“This podcast used to be great but now it’s neglected.
New episodes are rare and either old material reposted or sourced from other podcasts.
Listen to the old episodes, but don’t hold your breath for good new material.

“I’ve learned a few good things from this podcast. But I’ve started to cringe when I see a new episode drop. There is too much “I” and “me” that makes it feel self centered. Maybe it’s time for me to move on anyway.”

Few episodes when there is something meaningful to say rather than others’ as many as possible to be sure advertisers are happy.
Also appreciated the format which doesn’t constantly...”Read full review »

“Mad Fientist is awesome. He interviews some of the best in personal finance. He is super chill and open minded. He is a little dry and can be monotone, but that’s just his style. Other podcasts are more eccentric than this one. Overall, it has great info and great guests featured.”

“What a great series of interviews by people who have “won the game”, including the interviewer himself. If you were to only just follow a fraction of the advice given here by these successful people, the majority of us should be able live better lives.”
