stefzeck33Love the ShowBut hate the Exon commercials. Exon is white washing their pollution record and climate change denials for years. It is reason enough for me to cancel my subscription. Hope reconsider having them as sponsors. Thanks

obacker19Empowering, insightful and actionable! 🙌Whether you’re well established as someone who can translate creative energy into the impact you want to have on the world, or just getting started as a catalyst for change - this is a must-listen podcast for you! Adam and Adam do an incredible job leading conversations that cover a huge breadth of topics related to the ins and outs of living a life you can be proud of - with leaders who’ve actually walked the path. Highly recommend listening and subscribing!

Trevor92112Most helpful podcast I’ve come acrossI found this while searching for Richard Dawkins The Selfish Gene on YouTube. Since then, I’ve listened to just about everything else. These guys are very informative and very professional and I highly recommend this series.

dancer's heart💯!The current fragility by the young generation, will be their undoing. Loved the episode challenging the “great untruths” that our youth are being brainwashed with, The woke need to wake up! Spoiled white kids stirring the pot out of boredom- that pot is going to blow up in their delicate little faces

retroWithTheSauceWithKetchupNo 1 podcast of all timeI used to listen to everyday on my way to school, now I listen to it when I’m eating, going to sleep even when taking a dump. Keep up the good work guys.

Anna_M_042495Wasn’t a fan of podcasts until I found this oneI could never really get into podcasts until I discovered this one a few months ago. In just a short time I’ve listened to about 75% of all of the episodes. I’ve learned so much and really enjoy the synopsis that the guys give of each book - it’s become a goal of mine to buy and read all of the books that they cover. Amazing work guys, keep it up! Pumped to read your new book next year.

lwl103Bloody goodFantastic Banter guys! Keep it up

Davis, Whiskeyeffervescent and enlightening definitionLove the series, I love these aussies book recommendations and how they cliff notes it for me:)

DianeJL1619Great investment of timeWith a young family I have no time to read books these days but I am still keen to be intellectually stimulated and these guys are the best, I feel like I’m across all of these amazing insights that I use in my life. They’re also lovely to listen to! Thank you!!!
-
TAND never dieGrateful for this podcast!I’ve been commuting daily for past 2.5 years. I have saved hours of time because these guys pull the important points from the books, and do this in an artistic and entertaining way. What I have learned, and at times laughed at has allowed me to dig deeper into the books I find interesting. Applying what I have learned from this podcast has given me the bright idea to start my own business. I continue to look forward to all the book reviews and interviews. Thank you guys!
-
Doctor FuegoThese guys are the bomb!Wow. What more can I say? This guys are the definition of "keeping’ it real.” Must be in the Aussie DNA because you really relate to them as they review the books and apply these lessons to their own life and experiences. Keep up the great work. BTW, the explicit notice this there for a reason…
-
jpmnewsGreat stuff!Love these books, but they often say in 200 pages what they could’ve said in 25. Too much fat. This podcast is a phenomenal alternative. Keep it up!
-
heureuse21ooofAs with another reviewer, I came to the podcast for the Atomic Habits review. The hateful comments they made in passing about fat people, aka “whales” felt so gross. Bummer.
-
egdod17YikesStarted listening to Atomic Habits, was disgusted by shallow, cruel tangent about so-called fat whales who dare to be in public eating. Not interested in hearing more after such an ignorant, thoughtless tirade.
-
Matt W CAInfotainmentI’m a big fan. Great way to review books I’ve read. And learn stuff from ones I might read. And to learn stuff so I don’t have to read the whole book. These guys are/were me 20 years ago. Multiple times I have referenced things I’ve learned in conversation or in practice. Give it a try for a book you’ve already read a while ago or a book you’ve heard of.
-
1!MaximusI guess they aren’t for meI couldn’t get past the “whale comment” in the review if the Atomic Habits podcast. These just aren’t my people.
-
nathaniel09Insanely good podcast!I discovered these guys about a week ago and I’ve been binge listening to their show ever since. Everything about this podcast is perfect, they pick books that are super interesting and helpful for anyone, they’re funny without it getting in the way of having a serious discussion, and they’re very good at summing up the books they read and presenting them in digestible and cohesive packages. Super glad I found this. And I love their accents, as an American I think Australian accents are amazing.
-
ADSPACE4cheapThe Four Agreements episodeHoly hell my guy, PLEASE find another water bottle or glass to sip from m. You crushing and sucking on it sounds so oafish and disgusting. The fact that you did that into a microphone is even worse. Great book you covered though.

