Mike Jablon ,

Jill on money, great guest

I’m a weekly listener, Jill on money was a great guest this week. BTW, I’m listening to this while driving my Toyota Camry hybrid.

JMS32205 ,

Really enjoyable listen. Great host chemistry.

A must listen with every new download. Good guys that know what they’re talking about.

Juan Peso ,

Best of the best…

Ben has emerged as the leader in the star studded Ritholtz Group. Sidekick Duncan who provides “Dunkin’ On Duncan” opportunities for Ben is the perfect compliment.
