What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I've been listening for a few years and I'm still hooked. Sam and Shaan are great together and they talk about business in a way that feels accessible to me, while others are a bit too "inside baseball." Even with their success, they're still curious and enthusiastic, almost like beginners, which I really enjoy.

I’m a female attorney and small business owner and I wish I would’ve had this podcast when I was in college and still trying to figure out what to do. I love how many different ideas are thrown in on how to be successful. Love the banter and the random history lessons thrown in between. I think the theme that continues to be apparent no matter the founder or amount of money they have is they all wish to live a more normal life with family which is a great reminder you don’t need a million to be rich. I’m constantly sharing episodes to my husband or my employees.

Aolsen15 · Mar 2025

I got into entrepreneurship a bit late in life and have found the stories told through the interviews on this podcast truly inspiring and educational! I can’t get enough of this podcast and can’t wait for the release of each episode. Great job Sam and Shaan!

Lil'lu · Mar 2025

I’m one of their self-professed “tens of women” followers. I like that they take as much time as it takes to go deeper with their interviewees rather than regurgitating the same tired questions everyone else asks. And they try to remember to bring the conversation back to how the interviewee actually made their first break, a la the title of their podcast. They’re in the thick of it, spending time with the highest earners and giving us a behind-the-scenes look at what rich life really looks like for these people and how they got and stay there. As to be expected from any of the finance bro pods, they almost exclusively interview men and would never deign to touch on the topic of lifting women up or acknowledging the role their spouses play in making both family and rich life possible. But there are great feminist finance pods out there for us women working to leg up. It’s just not these guys’ audience. One star off for the compulsive Musk fan-boying. Don’t be afraid to stay true to your roots, boys, and fly that geeky, compassionate flag proud on occasion.

Hearing these guys talk about being excited to consume raw milk because it has warnings on it declaring Not Safe for Human Consumption and that appeals to their rebellious souls has me losing faith for humanity. What a deeply irresponsible thing to advocate for to such a large audience when the research leaves no room for doubt that raw milk is exceedingly dangerous.

Emilyjoyphotos · May 2025

I like the content but ABSOLUTELY despise that you do not have a proper introduction for the guest. I want to know their name, background and what company they are from. You start your podcast off with nothing to inform the listener of who the guest is!
