  • Best CA Real Estate Podcast

    Unlike other real estate market podcasts, this is neither a cheerleading festival for Realtors nor is it a doomsday podcast for clicks. It’s just great information and perspective that can be used to help make better real estate decisions. I recommend this for consumers and agents alike. My only suggestion would be to have more frequent episodes and better audio quality.

  • Rehearse!

    This podcast does give the accurate numbers but the hosts have ZERO charisma and it’s hard to listen to. Between the “you know” and innumerable “uhhhs…”, stammering, and hesitation it sounds super amateur. Think listening to the most esoteric college class being delivered by someone whose never spoken in public. Try rehearsing. Try listening to some great radio shows, podcasts and interviewers and inject some dynamism into this podcast. It could be so much better.

  • Too much fluff

    Respectfully, you’re economists-not comedians, not commentators, and not really conversationalists or trained as interviewers. Please get to the bottom line and make your point. You spend a tremendous amount of time repeating yourselves and talking about nothing.

  • Good content terrible audio

    In the last episode one of you couldn’t be heard it all. I think it’s a good idea to at least quickly listen to your own podcast to make sure the recording goes as intended
