…as opposed to baggily-edited rambles which take far too long to get to the salient points, or self-promotional claptrap, this business podcast features interesting guests on fascinating topics.

Not quite as boring as static

The usual pseudo intellectual crap you expect from bbc 4. If you find yourself listening to this on the radio you should kill yourself, it’s over over for you already .

It should be an hour long

This show is always so interesting. I could have listened to the restaurants one for hours. It should be way longer, Even Davis does a superb job of running the interviews.

Listening to Evan is a masterclass in journalism

The single most tedious show on Radio 4. An endless parade of bland CEO's and business 'gurus' answering questions that seems like they are reciting from their latest company brochure sprinkled with a little bit of pseudo, lower sixth Confucius to stroke their empty rhetoric. Appalling

Great Podcast

Still one of my favourite shows. If you're looking for something similar, but a touch more lively, then the VOOM Podcast is excellent.

I have just listened to the broadcast. This was an excellent discussion, and, if I may, well chaired, explanation of what is not an entirely straight forward subject.

Always good quality, great guests and interesting topics

Consistently excellent programme, with brilliantly relevant guests each week.
Cover a wide variety of business areas. The programmes are always well structured, with Evan Davis leading us through, whilst allowing the guests to contribute thoroughly.

Listen to the bottom line often when travelling to work. Love them, makes that hour interesting! But hurry and make more they seem to be coming out slower and slower!

Essential part of my MBA studies.

This is well presented and well balanced. It is an essential part of my MBA studies and any obfuscation on part of the guests is quickly and delicately clarified by the host. Outstanding.

Unmissable

The highlight of my podcast listening, Evan Davis is always enthused and engaging. Guests are varied and well chosen, I learn something new every week. Radio 4 at its best

Approachable, interesting, makes business 'fun'

Evan has a great rapport with his guests and his audience and doesn't forget that we don't all know what the lingo and acronyms mean. He makes the topics highly approachable. Think he could make a great teacher!

Insightful and helpful

Evan has a great voice for audio and his topics put together leaders in the subject and then packed into an easy to consume podcast. A highly valued resource that i enjoy listening to, thank you!

Dunno why they would have said that. She steers the topics as well as Evan. Brilliant insight into the thoughts and experiences of the countries top execs

Used to be great but now...

I used to look forward to this pod with Evan but recently he's been replaced by a lady (stephanie) and the content and pace has significantly deteriorated. Evan kept the debate punchy and interesting, whilst the new/ interim female presenter (stephanie) seems to have turned this into monotonous debates about the economy in general rather than interesting quirky topics such as the rate of new technology development or the importance of continual innovation for companies to prosper. If Evan doesn't return (& bring some better topics / guests) I will not be downloading any longer.

Great way to enjoy the commute!

Topical, witty and revealing. Evan Davies does a great job poking and provoking the beast of business into action. The episode on PR with Sir Tim Bell was a classic ding-dong (pun intended).

Great guests, great discussion

I always look forward to this podcast. Interesting guests, who really know what they're talking about. Evan keeps them on track, and provides useful comment. All told, well worth the investment of 30 minutes a week for anyone interested in business.

Good discussion, disappointing outcome

A great listen, with a good panel of guests and Evan on form as usual. It nearly turned in to all out war against private equity, which is another programme entirely.
With WPP and Interbrand clearly pushing their pro-advertising/marketing positions, but there wasn't much balance.
In small and medium companies I work with, the challenge is getting this treated as an investment rather than a cost. Too often either the ego, and 'brand advertising" dominates - or nothing is done at all. I didn't hear this angle explored much, but a good listen nonetheless.

Essential listening

As ever, straightforward and direct; Evan Davis asks the questions you would want to ask.
