I feel like this is different from other FIRE podcasts because it doesn’t focus on the mechanics of FI (which have been covered many times in other places), but on Doug and Carl’s personal reflections on FI and post-FI. It feels like a bunch of friends sitting around and chatting. Doug and Carl...Read full review »

I have listened to several FI podcasts for several years now. This one is not worth your time. 20 minutes into a QnA episode and not 1 discussed. Plus the repeated use of foul language is offensive and unnecessary. So I recommend not spending your time on this one. There are many other more...Read full review »

Still needs a script. Try products before you discuss them. Diana, was, like, you know, interesting, right.

Love it. Hosts clearly have a great connection. They have meaningful conversations and bring on quality guests. Sorry.. but no one cares about your kids in the car, keep the casual banter and nsfw jokes.

Been listening for several years now! Always look forward to each episode and guests that come on the show. Hopefully all the advice helps when I retire and hit my FI number. Cheers Joel

I can’t remember the last time a podcast made me laugh out loud. These guys do it often. Yes, I’m a guy. Yes, I’m prone to adolescent humor as well, so I’m biased. I followed Doug over from the Doug show having been introduced on Niche Pursuits. I know I’d heard of FIRE, but feel like I really...Read full review »

Warning : not safe to listen to with kids in the car. Had a lot of potential, but I don’t understand why they needlessly swear all the time. What are they trying to gain from it? It seems they are aiming for a niche segment, which just ain’t for me. Unsubscribe.

I listen during times I’m in the car running errands and sometimes I’m with kids and there’s so much vulgar language I had to shut it off. I’m sure there’s some great content here but there’s also lots of other FI podcasts to choose from with respectable language. Unfortunately, this isn’t fit...Read full review »

Enjoying the podcast from down under. Like the light chat with good information along the way.
Lofty Big Chopper via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/21/23
Highly recommend- I pretty much only listen to financial podcasts on my commute to and from work. This is such an easy show to listen to and it’s refreshing compared to some of the other shows I listen too! Happy to have it in my weekly lineup of podcasts! Not sure why some of the reviews are so...Read full review »

Really love Doug and Carls energy and banter. They make financial topics fun and love listening to their podcast! Keep up the great work guys!
Jane1980727 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/21/23
The podcast episode "Thoughts on Big Spending and Taylor Swift|MHFI 182". is a delightful and insightful podcast episode that challenges the conventional wisdom of strict budgeting. Doug and Carl's willingness to share their experiences and thoughts on spending memorable moments opens...Read full review »

I can’t believe I just found your podcast today. I appreciate the candid and straight forward discussions. That’s my kind of content!
CrisG1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/13/23
Just as the title says. Episodes are so slow and cover very little content compared to most FIRE podcasts. Lots of bad language including F word for no reason!
jay_east_bay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/04/23
Carl and Doug perfectly thread the line of entertainment and information. Highly recommended for anyone in the FIRE sphere, whether you’re already retired or just looking to dip your toes in the water.
Mungo Bean via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/23
Having listened to many of the usual FI podcasts, I look forward to Mile High FI the most. The banter is fun to listen to and their sense of humor is pretty close my own. Carl and Doug get a wide range of guests from within the FI community as well as others with great stories related to FI or...Read full review »

I discovered this podcast through the Mr. 1500 website. Carl and Doug have a great natural rapport! Very interesting content and their guests are always fantastic.

Finally, a FIRE podcast by rich tech bros.
wisconsincamp via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/03/23
I understand Lost Interest’s complaint. If you guys are really FI and just doing this for fun, hitting your guests up for money makes you sound hypocritical. Podcasts like this just don’t cost much to produce these days so it can’t be out of actual need. But it does raise an interesting topic...Read full review »

Love the podcast! I’ve been listening for a few years and it’s great, I even decided to donate to the Buy Me a Coffee so that they can keep the show ad free 🤞🏼The podcast is humorous and informative, like sitting around with friends and chatting.
Frances Eliot via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/06/23
If you follow the FI movement or are even somewhat interested in this topic, I think you will enjoy this podcast. It’s casual and fun but also packed with thoughtful information on a variety of topics - financial independence, health, happiness, travel and more. Keep up the great work!
tpfrom via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/06/23
Just tired of being asked to financially support the podcast.
BribBrib via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/23
This is one of my favorite podcasts to listen to. Doug and Carl work really well together and always keep it interesting. You never know where the conversation will go, from asparagus and mesh tank tops, to financial strategies and mindset. I really enjoy that they don’t hold back and sensor...Read full review »