nyc teach 7Love these guys, smart Aussies with personalityThese two Adams make my 2 hour round trip commute actually something I now look forward to. As a NYC elementary school teacher in a very challenging school, I need all the help I can get. I am also an athlete, health nut, new age wannabe, self reflective, always looking to improve myself, socially, emotionally , financially kind of person. I don’t have time to read all the books that I would like to in order to improve myself personally and professionally. What I have learned in this podcast has helped me in all aspects of my life. I consider myself well read and knowledgeable. However I have been exposed to books, authors and concepts that have changed my life. Ideas and perspectives that have challenged my thinking, changed my teaching approach, made me a better person all around. Do you get my gist in how much I love these guys? Can’t wait for more... thank you Adam and Adam for enlightening me, making me laugh, keeping me company, giving me something to look forward to...new knowledge and new books to explore with you.
-
TheInvestorBoyThese guys will stand the test of time!Love, what I'm hearing here. I can tell how much the hosts have grown over the progression of the episodes and they do a great job here!
-
MO travelerEngagingA great review of self help books Often humorous and the back and forth between the two Adams keeps the listener engaged.

CobeyKYou’ll learn and you’ll laughI am so happy I stumbled upon these guys. Found them from the Easy Way to Stop Smoking review. Have been hooked ever since. The best part is the fact that they’re just two good friends who constantly crack jokes and all of this is on top of their amazing book reviews. They’re great st pulling out the golden nuggets of useful knowledge from the best and worst books. Being from the US I also love hearing their awesome accents and little language quirks. Every time I hear an “I love it” I smile. And now I’ll never hear “rooted” the same way. The episode on “The Laws of Human Nature” is pure gold. Guys, I wish you’d do longer episodes so we could hear more about your insights on the books!
-
JRL_IPhone4Great topics discussed / hard to understandI really like a lot of the topics discussed but unfortunately they are often difficult to understand as they both have a veeerrrry strong Australian accent. I keep having to rewind parts several times to understand what they said. Sometimes the laughing at their own jokes so much gets annoying but overall the podcasts are pretty good and I hope they improve over time.
-
EltoroaburridoExcellent podcast for any book lover!The Adam team has an excellent and effective way to convey the essence of the books they review. The recent review of the Laws of Human Nature was outstanding ! Their interviews with authors add more context to some of the books. I loved the interview with Dan Ariely. Lots of good humor. Keep up the excellent work, guys!
-
Gabrielle PNo BSTruth be told, these guys know what they're talking about. Check out their discussion with Seth Godin! But honestly, the list of incredible authors featured on this podcast is too long to count.
-
dnebinskiLove this format!I love podcasts and want to read more books.. boom, here we go! The cohosts are awesome. Really digestible content. Thank you!
-
Chuck WildeTwo Aussie Blokes!Love the straight forward format of the episodes. No Bs ads at the beginning or overlong intros. Reading the book itself is one thing, but I am capping at 15 pages a day -- I've always been a slow reader, probably always will be. And this podcasts let me get the jist of a book without feeling like I am a slow reader. The book summary author interview balance is really nice and you can tell these guys are putting in work to make this a great show. It's been around for a while, so they must really like what they are doing. Also, I find myself walking away with a cheeky Aussie accent :) Thanks for all the work guys, Love the show.

MJ in BermudaWhat you will learn - a lot.So I’m not the demographic for these guys. I’m an almost 50 year old African Caribbean woman who can do without some of their crap. However, I am a lifelong learner and these podcasts feature amazing books and you learn a ton. Plus even if from time to time these guys are full of crap, they are authentic and entertaining. Basically, I am an unlikely fan. Thanks guys. Highly recommended podcast
-
oregonbenefit2 Guys that Love to Read - Marvelous !Fascinating, Cerebral & Hilarious! Each episode I learn key things that make my life better & lead me to read books that change lives. Listen, Learn & Laugh!
-
GinyDLove the Show!This show is my main morning private time go-to. It has formed a big part of my morning. Makes it easy to decide on books I want to go ahead to read. I also love the fun way you review the books.
-
ChrdhsnsCan't listen to it yet...I want to. I love the idea. But the first thing I see in the show description is a typo! Book should be books. This could be a great podcast, but that one little thing casts doubt. I can't commit to another podcast with that kind of oversight. Not trying trying to sound pretentious. I REALLY want to listen because I think it's a great idea for a podcast. I'll check back in a week to see if it's fixed. Hope so!
-
HealthyBoyFantasticGreat podcast. Awesome way to recap a finished book with a podcast episode by them. Funny and insightful.
-
Yoyaster12654AMAZING!!Really really enjoy this podcast. You 2 are hilarious and insightful at the same time, very refreshing. The songs at the end are killer. Keep up the great work. Definitely recommended from the USA.
