Customer Reviews
The broiness is the whole point
MFM is probably my favorite podcast to listen to. No other show hosts have made me laugh out loud as many times as Sam and Shaan. A lot of people complain about the broiness banter that’s very common on the pod. It’s kind of the whole point of the show now and if you don’t like it you can go to literally any other podcast. When I’m not in the mood to listen to two adult frat bros talk about utterly random businesses, I go listen to indie hackers. It’s not a big deal.
Came here because Sam told me to lol
Love this podcast. Keep it up fellas!
No small boy stuff is an understatement
If you want to know what's on the minds of entrepreneurs then this podcast is for you. Sam and Shaan provide actionable content to get you thinking about what you can do in the world of business. They are extremely relatable and build value with each episode. Sam, I would share a Sodastream with you anytime and am confident that Shaan will fix his office soon. Check them out.
