Started listening to this show early on, they cover so many topics in finance, as well as provide good career advice that transcends finance jobs. They do a very good job on explaining extremely complex topics with wit and the right amount of depth for lay people and professionals alike. This is a must listen to podcast for people trying to get into the field, or for people just trying to keep up with the crazy markets these days.

After switching majors to finance in college I discovered this podcast. It helped me in the beginning understand the differences between finance career paths and the pros/cons of them all, and their guests always provide helpful insight into their field. Can’t say enough good things about this podcast, truly my favorite finance-based podcast, since they work hard to bring new and interesting guests and dive into new topics/areas that I haven’t seen any other podcasts cover. The “Skinny” episodes are also very helpful for keeping up to date on market activities (I love the bond market updates and analysis specifically since I’m less knowledgeable on it). All around great podcast!

When I started my MBA, I had no idea I’d be drawn to a career in finance. Coming from a non-finance background, I was overwhelmed by the number of potential career paths and the jargon-heavy nature of the field. That changed the moment I discovered The Wall Street Skinny.
Kristen and Jen break down complex topics in a way that’s both insightful and approachable. Thanks to their podcast, I’ve gained a solid understanding of different roles across finance, current trends, and how to navigate the industry. But more than that, their discussions have directly helped me stand out — in interviews, in class, and in conversations with professionals.
It’s more than just a podcast — it’s a mentor, a roadmap, and a confidence boost all in one. If you’re even remotely curious about finance, this should be your first stop.

As someone considering on going into finance, I learned a lot by listening to this podcast about the industry and what I might be getting myself into in the future and how I should prepare for it. The episode about the live 2008 recession was fascinating and it provides a different perspective about what happened from what you generally see on the news. And I really like that aspect of the podcast.
