“The pod should stick to the economy & away from the leftie politics, Jim needs to reel in Chris from his flights of fancy.”

“You old fogies really aught to stop talking about politics. You're showing your delusional old age shine through with your disappointment that Trump won the election. All the political shaming is childish and short-sighted. You're old, you benefited from your generational spendthrift...”Read full review »

“Chris presents himself as cold and objective, data-driven- except, when the data isn’t convenient to his ideology, hes willing to trot out some crackpot fringe nonsense”

“Jim, Chris; still listening to your podcast. I was interested in the question about Irish MEPs and their pro Russia bias. I think it is really worrying that this is not covered enough by the mainstream media. Another issue that is not flagged enough is our own very left-leaning president has...”Read full review »

“A podcast should challenge the listener through a discussion based on a detailed assessment of the issues at hand and not a rehash of the helicopter view on these key issues.
Two guys here that are basically on the same page saying the same things in different accents. “The Irish economy is...”Read full review »

“Great podcast, only problem is the audio. The audio quality is perfect but the recording volume is set too low. Even at full volume it is difficult to understand. Other podcasts have a higher volume.
Hope it is corrected.”

“I’m a Brit living in Israel, and I have no idea how I stumbled across this podcast but I enjoy listening to it. Right now we are living in and out of bomb shelters as the rockets from Gaza pound central Israel. I enjoy the tranquility of the podcasts, the balance btw Irish and English hosts and...”Read full review »

“Overall I like this podcast and listen to every episode. Both Jim and Chris are informed, eloquent and experienced in their fields and have interesting takes on things economic.
However I do find that they don’t act as foils to each other and just take turns to say their own pieces and move on....”Read full review »

“Sober and detailed economic analysis of local and international issues. I think the two guys are easy to listen to despite the somewhat dry content. I would give 5 stars only I find Chris’s idiot to be persistently very low. I can’t hear him well in the car or while brushing my teeth. Please...”Read full review »

“The Irish guy is good but he lists too many numbers - just give us the analysis. What’s the point you’re trying to make? Who needs to hear ‘ from 56.3 to 44.2’ over and over again. Otherwise great podcast. Thanks.”

Obviously there much earlier collaborative work time together has made them unique in their field. Well worth...”Read full review »

“First episode I’d listened to. Overall interesting podcast. But I’ve a major gripe with the last segment. The segment discussed if we compare this generation to the the year ‘87 then this generation is clearly better off. ‘87 is almost 40 years ago. When people say this generation is worse than...”Read full review »

Really enjoy the podcasts thanks.
Chris you have said many times that rising interest rates would reveal weakness in the financial sector and with hindsight it’s not surprising that yet again it’s the banking sector that seem to be swimming in the all together. Silicon Valley Bank...”Read full review »

“Today’s podcast, Feb. 10th 2023, is great.
It is a joy to hear the perspective of a new generation through the voice of such an articulate young person. (Regardless of the subject at hand.)
What a great initiative!
Keep it going please.”

“Jim Power is a lackey for this FG government. He seems terrified of any real change happening in this country because he obviously happy with his bit. The scaremongering is unreal. Never any mention of that despite our record tax takes, our transport infrastructure is shambolic, child poverty and...”Read full review »

Jim Power and Chris Johns present economics in terms of probability rather than certainty and base their opinions on the actual data which they both take time to review. I never thought I’d be interested in the Irish economy but compared to where the UK is...”Read full review »
