Reviews

4.9 out of 5 stars from 112 ratings
  • Good on his own, but not a good interviewer

    Peter is brilliant and insightful on his own, but when he has a guest on he talks over the guest and rambles on an on about his own ideas. I was excited to see Paul Toscano was a guest and wanted to hear Paul’s ideas, but was frustrated that Peter didn’t let him talk without taking over the discussion.

    If the show was just Peter, I’d give it 5 stars, but with guests I’d give it 2 stars.

  • Brad Wilcox

    the Brad WilcoxTalk in Alpine made me angry, this one adds more fuel to the fire. For him to say that people who don’t have religion aren’t good people and selfish in an emergency doesn’t know much about history!!And he needs to look at the statistics of Ponzi schemes in Utah, the highest in the United States!
