Recent Reviews
  • Kékcsillag
    Great content, bad presentation
    I like the content in general, and like Rob Armstrong but find this little jüde boy Aiden Reiter super-annoying with his neurotic superfast talking, projecting this “I know it all” insecure little boy delivery. It’s just impossible to listen to for any extended period. I will unsubscribe.

    Almost
    Great interest in subjects, relevant — but too much tea chit chat and pointed comments lol - woulda subscribed but no
  • DeanBompensaro
    Please leave Pushkin
    Podcast is great but Gladwell is a scam artist, you should find a new platform
  • NeverBored.
    I never miss an episode
    In depth analysis and congenial discussion in easy to understand language.
  • moving on-missu
    It’s a no
    Not worth your time. Talk without substance
  • bamiller
    Worst of FT’s podcast offerings
    Poorly researched, ridiculous commentary. I assume FT will shed this embarrassment.
  • Dusty Baker Street Irregulars
    Add This to Your Queue
    This is one of the best general finance/economics related podcast you’ll find. The host and regular guests have great rapport and are quite adept at simplifying complex ideas.
  • capn ch
    This has quickly become a must-listen…
    …In my feed. Ethan anchors a great group of rotating commentators like Katie and Robert (when he’s taking a break from his real job of writing about Men’s fashion).
  • Austin Owl
    Best markets podcast
    Smart, witty and entertaining take on what’s happening in financial markets.
  • Eric Apfel
    Thoughtful and insightful
    Unhedged is one of the only reasons I have a premium FT subscription with the other being the Lex column. The unhedged crew is my first read in the morning. This podcast shouldn’t be free. We’re lucky it is.
  • langabean
    Essential listening
    This is just the kind of show I need in my life. financial news delivered in a fun and energetic way. Finance is not boring. Why do so many people make it sound as though it is!!
