The Canadian Real Estate Investor

I thought I would let my voice be heard for those Canadian entrepreneurs who are looking for a good podcast! For me, I love the podcast: The Canadian Real Estate Investor with Daniel Foch and Nick Hill. This is a detailed Canadian real estate podcast that covers a wide variety of topics, from the best real estate marketing strategies to more information that any entrepreneur can benefit from! Daniel and Nick put together 40-45 minute episodes and release them each week, so there’s plenty to listen to for those people who want to learn about entrepreneurship, real estate, investing, and more!

The Blogging Millionaire

As a blogger and blogging expert, my favorite podcast is The Blogging Millionaire Podcast. I strongly believe that every business should have a blog to share their expertise and attract more traffic to their website. This podcast is amazing because Brandon Gaille (CEO of the popular blogging tool RankIQ) shares extremely valuable content with all the insights you need when it comes to blogging and SEO. All the episodes are short and to the point, and after each episode, you have learned a new growth hack you can start working on for your blog, and it’s all for free!

How I Built This

The How I Built This podcast with Guy Raz offers honest conversations with founders of successful businesses of all types and industries. We get to peek behind the scenes and hear their journeys, including what worked and what failed. It offers valuable insights and lessons for entrepreneurs at all stages of business.

The Garyvee Audio Experience

I have been listening to GaryVee’s audio experience for a few years now, and it has become an essential part of my day. His content is always relevant, inspiring, and motivating. He covers a wide range of topics that are important to entrepreneurs. More importantly, the advice he gives is honest and straightforward, which is something I really appreciate.

The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

Host Josh Elledge has put together an amazing podcast called “The Thoughtful Entrepreneur” and has over 1,400 episodes! Not only do you get the stories about how people started their companies, he also gets insights on where they’re going next and their plans to do so. Josh is high-energy and the episodes are quick, but filled with powerful insights that will benefit any entrepreneur.

My First Million

As an entrepreneur, my favorite podcast is My First Million from Shaan Puri. The show features interviews with successful entrepreneurs, business leaders, and investors who share their stories and insights on how they built their businesses and achieved success. The podcast covers a wide range of topics, including startup strategies, marketing, sales, and fundraising. One of the strengths of the podcast is that it is very actionable; Shaan tries to extract from the guests the specific tactics and strategies they used to achieve success. The guests come from a variety of industries and have a wide range of experiences, making the show interesting for entrepreneurs and business owners of all levels.

The All-In Podcast

If there’s one podcast that every entrepreneur should listen to every week, the All-In Podcast is it. In it, four renowned investors and company builders – Chamath Palihapitiya, Jason Calacanis, David Sacks, and David Friedberg – talk about current events, politics, technology, and business. They have diverse viewpoints and unique areas of focus that make the discussions dynamic, entertaining, and deeply interesting. There’s no other podcast that offers this sort of horsepower on a regular basis. I couldn’t recommend it more highly.

Acquisitions Anonymous

My favorite entrepreneurial podcast is Acquisitions Anonymous. Billed as the number one show for business buying, selling, and operating, it has timeless content because it analyzes the qualities of different markets, business models, and competitive positions. The show is consistently structured with a casual tone, and I have a lot of respect for the three hosts. They have also managed to have a number of great guests on top of that.

Trevor Ewen, COO, QBench

Tropical MBA

I recommend the Tropical MBA podcast. left field podcast but Dan and Ian have been running this show longer than time itself, they give real-world insights about life as a Nomad and Entrepreneur through their guest interviews, showing not just the rosy side of the business but also people that have come back from having a dollar left to building a million dollar business and how they got there.

It not only drives inspiration but through its guests you get to learn about future technology, trends, places to live and insights from across the globe that you may not be aware of but also that could really help your business, condensed into

Grit Podcast

As an entrepreneur, I recognize that sales and go-to-market strategies are critical to growth and oftentimes difficult to architect. I love Kleiner Perkins’ Grit Podcast, hosted by Joubin Mirzadegan. Joubin is a partner at Kleiner Perkins, and he interviews CEOs and sales leaders of successful companies. They don’t spare any detail in the history, challenges, and successes of these individuals’ careers. Grit provides a unique perspective to entrepreneurs because of the sheer tenacity it takes to build and scale a company. By gleaning insight from some of the top sales leaders in the world, there is always great detail to walk away with to consider implementing at your company.

