Listener Reviews
great show i recomend to everyone
This one always have interesting podcast, never a dull moment it's part of my friday go tos and it cheers me up no matter how bad the markets are or my day is going.
I’m confused
I don’t understand why The Compound & Friends is a podcast but not the regular Compound with Josh & Michael. I’d like to be able to listen to The Compound instead of going on YouTube. What’s the deal???
Insightful Quote by Josh
“Look at this f$&@‘n world you’ve built, it’s crumbling, it doesn’t apply” 20 something ur old traders of crypto and meme stonks. Stuck w crap jobs/pay/benefits, and eventually, an unplayable tab they didn’t run up…. I tend to agree w them. Air money it is!
General review
I think this podcast is so entertaining. It feels like people sitting in a living room talking authentically. I always learn something, and while the cast is far more knowledgeable than me, I never feel like I’m being talked down to.
Can be great when they have a grip
Dope charts was great. If you want to hear 4 clueless people sitting around guessing how the market works listen to 60/40 - which was aimless. Would have been better from Shake Shack
Down to earth Josh is great
I am a young investor and have loved listening to Josh and following him on CNBC when he is on. He reminds me of my dad always telling me to do nothing in times of exuberance or extreme pessimism. I have read his book as well and it’s great! He is the real deal and so true and authentic. However the podcast with Dan Nathan and Dow Jones girl, was just awkward. Definitely should have been on at different times. Her sense of humor just is too out there. Would have loved to just hear Dan Nathan solo on the show.
Maybe just have one guest?
Love the show! Also the content that Michael and Josh put out on YouTube on Tuesdays is excellent. Honestly some of the best things that came out of the last year plus. Just listened to the 9/17 episode though, and there just seems to be too much going on. Too much talking over each other, and the standup routine Haley was going with was starting to get irritating. Too much of an act versus an intellectual conversation. Obviously you got to entertain so tough balance, don’t mean to be overly critical, but it stood out to me this time. Looking forward to next week, thanks guys!
Your boy JB
Josh cuts through it. He's an expert on human nature and gets to the essence of the important subjects of the day.
Great show
Funny and informative. Terrific banter between the host(s) and guests. My only criticism is that the words “like” and “right” are used entirely too much.
Very insightful opinions
I love this show and the strong convictions that are shared. I hope that this show will continue as-is for years to come.
Best type of guys to listen to talk shop
Downtown Josh Brown and Michael Batnick are no-nonsense, rational investors and all around cool dudes (listen to me talk about them as if we’re buddies). Not worried about sounding smart or pumping their own interests, these guys offer a glimpse into the word of sensible investing and financial topics.
Love the podcast ; too many voices at times
I really enjoy listening to this podcast and the animal spirits podcast with Ben and Michael. They provide interesting insights and random anecdotal stories. My one criticism is that they have too many people on some episodes and it becomes hard to listen . To me the max should be 3 voices. Overall great podcast regardless. A+
