“One of the few offering concrete policy-driven left economic visions. Keep up the good work”

“The presenters have a definite PoV but they are open about it. It’s one I happen to agree with.
My issue with this podcast is how much Goldstein rants. He interrupts Hanauer regularly. I get that he’s the glib, more entertaining speaker and the team may feel it need that element. But he goes too...”Read full review »

“Just finished reading Democracy in Chains by Nancy Maclean of Duke University. The effort to “rein in” the federal government has been the fever dream of right wing activists for decades. The underlying philosophy is that poor people should work harder; basically it’s everyone for him or herself....”Read full review »

“It’s so amazing to enjoy listening to conversations about economics and at the same time learn so much. What’s more amazing is there are people out there doing so much to help others in such a meaningful way.”

“Seems like the hosts are very liberal and anti capitalism. I’m fine with a showing talking through that, but not advertising as a neutral show with really subtle undertones of socialism.”

“Sad to see what I thought was a good channel of analysis and pushback from the lens of capitalism skepticism’s to a full mouthpiece to moronic concepts like “yeah we can fix capitalism” and “surely bidenomics are great”
Good riddance”

“It’s rare in current media to find commentary around capitalism that is focused on making capitalism work well. There is plenty out there opposing it completely, or praising it completely, or pretending that bad ideas are really great ideas that are going to work for the people they’re shilling...”Read full review »

“Thank you for an easy way to understand “middle out bottom up” economics!! I have a republican neighbor who thinks the reason her portfolio is doing so well is that the interest rates haven’t gone up recently and that Biden controls the feds and interest rates!! Now I have some easy to understand...”Read full review »

“I always listen to Akimbo and Pitchfork Economics. I love the descriptive header for this show: explaining who gets what and why.

“Some of these episodes appear to be cherry picking data to fit preconceived political narratives. They’re not neutral or actually data based, despite claims to the contrary.

“Nick & crew have done a lot of nice work with minimum wage, but the pod has drifted from an informative take on neoliberal economics to a more general conservative-bashing venue with an incrementally more favorable stance on destructive and extremist economic ideas like UBI and reparation.”
