Steve Eisman and The Master Investor Podcast with Wilfred Frost are all I listen to. Steve Eisman I first learned of like most was from The Big Short. I didn’t know much about him till I started seeing him on CNBC. I loved his direct and confident approach to questions and discussions. Steve isn’t trying to win you over with silliness or fawning over a person he is talking to, he does it with facts and conviction. If you want buy this or buy that there are other shows. Listen to Steve if you want to know concerns or if a company has lost its way. His guests are top notch as well. If I could create the perfect one time podcast show it would have Warren Buffett, Stanley Druckenmiller, Howard Marks, and Steve Eisman with Wilfred Frost hosting.
ECOTUS · Jul 2026
The content is substantive and I want to like this, but it is so hard to listen to because Steve just talked over and interrupted the guest repeatedly. I don’t know how the guests don’t just leave or quit talking. Please please don’t take pride in being rude or interrupting people and give your guests the opportunity to actually answer your questions.

Great interview with Helima Croft. Thank you! I now have a better understanding of the game board in Iran what’s playing out, the players and how it could play out and why and the ramifications and benefits. Two weeks in a row- Steve, great totally relevant and out of the park results. Best!
Toni Noto · Mar 2026
I love how Steve teaches his audience how markets work. That is the test to discover if someone really understands what they’re talking about. They must be able to explain it in a way that a high school student could grasp.
FringeFatale · Dec 2025
I listen to the podcast mostly for the guests. What I can’t stand about the podcast is Steve’s constant talking over guests. If he likes to hear his voice so much, why even have guests on?
