“Episode 4 of the John Macafee story will not play for me nor can I download it. So wondering if that file is corrupt. All the other episodes work fine for me and were very interesting.”

“The host seems to have a lot of experience, but her voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard. Twangy and almost with a lisp, it’s distracting to the story. She can’t help her voice, it is what it is, but hosting a podcast may not be the best use of her talents.”

“I love this podcast series. Such great stories and insights about Amazon. For the record, I’m a big fan and happy customer of Amazon. I also am a fan of Jeff Bezos. We may not like some of his approach but he and the Amazon team literally invented cloud computing, and I don’t think they get as...”Read full review »

“While the Amazon season provides interesting insight into Jeff Bezos’s hand in Amazon’s rise to extreme market domination at all costs, it lacks in several aspects. I was quite surprised the podcast makes no mention of the antitrust litigation (previous and pending) against Amazon’s marketplace....”Read full review »

“The compelling initial revelations of the extent of Amazon’s ruthless attitude towards the people whose unacknowledged phenomenal hard work made it all succeed just trickles off into trite, repetitive cliches about what a selfish guy Bezos is. Should have carried that initial compelling approach...”Read full review »

“Listening to season one and I don’t understand why she hates Adam so much. I don’t know the guy maybe I should hate him too but she never gives me reasons. She just talks about what a jerk he is… but not obvious things. “Oh he said the right things but didn’t mean it” how does she know? Seems...”Read full review »

“I listened to the entire series on TikTok; fantastic reporting. I was expecting lob sided reporting since it’s a Chinese company being reported by American media, but I will say, it is more or less balanced and fair. Quite informative too, good job Shelly Banjo, Shawn Wen and the team at BBG 👍🏼”
