“I’ve listened to this show for years. I can tolerate the banter though Felix is sometimes heavy handed. But the female co-hosts (Elizabeth and Emily) give it right back to him. That’s okay with me.
The problem still is 2-fold:
Felix is too in love with his opinions. It can stunt dissent and...”Read full review »

“I’m a fan of Slate Money and Felix but he clearly doesn’t have kids because anyone at a public school knows checks still are used and my kid learned about them at school. Look I think kids should learn cursive too. But seriously! Maybe Felix sends his kids to bitcoin school but the rest of us...”Read full review »

“It used to be good because it had informed co-hosts. Emily & Elizabeth just don’t know very much about finance & economics. Emily at least tries to learn the subject but still not enough. Elizabeth is terrible; she doesn’t understand the substance.
Emily and Elizabeth mostly provide you...”Read full review »

“A very informative program in a clear and entertaining format. Definitely recommend it. My one negative is Felix is almost constantly critiquing every sentence out of his cohosts mouths. Otherwise well worth listening to.”

“Gave this pod a chance since I’ve caught up on a few and need to fill the extra time. I enjoy some of Slate’s other podcasts but this one is a miss. The financial topics are a bit too general for my liking and this most recent episode was the last straw. They did a segment of the NPR woke...”Read full review »

“Felix only provides a room to give a bad opinion that the women correct. I want a finance/business podcast. I wish the way Slate gave commentary wasn’t a pompous idiot corrected or informed by experts. Nevermind the sexism of multiple women paid and prepared to correct a male idiot. It’s exhausting.”

But over the past year, ads have gotten longer & denser, Emily turned into a suburban stereotype (bragging about using single use plastic bags because remembering reusable is sooo hard & my poor little girlie brain can’t), and Felix started...”Read full review »

However, after listening to only 4 episodes, I am unfollowing the show. Felix Salmon is intolerably rude and...”Read full review »

“Long-time listener, former subscriber. I love topic mix, but why is Felix always so dismissive of Elizabeth’s point of view? When his opinion differs from Emily’s, he seems to convey his more politely, but that poor Elizabeth! Every episode, multiple times! No one needs to listen to that much...”Read full review »

I do find Felix and Elizabeth’s constant disagreements a little...”Read full review »

“I like the topics and approach of Slate Money, but I’ve reached my limit on Felix Salmon’s sneering contempt—especially the way he blatantly sets up and knocks down his cohost Elizabeth Spires. Elizabeth, get out of there! I’d love to follow your intelligent, well-researched insights SOMEWHERE ELSE.”

Felix, on the other hand, is a proud know-nothing who is in love with the sound of his own musings. I am...”Read full review »

Her inputs and way of speaking are empty headed and frivolous and reflects poorly on women in finance....”Read full review »

“Listened to Money for the first in some years on Saturday. Felix Salmon is a hard-to-listen-to host. He drones on and on in an “as-I-discuss-in-my-book” sort of way, mansplaining at length—in a British accent, no less. It’s very unclear why Elizabeth Spiers and Emily Peck appear on the show:...”Read full review »
