Update 2023 I switched to listening to The Tape, Surveillance, the podcast show has gotten too macro. More for policy matters, the State Department (interviews with Admirals), and other issues above my interest. I look forward to this podcast, and I feel it is the best free American podcast that...Read full review »

Great content and Tom Keane is a unique voice in finance and investing. But the ads are tough to wade through. The new spinoff show, “Single Best Idea,” is about 90 seconds of content sandwiched by 7+ minutes of ads.

I used to listen to the Surveillance podcast daily but since transferring to Youtube it’s become pretty much unlistenable to : full of commercials and Tom Keane waffle. The intelligent discourse between Jonathan Ferro and Lisa Abromowicz and their invited guests is sadly missed.

Please can the hosts drop all the sports and car talk?? Let them get a show on Sirius if they want to guys gossiping and chattering like housewives. If you want just insightful financial news that is serious and informative. This ain’t the show for you. If you like jock talk it is.

Missing Lisa and Jon. Bring them back!
Cardiffjen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/20/24
This was a good show when they stuck to finance and the markets. Now they change the format where we lose the good hosts (Jon and Lisa) and get Tom’s blathering. And Lisa Mateo reading headlines out of the WSJ—really? The new “mini pod” format just means more commercials. Can I have my old...Read full review »

Bloomberg- what are you doing? I got 4 mini surveillance yesterday, 3 shows today. How about 1 normal show a day so I’m not fumbling around trying to catch all the mini shows. Also, where is Jonathan and Lisa? Why do I have to listen to just TK droning on about guest’s undergraduate degrees from...Read full review »

What happened to Jonathan and Lisa? Is this a new format? Bloomberg clearly doesn’t want us to listen to this podcast anymore. Serving up blowhard Keene and marionette Sweeney leaves this former must have show now unlistenable.

Information excellent, but host, terrible.
Gagr111 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/25/24
I’ve been listening to this show for YEARS and the recent change has made the show much worse. Previously, they would simulcast on both TV and radio for most of the show. This worked in a couple of ways. The team with Jon Ferro, Lisa Abramowicz was second to none. With TK’s encyclopedic...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to this show for a bit now. Jon Ferro’s reporting/style hadn’t struck me as particularly harsh before. But when he interviewed acting Labor Secretary Julie Su on 12/8/23, he went *after* her about why some glitch led to BLS stats having been delayed that day on the BLS...Read full review »
Sunshine on my shoulders... via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/10/23
Overall the podcast provides a good condensed set of interviews on the day’s market and economic trends. Tom Keene is a good interviewer, but his frequent throat clearing, coughing, and sniffling are distracting. It’s not a one time cold. This happens all the time! Get rid of the annoying PGIM...Read full review »

I enjoy this podcast and listen regularly, 3-4 times a week. Overall, it’s very good. The theme music they play between segments is too loud and very annoying, since I typically listen with earbuds. The only other complaint is Tom’s fawning over Rep. French Hill who they let spew highly...Read full review »

Can Tom PLEASE STOP sniffing, snorting, coughing and generally clearing his mucous into the microphone while others are talking? It’s very distracting and off-putting. Doesn’t he have a mute button?

Why does the audio feel like it is recorded in the outdoors with some kind of wind noise in the background?
Phxchn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/09/23
It’s suppose to be a worldwide podcast but it is geared toward New York City- weather, traffic, sports - which means nothing to me. 90 percent of the news by Micheal Barr has an anti -Trump story. One podcaster sounds like Kamala Harris in which she talks for 5 minutes and says nothing. Another...Read full review »

LOVE the show, have been a dedicated daily listener for years. PLEASE rotate the ads!!! You’re killing me with the same repetitive ads over and over and over within each episode and identical from day to day. If you must play ads, please, please at least rotate between different ones. Thanks!

This show is great, love the balance that struck with finance, economics, and current events. True news. I don’t know s** about baseball but I love the sports banter, humanizes the guest rather than just some suit. Go pats go ducks.
SneakyGab via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/16/22
good show and i listen to each day. hosts have a tough job to stay fresh and engaging. repetitive commercials puts a damper on the podcast experience.
Dr Rico3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/07/22
Low rating is due to the stupid number of ads the show has now. Though if the ads cut into the dead space filled with tedious sports banter, I’ll take more ads. Tom K, you know we can fast forward through them right? Traditionally Bloomberg pods launch softballs to guests. But John Ferro has...Read full review »

Surveillance should be is a great podcast. But Jon F is rude to many guests, seems to think ok to always have last (nasty) word, and since moving to outsourcing hosting full of ads.
Egalata via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/24/22
From my opinion this is the best podcast for financial matters
BCMusicLover via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/08/22
Not so like the liberal tilt that TK has. From Marty W. to those accusing the oil companies of misdeeds. Please continue to get Yes or No answers to questions. Don’t let them not answer and just read from their bullet points. Thanks Jon. Oh! And thanks for not trying to make people think you are...Read full review »

I generally like the show and listen everyday. But recently it’s become more and more apparent that Jon Faro has a chip on his shoulder against the Biden Administration. Last year unfortunately his father passed away and he wasn’t able to travel home to the UK due to COVID restrictions. I do...Read full review »

They don’t explain things well.

The last several days the daily release hasn’t happened? What’s going on? I enjoy and look forward to listening every day

I try to listen to this podcast daily. I wish the hosts would interrupt the guests less often or encourage them to go deeper on some of their points.
AnotherAndrew via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/21
The advertisements have ruined this podcast. Otherwise the content is good.
Jedermann 55 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/03/21
As an investor I need to remove personal perspective and emotion from my response to public policy just as a farmer must dismiss his frustrations with the weather. Jon Ferro is very distracting with his incessant point-scoring against Biden admin officials. I can get that anywhere. Keene and...Read full review »

Good summary of the highlights of the morning show

Jon is is going after these administration officials much harder than Trump admin. Fascinating. Getting harder to listen for that reason.

Speculating on the speculators? Need I say more?
ajonanon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/21
I find Bloomberg surveillance to be very useful, because many of their guests have insightful comments about the markets. However, the childish bickering among the hosts sometimes gets annoying.
Artie E. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/06/21
This is one podcast that I do not miss. Fantastic, smart, funny hosts and great guests. Love the banter ! Put this on your “must listen everyday” list.

Low production value. You can constantly hear keyboards typing or incredibly annoying static. Please fire your production team.

The answer seems to be 4 60 second ads per podcast.
Pickle864 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/16/21
I could stomach through the Australian jokes about “hand” football knowing his audience doesn’t have a clue there’s Australian Football League because I liked the experts. Once the podcast revealed itself as a pro war podcast, I couldn’t stomach it anymore. There’s much better Financial podcasts...Read full review »
