“I really want to listen to all of Mark’s “interviews” because his guests are always super interesting people… but he talks too much and doesn’t let them actually answer the questions half the time.”

“Seems like Mark hasn’t learned to stop interrupting his guests and talking about himself. It’s a shame as he gets some interesting people on the show but cannot stand the way he “interviews””

“I can’t recommend this podcast more highly.
Mark is so incredibly entertaining, insightful and relevant.
The motivation and inspiration I get from it weekly can’t be rivaled.
Well….maybe by Straight Talk 😊
Keep up the incredible work, everything you say resonates with me in some way.

“1. Dr.Green was right- YES, a culture of positive psychology is critical to take the business to the next level for every single person involved. It does feel more positive every day since reopening. 2. BangnBody on Wednesday morning drives?😄No no no. The T&Cs need to be renegotiated. 3....”Read full review »

“This has so much potential to be a great podcast about Australian businesses that have made it, but it’s just awful, mostly because of the host. We all have a finite amount of time on this planet, don’t waste it by listening to this tripe.”

“For an entrepreneurial style podcast, some of the guests sound completely silver spoon fed. This is clear with the lack of passion with some of them- give us a hardship story- not a Bondi beach glamor story.”

“Incredibly real and raw. Love the no BS approach from MB and the way he has no hesitation to stop guests talking mid sentence to explain their points to a lay person. Not many interviewers have the ability to do this.
Always looking forward to the next one 👌”

“Please Mark just shut up for a moment and let your guests talk!! They are interesting and have relatable lessons for us all. In the last episode with the soda guy, I think you talked for 15 mins straight! This is an interview based show, it should be a conversation not a Mark monologue.”

“Mark Bouris has a wealth of business know how and seems to enjoy his time behind the mic. While the guest lineup is strong, I feel that this, as a business oriented podcast, should not include random f-bombs and other lazy crutches of language. It should really be worthy of 4.5 stars, but the...”Read full review »

However, sometimes you need to listen to what is being said with a view to learning something new.
