Everybody needs to hear Dan’s story. Money, money, money. Dan’s a cool dude. He doesn’t respect money - and that’s what’s wonderful about him. In an age of disaster capitalism, Dan’s the man.

I cannot believe this series was so long. There is only enough content for 1 episode, max 2.

I would have kept listening but the background music was }#%#{%% annoying and unnecessary. Thought I was in a night club. Why did you do this but was an interesting story enough without crappy music.

Very well put together. I binged it as I recall it happening and the ACA story. Only issue is the sound quality isn’t always the best, sometimes it’s difficult to hear what Dan has just said.

It’s like listening to two autistic people having a meet and greet. Could be a lot shorter and much much much less time interviewing the interviewee who is a bit of a knob.

Really loved this story. Fascinating to hear from Dan directly, it is definitely what makes this podcast unique.. you can hear his genuine personality and he’s just a knock about Aussie bloke who exploited an opportunity but has learned the most valuable lesson.. you can’t run away from guilt and...Read full review »

Really great story. It’s a very interesting example of unexpected human behavior. Dan is an odd dude in the way he handles the glitch with eventual a-typical motivations. I’ve listened to 100? Podcasts, maybe? This is one of my top 3. Endearing, crazy and super funny. Really hoping the movie gets...Read full review »

There’s way too many cringeworthy and exaggerated events in this story. On the whole, it’s a pretty amazing story. Amazing as it is, I wouldn’t say I enjoyed listening to this podcast. The main character Dan is so dumb that his decision-making just made me hate him and cringe the whole time I...Read full review »

Love the story, am on episode four or five I think at the moment, well told. The only issue is there are times when Dan speaks and you play music over the top of him and I can’t understand anything he says, the more I turn it up the louder this annoying elevator music gets. Otherwise great podcast

Wow! I was totally engrossed in this podcast. So glad Dan had a good dine out at the bank’s expense! Kudos to you Dan. Brave effort! Just love Dans life perspective
Tisme Susan via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/19/23
Interesting story but the main ..character is incredibly insufferable. I got through one episode, barely. That was horrible.
esveesea via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/15/23
This is an incredibly interesting and entertaining story which unfortunately is ruined by overproduction. Why do we need to have corny elevator music and sound effects interrupting the story? The voice over from the host is also patronising. Just let Dan explain the story.

Addicted to this podcast, very entertaining! Such an unusual and interesting chain of events!
ezmay7 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/13/23
Unreal. Thought the story built beautifully and loved every part of it. A rare insight into a once in a lifetime chance/crime/opportunity 😂🤘🏼💪🏽

This is a great story that will have you binge listening! Dan, you are a legend and such a true Aussie with one of the most epic stories to tell the grandkids! Loved the Podcast!!

Gotta wonder if “ol mate” is now the Premier of Victoria? Wang boyz
Maxtopia via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/25/23
Listening to the second episode now and really enjoying it. Not keen on the music though as the tale is interesting enough without descriptive music. But excellent 5 star podcast non the less.
sashajasper via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/29/22
This is one incredible tale. I’d vote for Dan - he seems to have more capability, integrity, and better communication skills than most politicians.
Boisin Berry via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/15/22
Such a great podcast. Dan is a natural, his way with words makes me want to listen to him all day, he’s hilarious in that self deprecating aussie way.
LizE63 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/26/22
Great yarn but so many obvious exaggerations, it’s hard to work out what to believe. For example, the maths doesn’t work out for the $1.6 million over 4 months. When he claims to have had $80,000 in a hotel bathtub, how did he explain that to the cleaners? He claims to have taken a helicopter...Read full review »

Loved this podcast. An unbelievable story told in a lighthearted Aussie manner. Thoroughly enjoyed.
Kristy10102019 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/15/22
The pearl clutching reviews having a cry about Dan ripping off “ordinary working Aussies” with morally bereft super funds or assuming the story is embellished because the poster hasn’t got enough imagination (or enough working class mates) to put themselves in Dan’s shoes make this story even...Read full review »

There is only evidence of approx $250k missing I 4 months in court from what you said , no additional stories of outrageous generosity or hotel testimonies or chopper pilots so where is the other missing $1,350000 that didn’t exist in court? $2000 a day for 4 months is approx $240k was it the...Read full review »

