Thought Dr. Rich Castellano shared a very important detail. “When you tell people that they need to smile more they’ll actually resent being told to smile. What you have to do is you have to show up and you have to smile.” Keeps modern-day leaders accountable and effective when it comes to empowering their sales teams.

Matt has a ton of great interviews! Not only people you’ve heard of in everyday life, but also people you may not know but have a ton of valuable information to share. I’ve been listening to his podcast for about a year and have been able to implement a lot of the information into my own personal development journey.

I’ve started listening recently and I’m finding the show interesting and full of insights that are applicable to my life. However, I find the ad/sponsor placements more frustrating than in any other podcast I listen to. The ads seem to interrupt the interviewee mid-sentence every time. By the time the ads are over, I’ve forgotten the start of whichever sentence and I’ve lost my grasp on the topic of conversation. Editors, please listen and wait for a period!

I’ve moved the Grand Cayman and no longer have my accountability walking friends. We used to walk and talk every morning at 5a and I loved the company, conversation and connection. Now that I’m here, I needed a reason to get up and get moving. The variety of conversations and interesting topics is my new motivation! Thanks for sharing all these great interviews! I love your style and science based approach.

Matt is a great interviewer. I enjoy Listening to Dr. Jessica Tracy. She was very clear and informative!Thank you!

Matt - great podcast - thanks!! 🙏Ross

I stumbled on this podcast from YouTube, specifically Robin Dreeke’s episode. I think Robin’s work is phenomenal, and so I decided to check out this podcast to see what other useful life advice / wisdom I could obtain. Based off the one YouTube video I listened to, I’m sure I won’t be disappointed. This is a podcast worth putting in your daily listening rotation.

The Science of Success has quickly become a standout favorite of mine! I’m consistently impressed with the engaging conversations, insightful content, and actionable ideas. I truly learn something new every time I tune in. Highly recommend!

Quality content. Insightful & extremely useful information. Great hosts, amazing guests, superb conversations & extremely interesting & varied topics.

You have an amazing voice, the guests are brilliant as well as you. You ask so many interesting questions and I learn so much from this podcast! Thank you!! Can’t wait for more!!

I tried to like this podcast but this guys voice irritates me!

Thank you.

This podcast has such a wonderful variety of content. It educates the listener on how to improve different aspects of their lives, rather than just one segment of life. From Adam Grant to Charles Duhigg and Perry Marshall. It’s a great listen while driving, walking my dogs, or any everyday task.

Corrupt entities knew this “science” long ago - Edward Bernays…. NO ethics, of course! Great interview!

Great food for the brain, good guests and entertaining positivity for my day!

This podcast has consistently great content and guests! Really enjoyed the episode with Gay Hendricks and Carol Kline about the science of luck. Their incredible stories of how they created their own luck, and how we can too, was so insightful. Also love the episode with Annie Duke! She’s amazing and always get amazing takeaways!

Regardless of where you are on your journey to achieve success - Matt and Austin are must-listen voices along the way. Whether you’re looking for actionable advice to break through a current plateau, or just need a reminder that moving towards your goals doesn’t have to be a herculean effort every day - they’ll help you get there. Highly recommend listening and subscribing!

I loved listening to science of success until about 2 years ago when you guys started experimenting with the change of host. This show was great till it was hosted by Matt. His questions, his tone and pace everything was of such a great value. New host just spoiled it for me. The show is about science of success and ironically they have not thought about the psychology and impact of changing the host!!

Great! Thank You for all You guy’s and gal’s do!

I like the content, but the ads are really disruptive. They come in the middle of a sentence.

This podcast has really helped me in my personal development journey! He is a great interviewer that asks thought provoking questions. Great guests. Great content. Great value.

Conversations with scientist and leaders in areas of positive psychology, perseverance active listening empathy - traits necessary of all leaders, and more than just having the highest IQ - love Joe Navarro discussion on mylenation and Dr. Sasha's conversation on balanced approach to positive psychology. I listen on my daily walks and take with me in my work day leading a team of 15 to stay connected to them, while also handling pushing initiatives forward and managing projects at leadership level. Often doubting my abilities or concerned about what others think, how they feel, am I smart enough - all those things we as leaders fear. So helpful and practical tips to stay present, focused, positive engaged

Sit back and enjoy this show. Truly insightful. Highly recommend.

What I love so much about the Science of Success is the exposure to top thought leaders and evidence based practices related to success. They make you think about the unexoected and challenge you to take the road less traveled on your journey.

I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you for creating such an impactful podcast! I believe that we all have a voice that deserves to be heard. Thank you for putting this into the world! BE UNBROKEN! @MichaelUnbroken

This podcast motivates me to get out there and take the chance to ASK for what I want!

The guests and topics are critical for anyone who wants to influence behavior. Great podcast!

Try it out , if you like these topics at all, then you will LOVE this!

