Getting worse&fake good reviews
Why so little content about equity market? Then you should change the name to commodity trading podcast! Or just oil trading show!

This show has declined
I used to love listening to this show every week, but I got tired of Erik Townsend pushing a larger war with either the US or China…. End of the world, runaway inflation etc. etc each and every week. I stopped listening, but this was the first episode I’ve listened to in a year, and guess what hasn’t changed? His perspective.

Insufferable
As someone that has never rated any podcast below 5 stars I can’t stand the host and his constant pandering of his ignorant, biased opinions. I don’t know a single person that suffers through the whole podcast anymore. We all tune in for the guests, which happen to be the only redeeming part of this podcast. Stop shoving your political and market ignorance down our throats when great minds are talking. You’ve been consistently wrong on everything you spew for over a year with no hint of showing that you can pivot or actually be open minded. Do everyone a favor and just cut the podcast down to the guest segments already.

Great guests.. but have to hit skip every time Erik talks
Some great interviews.. but the host is so arrogant and biased it hurts to listen.. constantly pushing his views as 100% truths.. even when guest after guest present data/facts disproving his narrative. Thank god for fast forward!

David Webb as a guest.
Please consider having David Webb on as a guest. He is the author of the book, The Great Taking.

Quality decreases
This show has become biased and non professional, driving a certain political agenda

Love the commodity coverage and discussion
Hard to find quality commodity and energy discussion podcasts. This show has great guests and thoughtful discussions

Right wing politics and poor investing show
I listened to this show for six months as a contrarian viewpoint, but have recently stopped as they have been plugging cryptocurrencies and oil investing. Eventually a contrarian show has to prove out at least one useful investment, but this one has none and is starting to get more into Trump conspiracies and right wing propganda as people are starting to call out their money losing advice.

Great episode #369
As usual, you had another fantastic guest and Pippa presented a very compelling and cogent geopolitical analysis. She truly understands the strategic underpinnings of Chinese leadership involvement and intent using Russia as a proxy. Thank you for finding these experts and giving them the time to present their research. Another great episode #384 Incredible interview with Darius Dale and his highly structured analysis on the current macroeconomic landscape. Thank you

Must listen every episode, excellent interviews week in and week out

Quality every week
The combination of excellent guests and host commentary makes this a must-listen podcast.

Pippa Malmgren is a fraud
She shouldn’t be invited onto this show anymore as she’s just another D.C. area grifter making her income on daddy’s last name who himself was a grifter. So many of them in D.C. I guess she’s taken her act to London now.

Energy series is amazing!!!
Thank you for having a open and honest conversation

Most Comprehensive Analysis on Energy
Examining the past, present and FUTURE of energy, globally. Knowledgeable quests with the latest thought process on the trends and technologies. One missing area of the coverage is new Grid architectures leveraging new technologies to calibrate multi-sourced capture to storage and redistribution models…not to mention fault tolerant energy operational centers!!! Well done 👍🙏

New Macro Listener
I’ve been listening for a few months and have absolutely loved the quality of guests this podcasts interviews from a wide range of industries. All of it helps me see the economy and markets with a much better view and understanding.

underperformance
the show format and presentation is good but I question Erik’s understanding of certain topics. The move to write a book on cryptocurrency with no domain expertise is a head scratcher. If the host is really so good at managing his money then why sell a book?

Ditching this one
Been regular listener for years. Good guests. Townsend is annoying. Was able to ignore him going on about central bank digital currency constantly. But this year his complaints about American government and energy policy have made the show too political. Yes we have our problems, but I am thankful to live here rather than have to figure out how to escape an authoritarian regime.

Past its prime
I used to love MV but it’s increasingly gone off the deep end in 2022. Townsend knows about oil, but that’s where the useful part ends and the kookiness begins… Countless examples…he had to be told to stop talking about World War III earlier in the year; his obvious delight when the Anas Alhajji interview echoed his similarly off-piste views on energy doom and gloom and western economies getting screwed. He claims to not root for that stuff but his giddiness said it all…It’s pretty clear he holds fringe / borderline conspiracy theorist views. So even though I’m with him on the fundamentals / lack of capex / Eucalyptus paradox, professionals should go elsewhere for serious adult views. Worth listening to when they get Jim Bianco and a few other guests but it’s in spite of Townsend, not because of…hope they get the memo because the show used to be great.

Highly Insightful
Discovered the podcast a few months ago and have listened to every episode since. Highly insightful content with intelligent guests.

Perma bears
Once in a while had some interesting guests but seems like especially lately, just a parade of perma bears. Patrick does a decent chart review but I would not rate this as one of my top financial podcast.

Thought provoking and informative!
Gentlemen, thank you for producing the best macro-podcast around!

Terrific format
Long discussion with guest with download is good source of info and thinking on a specific area. Market wrap up with downloads is a very efficient overview of market segments. It should be acknowledged that all the people on the show have spoken clearly and that the audio is very professional.

Great podcast
This has quickly become one of my favorite podcasts. The team hosting the podcast and their guests are great.

Townsend’s Midlife Crisis
The guests continue to be excellent - Townsend, however, is descending into the ghetto of seething, slogans, epithets, and cliches that characterize today’s American middle-aged man. He tosses around “Biden” in this very predictable, unoriginal, eye-rolling contempt a la Fox News to appeal to what he presumes is his constituency of like-minded man-cave denizens. Sorry, some of us are still rich and still voting for Biden regardless of your middle-school popularity tactics. All this distraction is diminishing the actionable information available from this show as more and more time is given to what could be or should be on the political side.

Smart analysis & varied opinions
Erik is great and gets a wide array of smart guests. I never feel like I’m in an echo chamber, which is SUPER important. I have learned a TON on this show since I started listening in the pandemic. I never miss an episode.

Worth the time investment - generally strong guests, weak host.
Hosts are fairly unsophisticated thinkers but they generally source interesting, thoughtful and seasoned pros.

There is NO BETTER that I have Found
I look forward to it weekly. I do wish that they would do away with the Chart Books because more guests would be better.

Excellent interviewer
Funny to read critical comments about Eric. Does a great job. No reviewer could do anything near as good, I would guess. His guests are varied — some good, some not so good, IMO.

ERIK TOWNSEND is an arrogant host who can sound racist
… other than that the show is amazing… The guests on this show are always very inspiring … EURO DOLLAR university was one of the most enlightened pieces I have ever heard .. Listening to this show really gives you the feeling that you are learning something special, exclusive and cutting edge …. My only problem is Erik… super arrogant .. loves to call people idiots and obviously is anti Black Lives Matter even though he knows nothing about being black in America but freely criticizes us in the movement … Anyway keep up the good work and try and be less of a jerk

Editorials
Erik - your editorial on ignorance surrounding the threat of hyper-inflation was excellent. I vote for more editorials! Thanks for the great work.
Joseph Sickspack
Great perspective
Please end the chart book it’s worthless and every week we hear the same thing “this market is at a critical point” it’s nonsense. Fill the back half of the show with another guest but stop with the chart book

Well you could do better
I listen to every episode, but the host is a grumpy old man feeling everyone is stupid except him and whoever approves his views.
