Customer Reviews
Great Listen
I’ve enjoyed every interview except the Glenn Rushton interview. Found it very hard to listen to. Thought I was listening to a morning show on tv! I’m very neutral when it comes to Glenn, but it’s obvious that none of you guys are. A lot of assumptions were made. Would have been better to interview Jeff Horn and get it straight from the horses mouth. I’m keen on getting in insight into interesting peoples life, not a sunrise/morning show grilling. Other that that a great listen
Great guests & conversations
There has been some fantastic guests and candid chats. Ben & Matt do a great job keeping the conversations following.
Whilst I appreciate all the top guests are here because of Jeff’s connections, it would be great if Jeff stopped interrupting the convos for pointless reference a about himself which add no value and are usually out of context.
Otherwise, keep up the great work! 👍🏼
