“Felicity Hannah does a supurb job hosting on Fridays. Alas, on Monday through Thursday Will Bain starts well but degrades to talking over his experts and guests. This has grown so annoying that I only listen on Friday. Monocle's Globalist podcast is a wonderfully moderated on presented...”Read full review »

Frankly, what have I been...”Read full review »

The podcast is now so dumbed down with little in depth financial news. Felicity Hannah saying ‘I want to hear from you’ every...”Read full review »

“The primary means of product in the U.K is the ability of government to borrow money and if that does not work they just print money.
The U.K does not have another significant means of production yet this Podcasr seems happily report on other means of productions
Very odd !”

Every show has guests coming on moaning or sharing their depressing story about why life is hard for them or their trade. You feel worse after listening to every show.

“Wake up to money used to be focused solely on financial discussions/advice. Now the topics just sound like any generic breakfast programme with sport talks and maybe the occasional business or financial news/ discussions.”

“The new style of wake up to money is sadly lacking.
I really miss the heavier more worldly programme of the past.
Nothing wrong with the presenters but it does feel flat and basic.
It comes across as a cheap production.”

Then it was changed to 45 mins, so what has happened to the extra 15mins because of the changes we are back to just over 30min. It is still an interesting programme but something has gone out of it....”Read full review »

“This show should be renamed the Sean Farington show.
He can talk for Britain and spends ages asking guests a questions and then butts in after a few seconds.
He is on some sort of ego trip and likes the sound of his own voice.