Disruptors Podcast

Disruptors by Rob Moore is my favorite podcast because it offers a unique perspective on entrepreneurship with its unscripted and unedited interviews. The guests range from well-known entrepreneurs to lesser-known but still successful individuals, providing a diverse range of perspectives and experiences. Listening to the story of an entrepreneur who didn’t even have enough money to buy a bag of chips when he started, who ended up being one of the biggest commercial vehicle dealers in the north of England is absolutely astounding.

BizChick Podcast

The BizChick Podcast, hosted by Natalie Eckdahl, MBA, is a great podcast for women entrepreneurs and business leaders. Eckdahl provides tips for growing your business, focusing primarily on issues women face in business. Her most recent podcasts have focused on what you should do in 2021 and what you shouldn’t do this year. She provides actionable advice that enables you to perform at a higher level. She often features expert guest speakers as well. This podcast delivers messages that help you to grow personally and professionally.

The School of Greatness

The School of Greatness hosted by Lewis Howes is an excellent podcast to learn a lot about entrepreneurship, leadership, mindset, health, self-motivation, and more. He features inspiring interviews with successful leaders, and as an entrepreneur, hearing stories from others who have already made a breakthrough keeps our own candles burning. The topics are relatable. I also like Lewis Howes’s approach to interviewing his guests; he’s authentic and not afraid to ask tough questions.

The Entrepreneur On Fire

One of my favorite podcasts to listen to as an entrepreneur is the “Entrepreneur On Fire” podcast. This podcast is hosted by John Lee Dumas, an award-winning podcaster and entrepreneur, and it is dedicated to inspiring and educating entrepreneurs from all over the world. Each episode features inspiring interviews with successful entrepreneurs and business leaders to discuss their journeys, their successes and their failures, and the lessons they’ve learned along the way. I love to listen to this podcast as it gives me the motivation and inspiration to keep pushing myself and my business forward. In addition, I find the interviews incredibly insightful and the advice provided by the guests incredibly valuable.

The Whole Man Academy

As I grow my business, I am conscious of making time for my loved ones and myself. To ensure that I am a great, supporting husband for my wife and a present, engaging, loving dad to my son, I must become the best version of myself and be happy and fulfilled. Doing all of those things well while still giving myself time to do something I enjoy is no easy task. It’s challenging but rewarding.

One podcast I listen to while I work to help me navigate this and be the best person I can be while feeling fulfilled is The Whole Man Academy podcast with Anthony Astbury. Each episode features an interview with a man with a mission, such as a retired sportsman, entrepreneur, life coach, body coach, TV personality, or A-list model. It helps you understand the challenges and troubles that men from all backgrounds and walks of life face and provides practical tips to use in your daily life. Please go check it out!

The Tim Ferris Show

My favorite podcast to listen to as an entrepreneur is The Tim Ferriss Show. Tim approaches interviews in such a unique way that he makes you think differently and question your thoughts on many topics. As an entrepreneur, your life and business are very intertwined, and Tim’s podcast makes you envision loftier goals for both. Tim has over 600 podcasts, which makes it easy to find multiple topics that will enlighten and inspire you in your journey.

Second Time Founders

Second Time Founders is a weekly podcast that discusses news in the tech industry with-you guessed it-founders who have started their second company. They discuss all the challenges of starting a business, from funding to burnout, and routinely have guests who have also started multiple businesses. The hosts share their wealth of experience in both success and failure with eager entrepreneurs who are navigating the same path. Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube.

Masters of Scale

My favorite business podcast to listen to as an entrepreneur is the Masters of Scale podcast hosted by Reid Hoffman. Each episode features conversations with successful entrepreneurs who offer insights and strategies for growing a business. The episodes focus on how companies scale from small to large, making it invaluable content for anyone looking to start or grow their own business. It’s inspiring to hear stories of success firsthand, not just in theory, providing tangible motivation to achieve one’s goals. Thanks!

Library Talks

My pick of the litter may seem a bit outside the box, but that’s exactly what makes it invaluable: Library Talks from the NY Public Library. Now, an entrepreneur shouldn’t freak out at the “library” part: it’s not just for bookworms, by bookworms. Think of it as an assortment of super interesting guests that tackle a range of topics you don’t even think about, like undercover reporting about the prison system or what’s lying beneath the story of Frankenstein. Not only do these topics give you a break and a fresh start, but they also provide viewpoints that can yield ideas for your business.
