“No complaints about the show. Unless I’m missing some episodes the show always seems like a cautionary tale for creatives who make the choice and take the risks to do creative work for a living. Like somehow that’s bad that we’re not financial wizards. Being being financially savvy can be...”Read full review »

“First of all, I love the show. But second of all, either Vivan Tu is plagiarizing Ramit Sethi or maybe it’s the other way around. Either way they are using identical talking points about not being Scrooge and “living your rich life”. The interview overall was a little cringe, but that part...”Read full review »

“The too good to be true show is so bad. It’s just two people hating on things that some other people like. Are Magic the Gathering cards a good investment? Are rods and reels? Golf clubs? Pyrex? Maybe to a few, but it’s really about a hobby or just things we like.
I listened to the most recent...”Read full review »

“I really appreciate this approach to financial discussions as someone who never felt “good” at money nor had an easy time learning about finance 101 this has really felt like a podcast for me. I’ve learned so much without feeling talked down to or at.
Also so excited for Chelsea’s book so...”Read full review »

“Too Good To Be True just isn’t as savvy as the old show in which Chelsea hosted and interviewed professionals.

“I’m enjoying the new format. It’s refreshing to hear new voices. My only complaint is similar to the one that has been expressed about Chelsea. It’s difficult to enjoy a podcast when one host continuously speaks over the other one. If they can smooth out this issue, I’ll continue to listen.”

“I’m really enjoying listening to Ryan and Julia’s series. Julia’s pbs show is great and it’s cool to hear more from her. Ryan seems lovely and they have a really nice chemistry.
It was a bit confusing to find after listening to it on YouTube, maybe it should be listed as it’s own thing?”
