Without a single stock tip, this podcast has helped me improve my portfolio’s performance dramatically. I started listening for the policy updates, but now I’m thinking more critically about my investments, taxes and overall strategy. As a 30 year old who’s trying to figure out retirement...Read full review »

Thanks for consistently delivering valuable and thoughtful content with respect and good humor. It is a first class podcast!

I am not the only one that commented on the fact that the people talking in this podcast (except for the host) have a robotic speech. They are certainly reading their scripts in a very unnatural way. This perception from the listener abates the information they are trying to deliver. I am sure...Read full review »

For a person who has never invested in Treasuries or Bonds until recently, this podcast was a real eye opener for me . I’m very appreciative of what both men had to say. Also appreciative that politics were kept out of the conversation. Recently I have lost all faith in our federal government...Read full review »

So many investing podcasts are too dumbed-down to be useful to people that have some prior knowledge. This one is just the right pace and level of technical detail for me. Keep up the good work!

Please continue the good work and possibly add more episodes in a month.
Jin Howa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/06/22
The presenters speak clearly and provide a beneficial service. I look forward to them all, keep up the good work.

Been listening for the last few years. I enjoy all the hosts and guests.

He backs away from the daily political noise to consider what might actually happen and how it affects investment decisions. Clear and balanced, and over time I’ve gained understanding of how markets work
Carol in Colorado via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/22
This podcast does a great job of explaining how policy impacts the current investing environment.
Don Shimoda via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/22
Comes across as everyone is reading from a script, which makes the delivery very dry. Information is good, but would be much better with a conversational presentation.

Excellent podcast highlighting what’s important and timely in Washington and the world and how it affects the markets. Perfect way to keep abreast of this information without the typical media hype.
slp735 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/19/22
This is my favorite podcast for current information about what is happening in the markets and how it is influenced by government action or inaction. And the best part is every speaker talks in plain English.

Wish I would have had these lessons and discussions earlier in my career and life to inform my investing. It is also important for even those experienced business people and investors who tend to ignore politics for economics and finance news. This feels an important gap and provides clear and...Read full review »

Right to the point allowing the listener to understand and interpret in his/her perspective. Informative news.
JOHN ., via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/15/21
Thoroughly informational, and politically objective, which are both rare these days. The show is boring though.
Byersjo12 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/20/21
Like another listener said, never misses a beat. Just the the situation and non political.
EdgarSonneborg via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/21
Mike Townsend never misses a beat. Great content and perfect guests.
Hugefan7 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/26/21
Informative and a straight presentation of the facts and potential impacts.
DikaiaKnight via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/21
This is another branch of the left-wing propaganda machine. Nothing but praise for our current president who has signed 44 executive orders in less than seven weeks, and for a new Congress for passing one of the most expensive legislative acts in history so quickly ...after wasting time trying to...Read full review »

Very informative and doesn’t really catch you in the emotional thrill ride from other podcast
Zack da Man1ac via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/21
I’m new to investing. Just bought my first stock through Schwab brokerage account and I found all this resources incredible useful for a rookie as myself. Thank you for putting all this perspectives together in an easy to follow podcast.
iCoast via Apple Podcasts · Panama · 11/13/20
This is a very useful podcast from experts, no hype, just the facts.
KarSwiss via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/12/20
Thank you for your straight up insight. So refreshing to not have to weed through the propaganda parade of main stream media.
woodfieldred via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/21/20
Absolutely fantastic breakdown of POLICY, and does a good job of keeping the “politics” and drama out of politics. I just want to hear about policy that has been passed and what is coming down the pipeline and this absolutely delivers. Host is great, and does a good job playing the middle. The...Read full review »

I came here for reasons related to investment, not politics.
Trebonics via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/01/20
Extremely on the mark! Looking forward to the next update!
fairgame! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/22/20
This podcast does an excellent breakdown of financial news that effects all of us, especially during these turbulent times. The analysis here is thorough, unlike anything you will find in the news.
MollzShan93 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/27/20
Invaluable information and commentary during unsettling times. Thank you!
Cycle on! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/24/20
Enjoying the Podcast
MerryQu via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/20
Really good content and attitude so even when the news is bad, the tone isn’t too depressing. I only wish that Mike didn’t sound so scripty. Otherwise I really like him!
Tare Flower via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/20
By far the best political podcast I’ve ever heard. Focused on facts and minimal opinion, so refreshing! I listen to politics all week, but I get more out of this weekly podcast, than a week full of angry conjecture and anecdotal euphemisms. Thank you!

The three “C” s, Concise,Clear & Comforting.
OSHA Trainer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/28/20
My first listening. Informative & interesting. Will listen to more.
lynnmather via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/20/20
Informative, eloquent & to the point. As a young investor is very important to be informed and this podcast makes it that much easier to be in the know with factual and non biased political updates.

Good Stuff
Wcmatteson via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/29/20
I listened to the Road to Recovery for Small Business episode. The content was very informative and thorough. However, it sounded like two 12 year olds were reading from an essay they wrote, complete with horrifically fake conversational segues and insincere mannerisms. It’s absolutely painful to...Read full review »
AlexMD via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/22/20
I look forward so much to listening to each episode to get an objective take on how current government decisions and policies impact markets, investments and current economics.
bilco11 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/20
it is a pleasure to be informed so clearly without any politics or bias. We have 100s of “news” sources but we investors need details. Not headlines, actionable information. Thank you!
SonomaHM via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/10/20
I’ve been searching for exactly this kind of fact based distillation of the impact of policy on investments.
Wilful via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/06/20
A well written and produced podcast that educates me on how political and legislative actions affect investment decisions.
YodaOfCanton via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/20
Very insightful, yet easy to follow. Well done Mike!
Beau Hartman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/23/19
Mike has a great way of breaking down complex current Washington topics into understandable language.
NH investor via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/18/19
I’ve heard mike to in the past. He brings a unique combination of Washington know-how with investor angle. Nicely done.
