  • Female host

    She sounds like a valley girl, or uptalk style, in one episode used the word ‘whatever’ 13 times!!! Seems like someone raised in a wealthy family. Change your style.

    I have to hide listening to you every week because I work in the trades and I can't have my coworkers thinking I wear vests on the weekends.

    But, the "This is Why Credit Card Rates Are So High" Ep made me feel like an insane person. Speculating that poor people must love paying for advertising and high rates is satire. I would've laughed more if I wasn't busy being irritated. Maybe revisit that topic in the future. Kisses

  • Great Show

    Covers disparate topics with interesting subject matter experts.

    Hosts are great and very knowledgeable. Though Joe should have a jar which he has to put $5 into every time he finishes a sentence with etcetera!

  • Nearly Perfect

    I’ve enjoyed the podcast for years. So much to like but someone please ask Joe to stop talking over/interrupting every guest and to be more concise when asking questions. It is not charming and does not add value to the show in any way
