Very enjoyable and informative for anyone working in the PE industry! Well organized and easy to listen to.

The quality of this podcast has diminished over time. The recent content just seems like rehash of consulting 2 by 2 and 3 by 3 frameworks from business books. Preferred it when the content focused on the PE topics vs how to improve the OpCo.

Fantastic topics for anyone who has a keen interest in PE

Nice show! I fell so motivated.

Entertaining Nuts and Bolts. Honest and entertaining look into the guts of PE
Jeffreaux802 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/22/21
Really helps if you want to learn about PE (and some aspects of VC too). Soundtrack is catchy too. Update: The best part of this podcast is the banter. Honestly.

I don’t work in private equity but I have enjoyed learning more about it. I really enjoy this podcast for gaining advice and hearing stories of what makes a great leader and how to build a high performing team. A lot of the stories and advice are applicable to people in all industries.

Really enjoy this podcast. I am a tax guy and have a PE client and wanted to get some background in the PE industry so I stumbled upon this pod. I ended up really enjoy listening to these guys talk and this has become my go to pod.

Whether you’re well established as PE innovator, or just getting started carving out a profitable niche that’s ready to grow - this is a must-listen podcast for you! Jim, Devin and the entire ParkerGale team do an incredible job leading conversations that cover a huge breadth of topics related to...Read full review »

Great content but too much time wasted on small talk, sidebars that only make the episode longer than needed. Love the content but don’t always have an hour+ to listen.
bduke19 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/11/20
I listen to this during my lunch breaks with a note book and pen handy. Very useful for me as a young investor. Thank you Parkergale

If you are outside PE and looking in, this is the most #reallife, actionable content you are going to find on mid-market private equity. If you want to learn about sourcing, buying, running, growing, and selling small technology companies, the Funcast is a treasure trove. If you ever wanted to...Read full review »

Even though my focus is on PE in the RE world, I can honestly say this is one of my favorite podcasts out. Learn a lot every show, get a lot of insight into spaces I’m not actively involved in AND Chicago was the first place I lived in America so big UPs to chi-town.
Jdollaz829 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/30/19
Of late the show has been more about HR and the specifics of software businesses, which I understand given their investment focus, but it hasn’t focused much on investing, industry research, day-to-day of an investor / PE professional. Jim is a great host (and quite witty) but Devin’s addition...Read full review »

Great little podcast from some nifty folks in Chicago that give a great look into the industry. Production can be spotty on back catalog episodes, but the content is excellent!
Laughj84 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/23/19
I’ve listened to about 10 episodes now and have learned quite a bit. I guess that means they’re doing pretty good. I don’t know about two private equity geniuses though. Maybe two guys who know some stuff. 😉

Review from a mid-career PE investment professional. After bingeing old episodes for a couple weeks I am hooked. Very innovative and entertaining! Tell Dossett his curve ball is weak.
Derekee B via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/19
Thanks for always putting together such great content. I’ve loved following this podcast. I am a relatively junior professional in the industry and would be very curious to hear any tips on how to begin thinking about sourcing deals. Please keep up the great work, this is a phenomenal podcast!
alifornian via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/09/19
Would be nice if hosts spent more time listening when interviewing folks. Often find that they ask questions then proceed to answer their own question instead of letting the “expert” interviewee speak more extensively. Discussions are warranted of course. But giving more mic time to the guests...Read full review »

I have been devouring these podcasts...have been thinking about raising money for a fund with a strategy we think will do well....but these guys have really taught me how difficult it can be. I still might go down the path, but I have my eyes wide open due to all the great information from Devin...Read full review »

This podcast is great. It’s comparable to a cerebral ‘bro sesh’. 5/5 would recommend.

Great place to start learning about Private Equity
This is kind of ridiculous via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/10/18
I am an average Joe who does not know anything about equity deals, buy or sell side. I am in medicine and trying to learn more about all the equity deals going on in medicine (dermatology, urology, optho). I have picked up some tips but some of this is over my head. The podcast seems very...Read full review »

Devin and Jim provide transparency into their middle-market PE firm. Along the way they bring in guests from diverse backgrounds, operational, fundraising, market research, marketing and more! Learning from the Parker Gale perspective would be valuable for bankers, consultants, entrepreneurs,...Read full review »

Highly recommend for undergrad and business students interested in PE, anyone generally interested in PE, and anyone who wants to understand how investors think.
Leafsfan1989 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/06/18
I've been listening for about 2 months and am still catching up but so far I've found the podcast to be entertaining and informative. There's a wide range of topics and anyone from a seasoned PE person to just someone with a passing interest will find some, if not all, of the...Read full review »

Best podcast out there on any topic. Fun, engaging and intellectually awesome. One day, when I make into PE- I’ll owe it to these guys!
Turn Around Guru via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/11/18
One day prior to a meeting with the chairman of a well known PE company, I found you guys. I did a crash course of terms and shows related to management of the portfolio company. It was incredibly helpful in navigating through the interview. It helped to get me to the next step. Thank you

This is way more entertaining and informative than just reading investopedia

As a law student working this summer at firm that does a lot of PE and fund raising work work, this podcast has been a great way to get into and understand private equity. Its the reigning champ of my podcast list now.

Love hearing the episodes with Alan and Jim! Great perspectives on technology and business.

I'm not involved in PE directly but this podcast covers econ, marketing, hiring, HR, education, and many other issues of interest to almost any professional, and I've learned a lot of things that I can apply to my own business. You may not belive this but I've actually binge-listened...Read full review »

The podcast is by no means a textbook, but I doubt I’d still listen if it were. The conversations are certainly insightful, and the podcast is a good mix of fun and insight into the investment process. Would enjoy hearing another investment oriented episode - maybe the high level objectives of...Read full review »

Great insights and extremely entertaining

I’ve been binge listening to your podcast to pivot from a career in sports tech to joining the management team for a portfolio company of another PE firm in growth tech. Landed the gig and took the tips on navigating the board room to heart. Can’t quantify just how much I owe you for the...Read full review »
Don't be greedy 47 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/18
Pretty good explainers on the basics of private equity / tech. Can't tell whether or not I actually like the slow intros.... In all seriousness, this has been a very useful podcast to add to my rotation. The EY Parthenon episode was very good.Read full review »
