  • Financial Podcast Junkie’s Favorite Show

    I listen to no less than 20 financial podcasts a week but when PTP comes out, it goes to the top. It’s real life examples every week with funny banter. The format of listening behind the scenes then going live is also entertaining. Keep plugging away folks, you’re doing a great job. That case with the broker stealing the client’s money was riveting and heartbreaking.

  • The Seinfeld of Finance Podcasts!

    I've been tuning into financial podcasts for several years now, and let me tell you, most of them are as fresh as week-old bread, recycled topics and ads galore. But then there's the PTP show, the Seinfeld of personal finance podcasts—it's about nothing, and that's what makes it gold. Sure, they throw in some solid financial info and banter, but what really shines are the hosts. Peter's humor is so suburban-dad, it's practically wearing socks with sandals; Dame's got that high-class redneck vibe... more

  • Nice show

    This is a show I will continue to listen to into the future because of the information discussed and expanded upon throughout. The host, Pete, thinks he is some sort of comedic genius (he isn’t) but his co-hosts are there to keep him somewhat in check. I am growing in my financial acumen by listening to this show so again, I will continue to listen. Even if it’s hate listening.

  • Decent show

    Good podcast. Damien Dunn is the ballast of the show. He gives the listener a feeling of trust. He’s laid back and seems to have an analytical approach. Kristen certainly adds a lot to the show. She has a great personality and adds a youthful perspective. Peters tries to add some comedy to the show. I believe that Damien and Kristen can certainly host the show themselves if Pete is out.
