My favorite startup podcast
Smart, authentic, and just fun. This is for idea people and operators. Great mix of topics and guests. As a founder I get ideas and insights from every episode.
Great and FUN podcast for entrepreneurs
I listen to a lot of podcasts about startups and entrepreneurship in general and I have to say this is now easily my favorite one. Sam and Shaan are a constant stream of ideas and provide HUGE VALUE for free in each episode. I have recommended this podcast to more friends than any other podcast. My favorite part is how they make listening to business ideas really fun. Well done guys!
🐐 pod
If I could inject this podcast straight into my jugular, I would. Do yourself a favor. Get into your car right now, pull onto the nearest freeway, and just drive. Put this podcast on and don’t stop driving until you’ve listened to every single episode. When you’ve listened to them all, pull your car off the road and walk to the nearest town. Congratulations, you’re now the best entrepreneur in that town. All because of this podcast. Now go sell some arm-long wieners and make us proud.
Authentic
I enjoy the show and appreciate the unfiltered, informal tone when you talk about your experiences and activities.
Brain Food
Proven, successful entrepreneurs who are transparent about what they’ve built and the ideas they have. We’re lucky this is free!
Listen to this pod
Great insights and a lot of fun to listen to. Pair this with Trends.co community and I can keep a pulse on so many opportunities.
This podcast has become my favorite
I absolutely love this podcast. I came for the ideas and I stayed for the banter!
Five stars
Since subscribing last year, I haven’t missed an episode. Don't change a thing
Casual approach to complex topics
I’ve been listening for a little more than 6 months and have really enjoyed how Shaan and Sam approach business and investing. The causal back and forth, diving deeper into each other’s thought processes about the episode’s topic allows me to critically think about the subject matter. Other podcasts are informationally based with no real dive into the why, but more the how. Which is why I am really enjoying My First Million. Keep up the great work!
If you don’t listen you’re missing out!
Great podcast...LOTS of info presented with an entertaining delivery! Thanks guys!
Great listen!!
Great podcast learning about interesting businesses I wouldn’t have found out about without this podcast.
The best
I listen to a ton of podcasts...hands down MFM is the best of the best. Very motivating and entertaining...I learn a ton each and every episode. Keep up the great work guys!
Fantastic
Keep it up guys, the deep dives on the origins of founders, the ideas, and advice are all top notch.
Motivating and insightful
Listening to episodes regularly keeps me inspired in my grind. Looking forward to hearing the story behind the business you bought for the college grad. Update us sooner on the progress instead of waiting a year!
The only podcast I look forward to listening to
Committed subscriber to The Hustle and My First Million here! Personally listening as a nonprofit c-suite exec looking to get a glimpse into the interests of donors who could give to organizations on a transformational level. Love the info I’ve found in this podcast, and truly enjoy listening to Sam and Shaan!
Awesome show!
I listen to every episode
Best podcast
I listened to 20+ podcasts... and this is by far the best one i listen to. Trust me when i say it’s worth a listen.
MFM - The BEST Podcast period.
A new take on podcasting in the business segment and podcasts in general. The transparency between Shaan and Sam is refreshing and My First Million is quickly becoming a daily addiction. Investing, Crypto, Startups, and more. Check it out.
So much value!
I have been listening since day one and always can’t wait for the next episode. If someone told me that two dudes were going to just riff on what they thought was cool and interesting I would’ve said no thanks on face value but Shaan and Sam have a great back and forth and very different styles and attitudes which work well together and make for a cool listen. The main, most important point, is that the value they bring per episode is really amazing and they do it in a very easy to understand and digest way. It is an idea factory, inside look into Silicon Valley, business in general, and a fun listen all rolled into one. Highly recommend!
These are the guys you want to listen to
Forget boring stuffy business podcasts. Shaan and Sam explain complex—and timely—topics and make them relatable, attainable and entertaining. For anyone interested in what’s going on in crypto, NFTs, weird entrepreneurial flexes, side hustle ideas, etc. this is for you. Even if you’re not an entrepreneur, which I’m in, there’s a lot to unpack here. I refused to listen to any podcasts before my boyfriend introduced me to this one in March 2020 and I haven’t missed one since. Keep up the good work, guys!
My favorite podcast
Ever since I found this podcast it quickly became my favorite. I never miss an episode.
Best business podcast
It’s just fun and interesting, which is tough to do in a business podcast.
Shaan, Abreu, and Sam (SaaS) are 3 peas in a Pod
I’ve been listening to this Pod since day 1 when it was only Shaan interviewing guest. They have pivoted this pod into something I listen to everyday while I work/drive/run. They have so much knowledge and know give non-bias content. Keep on pushing Fellas!
Excellent source of ideas!
One of the only two podcasts I listen to weekly. Top notch topics and great ideas!
Listened to every episode...
... but all of Sam’s announced “improvements” are all things I hate about other podcasts/media. I guess we’ll see how it goes.... 😬
Great archive
If you’re looking to build a business, start about 10 episodes back and go in reverse. Absolute gold. 5 stars. Unfortunately they changed the topic to “My 100th Million” and now spend episodes talking about things like starting your own rolling fund and how if you’re famous and connected you can get in on pyramid schemes before the dumb money gets taken. Less useful for me.
Motivating
I’ve struggled with getting the motivation to expand after COVID recovery. This pod is helping to get me jazzed about ideating new ideas and striving to grow more. Thanks to the guys for keeping it real and interesting every week.
Ideas for Days
If you have a note on your phone with all the cool business ideas you want to start, this pod right here is your new jam. It’ll sting a little at first as you realize how amateurish your ideas are or how infrequently you come up with new ones. That’s ok — come up your game. There’s so much to love about MFM, but I’ll just call out the velocity. The quantity AND quality of business concept analysis from Sam
It’s taking me so long
To undo my association of Sam’s voice with Shaan’s and vice versa. Maybe have some way of preventing this association so I’m not living my whole lie a lie.
All 4 stars are for Sam
Just listened to the pod about The Hustle getting acquired and Shaan won’t stop talking about himself for more then 10 seconds to let Sam or the guest talk. I’m happy for him that he loves himself so much but it’s not good for the pod. I’ve been listening for a long time so this isn’t a one and done review.