Dan is an imbecile. There are many thousands of Australians who collect and process tax for the Government everyday. Thank our lucky stars they aren’t all thieves like Dan Saunders. This podcast is one of the lamest I’ve heard.
Hollowaymum via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/25/22
What should be a fascinating story, a bank card that never runs out of money, is ruined by a boring protagonist. Dan should not be on podcasts, he is not well spoken at all and it was quite difficult to make it through the whole series. It would have been a better podcast had he told his story to...Read full review »
Lil Ritchie via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/30/22
I could not help myself but grow to like Dan, he is infectious, witty and just a down right genuine bloke. Dans story brought a smile to my face. Would love to have a beer with Dan.
Fevoor via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/28/22
The podcast is well done & the host manages to work through the story methodically & kept me engaged until episode 5. Dan is a complete moron & lost me when he blamed the bank. Don’t get me wrong I’m no fan of the banks but he failed to understand he actually ripped off ordinary...Read full review »

Wow such a great story. I did not expect to have so many thought-provoking moments after listening. Dan does a great job of keeping the listener plugged into his emotions and reflective moments throughout this journey. Of course, he had a bit of a moral setback considering the way he got the...Read full review »

Could have been an interesting story but just didn’t capture my attention. Too much like a long interview rather than the narrator telling the story. My main issue is with the adverts for cryptocurrency. This should come with a warning about investments, nothing is guaranteed like the adverts...Read full review »
Maza7890 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/28/22
This is a cracking story. Episode 3 is the highlight. So good. But Episode 1 is way too long and not great. And I wonder if Dan is taking the piss a bit in the last Episode??? Seems a little over the top & perhaps embellished for the listener’s pleasure. Anyway, top story & podcast.
Frogringer via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/16/22
This podcast is wild! Such a good listen!
Narny101 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/11/22
In the first episode, the host says “you might be thinking that Dan sounds like a bit of a knob, but I challenge you not to like the guy by the end of this podcast.” His level of knob-ness exceeded my expectations and I found him absolutely cringe worthy. Heaven forbid a movie actually does get...Read full review »

Really enjoyed listening to Dan. What a story. Really well told. Feels honest, not overly dramatic yet quite unbelievable this actually happened
NarraGirl via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/05/22
This is a great story that will make you laugh. Very entertaining. Highly recommend this rollicking yarn
Choco_Izzy via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/05/22
Most of the episodes would benefit if the weakest parts of the conversations were cut - there’s a lot of repetition and the pace is very slow. It’s too bad, because the idea is great and the characters are interesting.
Mariemmmm via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/03/22
I thought Dan was so amazing and stupid at the same time. Like what an ‘absolute mastermind’ and ‘idiot’… were phrases I used in one complete sentence!!! He did sort of mess up but don’t we all?? - he didn’t hurt anyone except the ego of the NAB. He should never have been locked up for this....Read full review »

What an absolutely amazing podcast!!!! This is the most amazing podcast i have ever heard.. I loved it!!! If only it went longer!!! I want more random stories please!! I can’t wait for the movie!!!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌

Dan was so painful to listen to, way off on a lot of his reporting in relation to criminal, banks and a few other things. Had to turn it off.
Taleah85 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/24/22
Dan’s story is entertaining and sad at the same time. Would have been interested to hear more the nature of his sociopathy that meant he could fool himself into blaming a bank for his self destructive actions. Why was he so compelled to destroy his life, push his loved ones away and reject any...Read full review »

I feel bad leaving a rather indifferent review for a podcast which hasn’t yet picked up a following: 3 stars was the absolute maximum I could honestly muster! The presenter narrates quite well, and tries hard to extract coherent information out of his subject with simple and sometimes repetitive...Read full review »

It’s disappointing to hear a criminal being put on a pedestal. Whether you think he is a “good bloke” or not, his response to a glitch was to steal. This is gross.
BBCCSSOO via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/17/22
Dan sounds like a knock about average bloke. Great storytelling and very enjoyable. Extremely frustrating the way he went about it all, but you don’t know what you don’t know and it seems that Dan didn’t know much! Nonetheless an adventure was had
Whatswiththevoice via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/16/22
Just loved it Dan is a champ and the story is told so well!!! Just wish I was there lol 🍾🥂

Great host, the subject (Dan) is great - very easy listen. Highly recommend
Pico Bot via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/11/22
Amazing podcast - Dan you are a complete anomaly!! what an unbelievable story, made even more unbelievable by your actions to get closure. When this gets made into a movie, the yanks are not going to believe that someone like this actually exists! Being able to live with yourself and sleep at...Read full review »

Only sad thing is he went and confessed. He shouldn’t have. Nobody in the government is correct nor honest, otherwise you wouldn’t hear about offshore investment.

Me and several others can’t seem to download ep7. Is there a “Glitch” going on somewhere??

It’s a bit of a problem when the subject of your podcast is so inarticulate, and the host is not much better.
