Make America great again! It’s amazing how clueless you are when you offend half of the population with your propaganda

I’m just writing to thank you Rufus, Caleb, and everyone else at the next big idea for the sharing so many powerful ideas in such a concise digestible format.

I get so much knowledge from each episode and I love how Rufus hosts and talks. Not like most podcasts that are more or less opinion shows where the hosts love to mainly hear themselves, in this podcast it this is all about diving deep into one book per episode with the author. The books...Read full review »

Please Rufus, could you speak slower? Thanks 😊

Huge fan of the show. Always an interesting conversation and topic, but have especially loved the episodes where Caleb has hosted. I feel like the topics are generally more meaty and less “thought-leadery.” I would suggest all listeners to make sure you don’t miss an episode where he’s leading...Read full review »

I love this podcast. Caleb is such a great interviewer and I can’t wait to hear more from him.

This podcast is so well researched and features some fantastic interviews. Sometimes I feel like the producers are reading through my search history and thought as they seem to land on subjects that have been floating through my mind and then explore them in a new and exciting way.

Rarely not worth your time I don’t listen to every single one of anything but I listen to most of these and I am a big consumer of all information history health and more

The content on this app is superb. The podcasts are my favorite and most useful element, followed by the book bites. The functionality of the app is a little wonky, but the quality of the content makes up for it. I work with college students, and I have actually gotten funding to have several...Read full review »

I listen to a lot of junky comedy podcasts. I love them, but sometimes you feel like you need to eat a salad, ya know? This podcast is that salad. Great podcast for a morning walk and always good for finding the latest and greatest in non-fiction.

This starts off with “Are you ready to be infuriated?”. Wasn’t long after the guest came on that said, if everyone would pay the taxes they own we could abolish poverty. Stating basically that the taxpayers who take advantage of federal/state tax breaks such as the 529 plan and other retirement...Read full review »

Informative and fun to listen to!

Rufus, I had a great time talking to you and your wife Alisa at our neighborhood park dinner a couple of months ago. I started listening to your podcast after that and immediately got addicted to it. I will not single out any specific episode, as each of them evokes different ideas and emotions....Read full review »

You have field my mind with so much more the what I was thinking. I truly thank you

I love this podcast, it’s one of my favourites, always interesting & insightful. Two thumbs way up 😊
tfly64 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/10/22
First time I listened to this podcast and its a home run. Annie’s take on the importance of quitting a job, a relationship or any other endeavor is eye opening and forces us out of our comfort zone and onto a richer life. So timely in my case. I am now hooked! Thank You BIll

The next big idea is well curated, thoughtful, and intelligent the interviewers always make the guest shine and sound better than they would without them. And the guests are always interesting and not your typical pundit, CEO, or leader of the moment.
Runandlisten via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/09/22
Thank you for a fascinating and very well-crafted series of podcasts. I always come away inspired. I just listened to An American Odyssey and the interview with Dan McGrath. Just riveting, and so well done. Thank you!!

I never, ever leave reviews but I love this podcast and book club. I joined the book club before I ever listened, and have literally never once been disappointed by a selection, even when the description sounds like a book that isn’t up my alley or relevant to my world. Unfortunately, as a law...Read full review »

Could it be possible that the humans might have originated on Pangea? Then as the continent split, it’s the beginning of the breaks up the tribes.

Cool to see the show trying out a new format. The Twitter episode is now among my favorites. Smart, concise. Loved how it went beyond Musk’s acquisition to consider how social media is going to evolve in the next few years. Brilliant conversation — keep ‘em coming!
pritchardsbike33618 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/02/22
I just listened to the last episode on Musk buying Twitter. Literally both guests and the presenter had the same random anti-Musk views, what is the point of three people talking if they recite the same nonsense, and the podcast is called the ‘big ideas’!
ahawez via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/01/22
How could you do an ENTIRE episode on Musk’s acquisition of Twitter and not even touch the topic of censorship and deplatforming? That’s poor journalism, and all that was said was basically “Ew, how annoying” and “I just don’t think he can manage it.” Where are the facts? Where is any kind of...Read full review »

This is for hypocrites who hate free enterprise but still buy and sell every day.

Love most of the episodes. I have a few favs I have listened to multiple times because I find the concept helpful and want to keep then fresh in my mind.
equitonic via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/22
Always enjoy the variety, quality interviews which is thoroughly researched and thought provoking. Most recently Book Bites is my current obsession, this is a innovative way to sample my next great read
Jacush via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/03/22
I just discovered this podcast last week and I’ve listened to so many episodes since then. I learned about good anxiety, habits, spirituality, characteristics of high achievers, racism in astronomy, Shellye Archambeau. Immediately bought Shellye’s audiobook and have put the others onto my wish...Read full review »

I usually listen to political podcasts & realised I needed a beak from them. This podcast uplifts me & makes me think about things I probably wouldn’t have encountered otherwise. Try a couple of episodes to see if it’s for you.

Brilliant discussion, so much good information; I had to listen twice, once to hear the concepts and once more to take notes on the studies. Well done!
Shill2121 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/23/21
If you need to keep up on the latest fade in sociology or management this is the place for you. All the ideas are supported enthusiastically with zero critical examination. It’s just a gigantic ad factory. I usually look at the guest/book and go research it elsewhere.

Perfect in every way, you are making the world a better place, thank you

The Midwestern accent used in the melon ads is so overdone I would hesitate to subject a child to the program for fear they might develop something similar.

Dear Big Idea producers, A big idea that could change our lives is rooted in agriculture. Agriculture contributes to global warming and could be used to reverse it. It’s amazing. concept based on working with nature rather than against it as we are doing now. I heard it said on your first podcast...Read full review »

It’s so true—we Americans have this belief that changing any habit requires suffering on some level. Instead, making change fun works a whole lot better.
MarilynJVT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/10/21
I really enjoyed listening to this weekly until the show became too political. Every episode seemed to contain at least one jab towards Former President Trump. Expected better from a show claiming to be the next big idea and predicated on the idea that you had to open your mind.
Mark Sheck via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/22/21
This podcast is the most inspiring, informative, positive, well researched and uplifting of its kind. I respect the open mindedness of the podcaster and his choice of guests - they all have so much to offer. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wisdom.

One of my, if not, my favorite podcast. Very insightful, informative, and joyful!
