No podcast has this level of volatility in terms of guest quality or host engagement. It’s either pocket aces or 2-7 off-suit with nothing in the middle. At the risk of being rude, the more high minded the guest the greater the slog. Funnily enough authors and actors make the worst guests,...Read full review »

"The Moment" with Brian Koppelman consistently delivers insightful conversations, and the "Best Of" episode with Julia Cameron is a prime example. Brian's genuine engagement and deep connection to Julia's work, "The Artist’s Way," shine through, making this episode...Read full review »

The David Lipsky episode that Brian says is the reason he podcasts is unintentionally hilarious. Two privileged, pretentious peas one-upping each other in a pod. Brian can be an xlnt interviewer, so let's say this was a "one for him" episode.Read full review »

Stop production, help support the WGA

Just listened to your interview with Bruce Hornsby; your interactions with him were great. Didn’t seem like you were bogged down with a list of questions you had to get through. Seemed like a natural conversation - well done.

Always loved the show and his style. Realllh love most guests. But man Steve Albani May be the most lame, pretentious artsy guy I’ve heard!!!! He’s everything that is stuffy about over thinking art, good lord!!

The people Brian interviews are more interesting than him, hence his interest in speaking with them. Brian - please stop talking so much! Let your guests have the mic!

Brian Koppelman’s The Moment is the standard for long form interview podcasts.

White guilt permeates every episode. Unlistenable.
Barry90909090 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/22
Such a great podcast about artists process, so inspiring and informative, so many great references to check out too. A podcast that demystifies the artists process, candid and honest discussion about the difficulties of developing art and how that is the same for those experienced or not - the...Read full review »

I got here after listening to Brian on Hell or Highwater; really great insights into the work of people shaping our popular culture

Just started listening but big fan already. Was/am a huge fan of Billions but didn't know Brian had a podcast until recently. The diversity of guests is great, loved the dominique wilkins episode - keep 'em coming. Also looking forward to watching SuperPumped on Showtime soon. Brian, if...Read full review »

Dude. The worst.

So happy you went along with Michael Bamberger. I could listen to you two discuss race and golf and Augusta and all of the nuances in-between for another hour.
TheRealSlideman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/21
I didn’t really know Brian until the podcast. Rounders is one of my favorite movies. I saw a few seasons of Billions and loved that too. My favorite episode is the one with Julia Cameron. Someone gave me that book in1994, and it’s been sitting on my shelf. After learning about the morning pages,...Read full review »

OMG I only listened to the Sarah Kay episode because I am a poet and have listened to all of Sarah’s poems and I have her books I love her as a poet and she is my girl in the black hood who inspires me as a young poet of fourteen years old.

Nice podcast. Learned a lot
HuskerJohn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/27/21
Brian works hard to ask attentive and particular questions. I think I’ve learned a lot from him, and love the show.
Tyler Bright Hilton via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/18/21
I don't always write reviews, but when I do, they are for shows (and hosts) who make a difference. Brian's ability to unlock the Moments that are meaningful in ones life and share them with the audience are of great value.Read full review »

I heard Brian Koppelman on Tim Ferris and told my wife I found my spirit animal. I have listened to 20+ episodes, usually when I’m running, and constantly have to stop and take notes. I’ve even had to pause episodes to listen to later because they were so interesting I didn’t want to be...Read full review »

Really enjoyed the show for a couple years and then Brian seemed to have wandered away from the original point and made it largely about his cry-baby leftism. Fed up with getting hit over the head with it and him never citing an actual example of what it is he rails on and on about. I am...Read full review »

I have just listened to your interview with Suzanne Vega, totally excellent! Thank you...
peteamo via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/24/20
I’d never heard of Brian prior to stumbling onto his podcast. What drew me in was a list of guests beyond the usual podcasting suspects - Doug Ellin, Richard Marx (he’s still alive!), Adam Duritz, Eddie Burns, etc. Those are great guests. Lord knows we’ve all had enough of Jocko and Ferris. My...Read full review »

As a musician and aspiring songwriter, The Moment has given me an incredible amount of useful advice about how to pursue creative endeavors with passion and rigor. Brian Koppelman brings his vast knowledge, thoughtful perspective and contagious enthusiasm to every conversation. I've heard his...Read full review »

I found this podcast listening to Brian on Tim Ferris’ show - another must listen, if you’re not already. Brian has a way of talking about things that just makes you feel like it’s all gonna be OK! I’ve found this show while making the transition to being a full time creative. And Brian’s...Read full review »

Interesting podcast but Brian talks over his guests, often as their making a point or delivering a punchline.
SmittyPDX via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/17/20
Did you know that Brian wrote Rounders, worked with Steven Soderbergh, and that Solitary Man helped get his career back on track? If not, don't worry, he'll remind you of these facts in almost every episode. And if he's not doing that, then he's probably interrupting his guest to...Read full review »

I’ve become obsessed with culling this podcast. What I enjoy most is the amount of insight shared by guests. There’s a lot of uncomfortable disclosure. What I mean by that is that people seem to “go there” with Brian Koppelman. Sharing insight or experience they may not otherwise share. That...Read full review »

Seriously, does anyone need more of this type of ignorant snot in their lives? Ask yourself if you need to be scolded and laughed at about your ‘hillbilly family values’ anymore than you already are by every contemptible media outlet on the planet. Answer: NO!
RockyMountainWay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/20
Artists need guides and to fill the cup of encouragement at times. This podcast is currently a source of that for me.
you-zer1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/10/19
Brian, excellent podcast. You are part of my “must” lineup of podcast listening. You ask the questions I would ask. You dig into great success thoughts with your guests. Thank you!
@leftyjack via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/09/19
Loved the Toad the Wet Sprocket episode so much. I'm one of those who's been a fan since the begining. A question, though: Where was Randy and why was he not mentioned?Read full review »

Thanks for your generosity Brian. Your podcasts are excellent work and art!

I’ve only just begun to explore this brilliant podcast and have thoroughly enjoyed the insights and intimacies host Brian Koppelman draws out of his guests through his curiosity, respect and enthusiasm for their work. I gravitate toward media that explore and illuminate the souls of those whose...Read full review »
