, books, and opinions are also informative. Short, sweet, and the point. You are definitely not wasting your time listening to this podcast. Time well spend. Definitely worth listening to.

The best finance podcast, hands down

I’ve learned more from these guys than anyone else in 16 years in financial services. They just get it. Informative, funny and thoughtful.

Great reviews

They have some good finance chats but I stick around for the movies and tv show recommendations.

Fed Governor and crypto bro face off

Ben and Michael are great, even though Ben works for the Fed and Michael knows who Satoshi is.

Informative and Hilarious

The hosts manage to give great information, giving technical ideas but keeping it listenable, and very funny at the same time with personal anecdotes and observations. They don’t act like they know everything, though they are clearly very smart, and are so excited to bring up new ideas and people from the field to share their ideas and products.

Winning

After listening for more than a year, I still feel that surge of excitement when a new pod is posted!

Great Pod!

Such an awesome pod. I love Michael’s gratuitous use of The Princess Bride to illustrate investing. 5 star.

Can get redundant but solid podcast

I enjoy the chemistry from the pair. Hope they mix up the content more, most shows are about housing, fed, inflation, or alternative investments.

Fun and informative

These guys are fun to listen to, give you something to think about and have good guests (Prince, Lindzon). Lindzon was awesome. Even when they are BSing, their dynamic is fun to just listen to.

Love(d) the show, but…

… too much crypto. Used to listen to shows in their entirety, but if crypto convo lingers, I move on to other podcasts.

Enough with the Crypto

Guys- as a long time follower, hard to hear you spend the majority of time on crypto and NFTs- yawn

Unmatched!

A true unicorn - this fast-paced paced, intelligent and thought provoking podcast rises far above anything I’ve subscribed to in the past 10+ years, from a listener who normally has over 25 finance titles active in my queue. The innovative format is a much needed breath of fresh air in the space. Kudos!!
