Great content, but don’t appreciate condescension
I’m a millennial working towards getting out of student debt and building up my EF. I’m excited to put Maggie and Mike’s strategies for FIRE to good use in another year or two, once I can shift my focus to building wealth. Most of their content is actionable and relevant to my life. I did want to write a review specifically to bring attention to their dynamic - which is enjoyable 80 percent of the time. But I don’t enjoy Mike’s condescension towards Maggie. It’s usually expressing annoyance at her long winded explanations or “rambling”, but I think this is something I really enjoy about Maggie. It’s a personality trait unique to her, and I don’t love hearing Mike make fun of her or express impatience about it. This happens often and really kills the vibe. He tends to talk over her, and it’s frustrating to hear. Sometimes I wish it was Maggie hosting with a totally different person. Otherwise, excellent show.