Matt Bodnar knows what he’s talking about. His approach to productivity and personal development is backed by science, and he knows how to break down complex concepts into bite-sized chunks.

I found his information on the Holocaust and how to debunk things very interesting and helpful. He was against political correctness and yet was for it. I did find it interesting that he had a lot to say against conservatism. But nothing from the other side. I’m conservative and I’m vaccinated. I didn’t think his argument was good enough to require vaccination. Vaccinated or not it still spreads. You’re not protecting your neighbor getting vaccinated. It’s interesting that he used his idea to let everyone speak and then wants to shut them down legally. If he used arguments that weren’t political he’d get his ideas better across to people. I tried to listen but he continued on the Democrat agenda. Very disappointing. Why did he challenge his employee? I wonder if they felt intimidated. I knew before he said it he was pro choice just in his language “fetus” . Interesting that he wanted fairness in conversation yet completely took one side.

Matt, normally, I like your content, but I have to say this was your worst interview. This man talked about level headed thinking, yet ALL he did was bash conservatism and promote left leaning thinking and pro government bias. I do appreciate you having someone on the show with a different viewpoint with interesting ideas, but this one was slanted heavily towards left thinking without you presenting the other side. Not your best show.

Matt, host of the Science of Success podcast, highlights all aspects of self-improvement, growth and more in this can’t miss podcast! The host and expert guests offer insightful advice and information that is helpful to anyone that listens!

Found this podcast because I always heard my husband listening and now immobsesssd . Love to listen to it when I’m feeling unmotivated or not being productive and it just gets me going

This podcast is phenomenal!! I have recommended it to so many friends and family members. Great guests and such relevant topics. I can’t say enough good things about this podcast. Do yourself a favor and subscribe now!!

Matt does a phenomenal work. Educational and personal development podcast. Just outstanding! Listen to these podcasts, you will love them.

Podcast always gets me thinking how I can apply what I learned from information provided.

I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you for creating such an impactful podcast! I believe that we all have a voice that deserves to be heard. Thank you for putting this into the world! BE UNBROKEN! @MichaelUnbroken

This podcast definitely makes the top short list — its one of the most valuable resources on a range of interesting topics with leaders in their respective industry. Matt has good intellectual positive energy with engaging questions in a down to earth vibe. For sure recommend 10/10 and leaves me with more insight than most other podcasts out there.

I love that I already know some of the guests and research based work, so I’m excited to see it’s now a podcast. It’s a great reminder, educational and so stimulating and validating! Thank you!

I really use to love this podcast but it has gotten too political for me. Sad this is literally happening everywhere you go when the podcast has nothing to do with podcasts.

i love this podcast. matt has the most interesting and inspiring conversations with many wise guests and i’ve learned so many useful mindset shifts and tools for growth and productivity. highly recommend!!

Five years after listening to the SoS podcast for the first time, I am now a form believer that real behavior change begins with changing how you think about successes and setbacks. I can say that his show has introduced me to experts whose perspectives and teachings have set me on a path to greater happiness, confidence and financial security. If you’re new to the podcast, I strongly recommend you begin with the Dr. Amy Cuddy episode. One episode of one podcast can’t change your life but if you’re struggling with a degree self doubt that’s keeping you from doing the work you’re capable of and being the kind of person you were born to be, Matt Bodnar and Dr. Amy Cuddy will absolutely change how you look and think about it. And once you start doing that, you may find yourself, as I did, amazed at your own power to change.

This is literally my favorite podcast ever. It’s so dynamic. The range of topics they cover is truly fascinating. They interview people who really teach me & help me to actualize my full potential. I absolutely love it. Thanks for everything guys!! 😍

The topics are exactly what I needed and very intriguing. Thank you!

Matt is an incredible host who always speaks on relevant topics! Not to mention keeps the show enaging and informative! I highly recommend the listen!

Hard to believe access to these guests are all together in one place. And it could be a study in great interview questions.

This show is the best place to hear stories of creative businesses that have gone from idea to execution to growth. The stories are interesting and fun and the host highlights all of the nuggets of wisdom, often times summarizing how to implement those for yourself. Highly recommend whether you are starting a business or just loooking for entertainment.

These podcasts change my life and walkways motivate me to be my best self. I love listening to them !

Just listened to Matt interview Michael Sorenson on Extraordinary Relationships. As a seasoned professional, I can tell you this interview was good, very good. Plan to tune in for more. Thank you, Matt!

I don’t wish to write an unkind review of someone who’s learning - podcasting isn’t easy, but in its current state the new interviewer makes me want to shut the podcast off, even when I’m interested in the guest. I agree with reviews saying the new interviewer isn’t prepared, even sound wise, self serving or just misplaced commentary, nauseating promotions - all around it now feels like an impromptu conversation in a dorm room, not in a good way. If Matt doesn’t return, I’ll be a lost listener. Typically, I like the content, but do agree it has a fantastic opportunity to go deeper than the generic mainstream tips and concepts that we’re oversaturated with.
