PODCAST PICKS: Top 10 Best Business Podcasts
Here at The Expert Bookers, we live and breathe podcasts. We spend a tremendous amount of hours every week, researching and listening to different shows. We interact with the show hosts and their teams. We experience first hand the lengths hosts go to, to ensure superb content and excellent expert interviews. We hail these hosts as they work hard to provide the very best insights, advice and entertainment for us, the listeners.
There are many brilliant business podcasts being aired and we (The Expert Bookers), have an extensive list of favorites. Over the coming months we will continue to release our personal “Podcast Picks” revealing many hidden treasures from the world of podcasting.
Below we have compiled a Top 10 List of the Best Business Podcasts. The first three listed, are awesome shows that you should of heard of, unless you are a complete podcast newbie (which there's no shame in). Although these shows maybe a little predictable, it wouldn’t be a top 10 list if we didn’t include them. These podcasts are enormously popular for a reason and we would highly recommend checking them out, if you haven’t done so already.
The other seven listed shows are our personal picks that we have chosen. They may not be as well know, but they are worthy of attention based upon their quality content and great guests.
POPULAR BUSINESS PODCASTS
1. The Tim Ferris Show
Hosted by, well Tim Ferris. This show has generally been listed as the #1 business podcast and taken top rank on many occasions. The show was awarded Best of iTunes for three consecutive years. The show has done guest interviews with people like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jamie Foxx, Tony Robbin and many more awesome individuals. In Tim’s own words “I deconstruct world-class performers from eclectic areas (investing, sports, business, art, etc.) to extract the tactics, tools, and routines you can use”.
2. Entrepreneur on Fire
Hosted by John Lee Dumas. This show is another serious heavy-weight that has been in the top ranks for best business podcast again and again, and also awarded Best of iTunes. John has published over 1700 great interviews. John says “EOF was created for YOU. Our guests share lessons from their worst Entrepreneurial moments, AH-HA moments, and what has them most FIRED UP today!”
3. Smart Passive Income
Hosted by Pat Flynn. Pat's show is another hugely popular podcast. It’s a great show in which Pat interviews amazing expert guests and teaches proven strategies for running an online business and optimizing it for passive income.

4. Bacon Wrapped Business
Hosted by Brad Costanzo. Brad delivers “sizzling hot business advice guaranteed to make you fat profits!” We like this show for its consistent quality and great interviews. Brad discusses what's working in business and marketing with today's top business leaders and marketing minds.
5. The Nice Guys on Business
Hosted by Doug Sandler and Strickland Bonner. These guys are a joy to listen too...they really are nice! They not only deliver informative business advice and interview great industry leaders, but they teach how honesty, trust and integrity all have a place in successful business.
6. Join Up Dots
Hosted by David Ralph. This is a down-to-earth business show that is an easy listener. David interviews interesting experts and successful professionals in a relaxed, raw, conversational style that is informative and slightly addictive (that might be due to David’s English accent). This show will help you with your entrepreneurial mindset, motivation and confidence.
7. Entrepreneur Hour
Hosted by Chris Michael Harris. This show features special guests and provides fellow entrepreneurs with the knowledge and resources they need to build a successful business. This is an informative show that covers everything from bootstrapping to achieving a 7 figure business.
8. Biz Chix: Female Entrepreneurs
Hosted by Natalie Eckdahl. This is a show that interviews amazing female entrepreneurs and “a few cool dudes”. Natalie and her guests provide comprehensive advice and coaching on what it takes to start and run a successful business, but still find balance in life. I particularly like the Honor Coaching episodes (On Air Coaching) delivered by an expert guest.
9. Boss Academy Radio
Hosted by Paul Kirch. This is a well established, quality show, well worth your attention. Every episode includes a great guest interview of a successful business owner and/or industry leader. Paul never fails to delivers tips, tools and strategies essential to business growth.
10. Vroom Vroom Veer
Hosted by Jeff Smith. This is a show with a slightly different angle. Jeff interviews interesting, successful business guests about how they altered the direction of their career or personal path at some point in their life (their vroom vroom veer moment). Jeff delves into how each guest got to where they are now, both professionally and personally, in a conversational, storytelling style.
We would love to hear about your favorite podcast shows and other worthy contenders you feel could be added to this list.