I have become a big fan of Carl and Doug. They seem to resonate with me personally. I will look forward to meeting them in person someday. Their content is relevant and advice is thorough and well thought out. I highly recommend these guys. Their sense of humor is pretty good also!
Nitro Hiker via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/07/23
I'm a big fan of this show and have enjoyed listening to every episode from the beginning. The shows are a mix of light-hearted conversation and more serious discussion. I like the variety. You get to learn the hosts personalities and thoughts on a wide range of subjects, not just the typical...Read full review »

Really enjoy listening to Doug and Carl on the mile hi podcast. Wish more shows can be this entertaining and light spirited. Yes - it’s a FI show, but the topics are always(ish) thought out, clear and fun to listen to. It’s the first podcast I listen to when shows drop 2x week. Keep up the good...Read full review »

This is one of my favorite podcasts and to be honest I’m not sure why. I have nothing in common with the hosts (other than being financially minded) but I enjoy their banter, Doug’s sense of humor, and how much Carl loves his family. I feel like you never hear men talking up their wife and kids...Read full review »

Doug/Carl vous êtes au top merci
EricfromFrance via Apple Podcasts · France · 11/29/22
I have followed a variety of FI podcasts in the past. This is my new favorite. They have lots of great tips and I like the banter between the two hosts.
Mslorelle via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/17/22
They seem to be a nice bunch of guys. The swearing and especially the F bomb is unnecessary and makes podcast seem shallow. I wish I could give them a better review.
K2TF via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/20/22
I really love this podcast for Adults further into the Full Lifestyle of Financial Independence.
M-2020 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/22
I love hearing the real talk of Financial Independence that you might not hear from other podcasts.
thulliv via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/12/22
Started listening and heard the f bomb twice in 5 minutes. Had to turn it off. There is no explicit warning on the episodes so very disappointed in this.
Russnc93 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/27/22
This podcast is so insightful and I’ve enjoyed every episode I’ve listened to so far! Carl and Doug do such a great job of sharing their wisdom and I love how they also lead meaningful conversations with FI leaders who bring so much experience and actionable insight to the table, having already...Read full review »

I enjoy listening to these two and their guests. There conversations are authentic. Never super technical, but happy to hear about their FIRE experience. Ready to follow them to CampFI to make them my new best friends!

Nick’s podcast gave me a side hustle idea. Several years later it became full time passive income and then the business was sold. Thanks Nick!
Lorenzo-$$44 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/17/22
I really want to like this podcast. However, the unnecessary swearing is very annoying. Trying to be a clone of Money Mustache isn’t a good look.
MatthewPE via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/14/22
Love the laid back, natural style of this FI podcast. Just 2 guys hanging out in a basement having good convos and laughing along the way. A weekly go to.
CcharlieBucket via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/20/22
This podcast is just like sitting next to Carl and Doug in the backyard having a conversation. The topics are wide ranging from what car they drive to deeper topics like happiness. It’s always interesting to hear their perspectives, and once you learn their humor, it can be pretty funny. And yes,...Read full review »

I love this podcast for its easygoing vibe, amusing banter, and well-informed insights. It’s rare to find hosts as down-to-earth as Doug and Carl, who are as thoughtful as they are entertaining.
elisabethIN via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/22
As someone recently FIRE’d I’ve been enjoying binge listening to the guys chat post FI life, beers and the intricacies of bidets, a topic I never anticipated exploring. We’ll done gents

It was a refreshing and wonderful interview of Doug! Loved it!
Sara14110113 via Apple Podcasts · Pakistan · 03/17/22
This is my favorite podcast for Carl and Doug’s ability to commingle the intricacies of Asparagus pee, hoodies, farts, and financial Independence. Doug has a nice calming voice as well, and Carl knows how to wear a mesh tank like no one else. Thanks guys.
champagneschool via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/11/22
I love the funny side of Carl. He has a real good sense of humor. I am a fan of calmness of Doug’s voice. You guys really rock. Keep up the great work. RM
stfbjfho via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/02/22
A lot of FI content out there is written / hosted by folks that always agree with each other and have the same takes on everything. Not so with this one. I do enjoy the tangential banter the most though - it makes the podcast more accessible / relatable. One suggestion would be adding intro /...Read full review »

My favorite episode is the most recent one with trip of a lifestyle. Nice to get an update from them and they inspired me to want to live in Hawaii for a few months too.
