Listener Reviews

Talking Real Money
Informative and interesting
Very informative and entertaining podcast
I enjoy podcasts in my walks and about a year ago I started listening to Talking Real money. Practical and down to earth investing advice.
Excellent podcast
Love listening to these gentlemen.
Great
Great podcasts!! I listen while driving. Lively conversations!!
Great investing info, to the point + a dose of fun!
Tom and Don provide great info on various investing topics, very knowledgeable and they make sure anything they are not 100% sure about, to look it up.
It's the show I look for daily.
The show is consistent with the same investment strategy found in books I consider reputable. Though it was the show's constant education that made me comfortable to finally implement a diversify portfolio. It's the show I look for daily.
Straightforward investing podcast
Love listening to Don and Tom. They give easy investing advice and they are very knowledgeable. Also entertaining. Keep it up guys! Thanks!
Common Sense Advice
I love the common sense advice Don and Tom give for do it your-selfers and novice investors alike. Proponent’s of low cost, diversified investing, they advocate for “slow and steady wins the race” verses the latest get rich quick scheme. It’s fun to hear their banter while doling out sage advice.

Sound research driven investing guidance
I have listened to a lot of financial/investing podcast and radio shows. Talking Real Money provides great advice/guidance that can be backed up with academic research. The information is presented so that layman can understand all the while increasing the knowledge of the listener. I have recommended this podcast to my friends and my son.
Enjoy The Common Sense and Humor
I really enjoy the chemistry of this podcast team! The common sense, simply approach and easy going banter of this team is a weekly treat on my evening walks with my dog. I take several mental notes during each listen! Thank you and keep up the great work!
Advocate for us
I enjoy listening to these guys because they advocate for us and our well-being (A la Clark Howard) rather than trying to steer listeners into expensive products.
Easy to understand education
Calling or writing in and receiving a response is really easy. The hosts don’t “talk down” with their responses; instead, they dumb things down which make learning and understanding easy. I wish they’d cut down on the music or at least greatly lower the volume as it’s jarring. But this is one of my favorite money related podcasts.
Still learning at age 68
When you are young one seems to believe they know everything (like I did). Since I started listening to komo news then the podcast I have learned so much about investing. Luckily I saved for 35 years so I am “ok”, but now I’m learning how to transition to retirement and keep my $$ working for me. Thanks Tom and Don
Great podcast
Great podcast delivering sound advice with a touch of humor. Thanks for all that you do!

My daily podcast!
I have listened to many podcasts about money and investing…. Tom and Don are the best! Highly recommend.
Great Podcast!
Hands down, this is the best financial podcast available. Thank you, Tom and Don!
Informative
You can learn a great deal about investing from this podcast…if you can withstand the rapid-fire bad jokes, severely outdated references, thick-as-molasses sarcasm and regular tech issues.Update: Hearing you read my review on the show was comedy gold. I’m so glad you both took my review in the intended tongue-in-cheek tone. Right after, you transitioned into talking about some scam “back in the day” of selling pay phones. Pay phones?! You guys are killing me! Keep up the great work, Tom and Don… in that order. :)
Listen and Learn
Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge with us. Important money management concepts and strategies discussed in an understandable, actionable and entertaining bits of conversation and spitballing🧡 Love it.
They make investing simple
In between dry humor and bad dad jokes, Don and Tom give straightforward saving and investment advice to those of us who lack financial literacy as well as many super-investors that simply need a tweak in their portfolio. Either way - they always hit their goal of saving listeners money in fees and hidden commissions. I never skip an episode. (More Paul Merriman guest visits, please!!)
Refreshing and Magnetic!
Talking Real Money has a fresh and magnetic vibe- that’s RARE in the investment teaching space (at least for those teaching about REAL money). These guys are funny, knowledgeable, straight-forward, they keep it super light they’re prolific! They podcast dang-near 6 days a week, what?! Listening to Talking Real Money is a no-brainer- check ‘em out✅
Best Investing Podcast
Don and Tom provide an entertaining discussion of the major issues people face around money and investing. They keep it simple and safe to apply to the majority of people. No hot trends, gossip or trends, they have time-tested principles to protect and grow your wealth. Highly recommended!
Love this podcast!
I started listening to these two after they started doing regular podcasts with Paul Merriman, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Don and Tom are straight shooters who know what they’re talking about and give straightforward, honest, and helpful advice. I listen to their podcasts every day and I am also working my way through the older ones. I’ve learned a ton from them, they really help small/individual investors make smart decisions with their money. Highly recommended!
Great advice!
I’ve been listening to the podcast for 1.5 years now. Don and Tom are great! Not trying to sell you anything and they provide you with the knowledge for a great future. There is no better financial advice out there.
