“The Trump Derangement Syndrome that Kai can’t help himself showing is a distraction. I had been a listener for years. Can’t we just talk markets and business, please?”

“It was such a nice experience to listen to Weekend Marketplace. I’d come to expect the stories that were more in-depth than might have otherwise been on its multiple weekday shows. I understand that APM needed to make changes but it’s still unfortunate.”

“First of all, how about cleaning up this review section?? Marketplace Weekend is NOT Marketplace Money and that doesn't make it better or worse just DIFFERENT! So how about removing 10-year-old reviews of SOME OTHER SHOW.
What this IS is a great extension of the Marketplace brand. It's a...”Read full review »

“During the Tess Vigeland Era this show was a crown jewel in the NPR podcasting crown. Now it's an information-free whine fest. Most of the personal finance-realted stories are people nattering on about their college debt, sad lives and how The Man is keeping them down. NPR needs a good...”Read full review »

“I love Marketplace so I subscribes to the Weekend podcast and gagged when I got to the quiz. You do know your audience does not have patience for questions that can be found in a teen magazine, right? Do we really want to kniw what some athlete most regrets of his lifetime's purchases? Really?”Read full review »

“After 5 years listening faithfully to this podcast I’m done. I haven’t been able to finish a podcast in months because the stories are so boring and playing on emotions. I’ll check back every few months to see if it goes back to it’s old personal finance format - until then - unsubscribed.”
