Listener Reviews

I really enjoy listening to these guys, they are down to earth and have very interesting content. The show is great and easy to listen to.

I listen to every single episode as they really get the brain churning with new ideas, investment ideas...ect. Favorite podcast to listen to while working.

Whether you’re deep in the start up/tech world or just getting started this podcast is worth you listening. Shaan and Sam are great personalities who jump from topic to topic smoothly. Highly entertaining but also extremely informational. Highly recommend.

If you are interested in business you should check out My First Million. The hosts, Shaan and Sam, both have experience building big companies. The advice they provide is backed by experience. The business ideas they spitball will get your creative juices flowing. Also the guests they have on are just as knowledgeable about building big businesses. Oh, and the show is hilarious. You can tell they’re having a blast. Just a good listen all around.

These guys are amazing. This is for any type of entrepreneur. You don’t have to be in the tech space for it to be applicable. I own a construction company and this podcast keeps my fire burning to grow.

This is a phenomenal podcast for inspiration and about learning new business topics. Feedback for the team- more Billy of the week and more boring business breakdowns!

My First Milton is One of the most informative shows about business out there!

1) you guys are great with finding ideas and breaking them down and explaining how to start them2) the fact that both of you have different characters and approach is coolThe only not so good thing ill say is sometimes you make it sound so easy !

It’s so entertaining to hear these two successful dudes brainstorm on big brain ideas and bring in very interesting guests- I’m hooked

10/10 podcastWorth your time

Keep up the good work boys

The only podcast I’ve ever listened to every episode of and look forward to each new one!

Shaan and Sam are, in fact, a couple of the brightest tools in the shed. Each episode they manage to strike up a great conversation without making it feel too uptight. Man, when you’re listening to their banter, you feel like joining in too. (I propose a Clubhouse session with some of the die-hard listeners) Keep up the great work!  🔥

Love you guys, the ideas, and conversations. Feels like I'm hanging out with good friends and talking shop

Started listening a couple of months into the pandemic and it’s become a favorite of mine for the past 10 months, much needed during covid. These guys are totally different from what’s out there - they’re direct, say what other people are too uncomfortable to say, and consistently put out great info. Love it!

love Sam and Shaan’s podcast, no longer feel like it’s a secret, but appreciate the great work guys. very open about their businesses and thoughts- very inspiring.

Great podcast for college students interested in business

I've been reading the Hustle newsletter for years and now have found the "How I made my first million! I not only listen to each episode but sometimes I listen to some of them more than once. They are filled with tons of actionable steps and the latest in trends, hacks, case studies, etc! I've not only saved a ton of cash in my own business (matcha.com) but I've saved a ton of case using their hacks, knowledge, case, guest information. It's like a cheat sheet for the future!

Absolute best business podcast going.

There’s so much in this show it’s really a great educational experience for listeners. Both Sam and Shaan are great together. Different vibes but that work well combined. I frigging love this pod and look forward to each new episode!!

Sam and Shaan create a low barrier of entry and humble environment that even my partner, who could care less about venture/entrepreneurship content, stop to listen and ask questions about the topics these two discuss. I’m a serial side hustler with a demanding FT job and the raw curious nature of this show is exactly what I need to keep pushing into the 13th hour.Why 4 stars? I don’t think it’s THEE one stop shop for all startup junkies. There are a decent amount of assumptions and “stretches” on some topics that more analytical listeners may be turned off on. That said, I love it and look forward to listening every week!

Both Saan and Sam are extremely insightful and present real, actionable insights every week. Saan is one of the best storytellers/explainers I’ve come across in the tech/Entrepreneurship space.Sam has a bold and audacious style coupled with practical, common sense advice. I met my business partner in Trends. The entire community is dope.

Each episode always leaves me thinking big thoughts. The energy, wit, and enthusiasm for biz is contagious. Hands down my fav podcast.

I drove up and down the entire length of Thailand on a motorbike, and this show saved me on a daily basis. Thanks for making me think of capitalism while staring at the wonders of nature!
