  • Love it

    This is my favorite podcast that I follow. Joshua is brilliant and incredibly knowledgeable on so many different topics. He has been very influential for me in many ways, but particularly in homeschooling. He’s so interesting to listen to and I’m beyond grateful for all of the amazing content he keeps putting out. You don’t hear many of these ideas anywhere else and that’s what I love about this podcast. It’s always fresh, original, and fascinating.

Sorry, Joshua, you’ve... more

  • Very Socially Removed Podcast Host

    Before I share my review, know that I very rarely leave negative reviews, however I feel compelled to share my thoughts for this podcast. I work in healthcare, have my doctorate, have been on the path to financial independence since 2018, have done a fair bit of world traveling, and I continue to sop up any information I can to better my life.

    I used to enjoy listening to this podcast, and over the years his financial advice has been helpful. However, the podcast’s “about” section needs to be ... more
