I really appreciate how the podcast features user experience research leaders from all types of organizations. It’s an entertaining and insightful way to quickly understand best practices and trends across the industry. Early in my career, it helped me grow my skills and mindsets regarding applied research. Now, it’s exciting to learn from other leaders who share their approaches to org design and evolving the discipline.

I absolutely love this podcast. Always insightful without being too heavy or overwrought. Steve is a skilled interviewer…which makes sense!

This podcast has been breathing life into my experience as a researcher for years now. The conversations Steve has with folks remind me that corporate folks are just people, that researchers are fun to talk with, and that we all have a varied background and approach to doing what we do. Also love listening to this podcast when I have job interviews coming up- gets me very excited and gives me great ideas to share.

I recently discovered Dollars to Donuts podcast and have been enjoying the content. I learn something new each time I listen. My compliments! ~Chris G.

So glad Dollars to Donuts is back! I started listening back in 2020 when I wanted to upskill in research, and possibly pivot from content design. Not only is it insightful and interesting content; I have applied what I learned in my day-to-day. My favorite episode is #22 with Vicki Tollemache of Grubhub. She talks about researchers being educators who bring a richer, deeper understanding.

I've been getting deeper into design and listening to somebody champion UX research is SOOOO refreshing

I’ve been listening to Dollars to Donuts since I started my career in UXR, and it’s been hands down the best resource for me. It’s provided inspiration and best practices and made me feel plugged into the broader research community. Highly highly recommend to any researcher at any point in their career. You’ll learn so much.

Steve Portigal wrote the definitive book on Interviewing Users. He continues to lead the UX Research community through his fun and educational podcast, Dollars to Donuts. There is no better resource to keep abreast of UX Research trends and strategies than this timely series of interviews with global researchers. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced researcher, you will learn something new from each episode.

Steve Portigal is a favorite of mine when learning and teaching people how to do User research. This takes it a step further; interviewing heads of research departments from Citrix to ADP to Goldman Sachs and on the flip side, Etsy. There’s no “why are we here” here, just great content.

I finally started listening to the Dollars To Donuts podcast this morning. Steve really knows how to interview people - he always has the right follow-up question. The podcast is great for the content and for observing interviewing style. As an agency person it’s great to hear what’s going on in enterprise UX research.
