I find all the episodes useful but especially the Lord John Lee interviews. Very insightful
Brodes- via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/17/24
Enjoy both the regular weekly podcast but a special mention goes to the Lee and the IC series for a great in depth conversation looking at smaller stocks in much more detail. The weekly podcast is good with a round up of market news along with company specific updates. I like their style -...Read full review »

Some great content but the sound quality is often awful, sometimes so bad that I cannot listen to it

Excellent content; poor mics.

Great podcast with Ben Rogoff. Very honest by Ben and very insightful. (And useful!) Well done Mary 5*

Good podcast, but was far better when the focus was more on company reviews
adeelmirza via Apple Podcasts · Switzerland · 04/03/22
Podcast is one of the best , if not the best personal finance / investment pod . Quality guests with insightful questions from the presenters .
stubiej via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/31/21
Used to be very good but the in last few months the articles are hit or miss. The sound quality can also be poor. This weeks with Simon Brewer was so bad gave up after 5 minutes.
Cupcakekatz via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/01/21
This podcast has become an absolute staple for me, with great guests and lots of interesting content. The new host, Mary, is fantastic and has a soothing voice. My only criticism is the sound quality can sometimes be a bit poor, but I’m sure this could be an easy fix

I’m a big fan of IC interviews podcast. Interesting questions and always good to hear from fund managers investing in specific sectors and geographies.

I really enjoyed the intelligent, informed and regular nature of the IC podcasts; such a shame they appear to have stopped without warning. Please bring back John, Phil, Algy & co talking sense about the market and individual stocks!
12-string Mikey via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/29/21
Loved listening to John and Phil. Algy Hall is also worth a listen to. Rest of the contributors are a bit loose but you put up with it for Phils insight

The Alpha podcast with Phil Oakley is excellent. Interesting and well-researched insights into companies. The ‘Not Your Normal Finance Show’ is, I’m afraid, for the most part, utter dross. Co-hosted by Meghan Boxall, who has an immature and irritating presenting style, very self-opinionated but...Read full review »

John is excellent, your co host on not your normal finance show isn’t up to scratch and has too many half- baked opinions - isn’t anywhere near the standard expected set by Phil Oakley. Don’t think I’ll listen much anymore
investor8273936/ via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/25/21
Have been listening to this podcast for a while and it’s normally good. Main presenter John Hughman is excellent but I can’t listen to Megan Boxall who comes across as very immature & uninformed on many topics. The ‘Streaming Wars’ episode was just embarrassingly bad. I have my own criticisms...Read full review »

I do enjoy listening to the pod, but John ain’t half a dinosaur!
Brail21 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/30/21
The alpha podcast is informed by Phil Oakley having done the hard work (of research).
Englishman in Switzerland via Apple Podcasts · Switzerland · 01/23/21
Very slow and one presenters doesn’t seem to pay attention. Had to play it at x2 speed to make it manageable! Magazine is significantly better or Aj Bell money & markers podcast.
Ben Stannard via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/17/21
Amazing. How can ic be seen as a serious podcast with a con man’s best buddy on - as if he has not done enough damage.
akid35 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/17/20
As an amateur investor I find the discussions between John and Phil fascinating, informative and entertaining. It has given me great insights into being a wiser investor. As host, John has a “chat in the pub” approach to hosting the show and Phil dissects financial performance data in a clear...Read full review »

Why would you have a politically motivated show biz type like Richard Curtis on to give advice about anything?
Billyfife via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/12/20
This podcast is definitely one of my best, especially because of the conversations that they have with regard to investing and economic factors affecting the decisions of investors. Being a novice myself, I’ve learnt quite a bit. I think a lot more can be done with the balancing of the volume of...Read full review »

Loving the new format. Highly recommended. Easy chat like two mates chewing the cud down the pub 🍻😀👍

Poor not up toUsual standards of podcast from IC
Whisky not Beer via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/16/20
This week’s podcast exemplifies the problems with the new format. The investment hour is now an hour and 15 mins! It starts with 43 mins of advertorials for investment platforms, including Megan asking nebulous questions about one that does not even exist yet. Then we get 10 mins of...Read full review »

How can you talk about the cost of brokers and barely mention trading 212? At the moment they don’t charge anything at all. Even their exchange rate is zero which is often a hidden cost of other platforms that costs more than their transaction fees.
lupin.ic via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/15/20
The old format of Companies & Markets Show, that felt like a couple of mates having a beer in a pub and talking about markets, was much more enjoyable to listen to and a lot more investor focussed. I have enjoyed the IC Interviews series though.
wilson L43 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/11/20
Is John’s new co-host Megan an intern? She can barely string a sentence together. In the recent podcast she said: ‘as a millennial, I don’t get gold’. Well, as a millennial, I do get gold. What’s more, she’s paid to “get it”. She wasn’t wrong though, she knew nothing. I used to look forward...Read full review »

I used to look forward to this podcast, it was like listening to wise engaging friends. It now drags along like daytime television.
Pedro the Cruel via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/24/20
OK
Very good podcast

Great podcast.....Other than one highly annoying commentator
Tristan2672 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/21/20
Hello, I’m a regular listener and love the content, John Hughman is an excellent presenter but I’m sorry to say I shall not be listening to Leonora Walters anymore. For someone in her position, she needs to have interview training. This constant monotone and say ‘Okay’ all the time after every...Read full review »

Leonara You say OKAAAY after every answer! The podcast content is excellent but this habit of yours distracts from it!
rm48il via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/26/20
OK
To the interviewer. Please, please, please stop saying “OK” after every answer. I don’t think you know that you’re doing it, but it’s rather irritating. OK? Thanks.
Bruno but chop via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/16/20
Insightful and easy to digest
Baunton via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/16/20
Better if just Phil Oakley though
10367765 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/10/20
Can we just have half an hour of John and Phil back please? All the other speakers (bar Michael Taylor) seem nervous and don’t offer any valuable insight.
Hengest Brett-Taylor via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/04/20
Look forward to it every week, insightful and very interesting.
ADGNP3 via Apple Podcasts · Denmark · 03/22/20
I love Phil Oakley presenting he has a very logical approach to investing. He comes across very well and always fully justify his opinions! It has led me to purchase the magazine on a regular basis - good job! NC
Conlon10 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/12/19
John Hughman is entertaining and Phil Oakley is interesting to listen to. I like the two of them together. The other presenters not so much, as they either talk as if they are on amphetamines (very fast), or have a speech impediment and can’t pronounce their “r”’s and keep saying “oooooooookay”....Read full review »

I enjoy this so much that come Thursday lunchtime I’m already looking forward to getting home and listening to the podcast. The addition of Phil Oakley to the Investors Chronicle team has been superb. He’s really Informative and I always enjoy his analysis of companies. Hearing the discussions...Read full review »

Some good stuff here but also a lot of dross. The presenters seem to want to be media luvvies (big egos) but frequently fail at the basics. It would be useful to have ex-professional investors or at least someone with a finance background involved. One of the presenters couldn’t even pronounce...Read full review »
