“I generally find this podcast helpful and educational, if a bit behind the times on economics with a strong neoliberal bent (for example, GDP as the be-all and end-all and the appropriate way to measure growth in all cases). But this episode with Pippa Milgram was totally off the rails. They...”Read full review »

“I can’t think of another podcast that covers so much ground and is so informative as this one . Always entertaining and often funny with the little asides. The range of guests is amazing . Always worth your time to listen.”

“I love this podcast so much. I learn something new with each listen, and the banter between David and John is gas. It’s disappointing that they don’t feature more guests who aren’t men though.”

“Been following DMcW writings on and off since he published ‘the good room’. Really enjoy the podcast. Right balance of banter, common sense, history and current integration of economics with reality. Today’s episode essentially showed that David and John don’t have too many of a certain...”Read full review »

“David has a brilliant knowledge of economics and mostly solid knowledge of history, if he’d stop virtue signalling to the left for brownie points and never said a word again about sport or music, all of which only serves to outline him as a “spoofer”, well then the podcast would be near 5 star....”Read full review »

“Dear David and John
Why not be the leaders?
It’s fine admitting how useless you both are at parenting or being available for your Childress needs….
Why not commit openly to changing that and seeing what your wives need ?
When women are supported by the husbands, partners and employers
Then there...”Read full review »

“Love the podcast and it makes me miss home sometimes, but I feel you guys don’t get a good feel of country life in Ireland.
Please get a big bogger on to address this!!
Can you also do a pod on how to get rid of the class system that is so endemic in our society.
All d best”

“Truly great stuff - the Ukraine visits are inspiring. Everyone in the west MUST wise up and realise this Russian aggression has to be opposed. Listen here to someone who went there in the midst of it, amazing great work.
And if you’re just after the economics — there is plenty for you too :)”
