Great blend of comedy and finance

Can personal finance be funny? No, but at least these guys try.

Also, I thought the show was great before, but adding Kristen has been a huge improvement.

Looking for financial entertainment got sexism

I have been a long listener of the show and usually found it very entertaining, but in a recent episode he decided to talk about how his 11 years old son is a better soccer player than the soccer players on his 14 years old daughter’s soccer team and decided to make it into a thing about how boys are superior athletes to girls.

No nonsense, but also nuanced

I have learned everything I know about finance by teaching myself, mostly using Pete the Planner. Through his guidance, we have a clear financial plan that let us feel comfortable as we expand our family and prepare to send children off to college. As an academic with zero financial background, but lots of interest in understanding things, I especially appreciate that his show doesn’t oversimplify complex financial issues.
