BrizDawgOnly one problem with this show…Erik brings top quality guests on his show with compelling topics on productivity and leadership. Podcast length and speed is great, and the content is meaty without a lot of fluff. The only problem is that I want to buy every book the show highlights!
-
BP WriterThis Podcast Is FantasticGreat host

BrightSideMetzGet Past the PlanningA good plan is useful. But we need to all get beyond figuring out what we need to do, and put plans into action. Erik visits with exceptional people who've done extraordinary things, and they're willing to share their insights on how to take action. It's a great listen!

Big JagsGreat life podcastIf you find yourself in a routine or realizing you’re not actually loving the life you have, you should listen to this podcast.

emjay217Great conversationsI really enjoyed the episode with Matt McWilliams. As a podcaster myself, it’s always interesting to hear how others leaned into their passion and found ways to monetize the journey. Matt, host of The Life Shift Podcast
-
Andy KoehnLife changingI’m not even kidding. I never listen to podcasts that are over :45 minutes…or at least…it’s a struggle. Not this one! It probably sounds a little over the top, but as an entrepreneur and podcaster and husband and father (and now a grandfather!) I have to say this podcast is 100% worth it…and it’s already had a life changing impact on me. It’s amazing. It’s pro. It’s real and fun to listen to. I love it…
-
EricWitmerProductivity at its finest.Such a good show, so many good guests. Highly recommend.

-
Jazzy579Great podcast but…I love this podcast, I really do. But of the episodes I have listened to, I am finding it really hard to relate to my life. A lot of these people run their own businesses and while that is likely more than a 40 hour per week gig, it also allows them a lot of flexibility. I listened to the Katie Krimitsos episode recently hoping to find some helpful tidbits for a working mom. Instead I hear that she doesn’t start her day until 9:30 and usually ends about 2. Those are not normal working hours for most working moms. She also mentioned getting a kid-free 24 hours every week. While it’s nice that she has so much flexibility, that just isn’t realistic for most of us. Alllll that to say, I do like the podcast I am just hoping for more relatable guests in the future. As a mom who works a full time, 8-5, Monday - Friday job, I would love to hear from someone who has navigated that scenario successfully.
-
Angie K RobinsonAlways Walk Away with a Useful Lesson!This podcast is such a great blend of practical how-to’s AND mindset shifts - I always walk away with something I can immediately apply to my everyday productivity efforts. And I get plenty of book recommendations! I definitely recommend this podcast to everyone!

Pierrestanley77 years and never disappointedIt has been already 7 years since I became a fan of the Beyond To-do List. Erik straight to the point ideas and profound questions make each interview interesting to listen. I owe a good part of my body of work to the show.
-

crysdanWonderful podcastAfter listening to numerous summary episodes elsewhere, I had to subscribe here. I’ve found the information useful and I’ve been introduced to new productivity books and podcasts. Thanks!

-
Jakub[SOP]Great practical productivity podcastAmazing interviews and information. Erik does a great job in his interviews with people who DO get stuff done. Looking forward to many more episodes and continued learning from this podcast.
-
RMKkpkHighly recommended!I love this podcast. Erik is without a doubt one of the best podcasters out there, especially in the productivity. He consistently gets guests to open up and have real conversations. I have heard some of the same guests interviewed on other shows and got nothing out of it except a lot of booty-kissing and mutual bromance/ego-boosting. However, Erik pulls out real information from people and gets their personalities to shine. I learn so much from his interviews and he's introduced so many authors, books, and tips that have improved my life. Highly recommended!
-
Andy StorchThe best podcast to improve productivity!There is no better podcast out there to learn how to stop procrastinating and get stuff done. If you want to improve time management and productivity, this is your place to go!
-
mtngrl94This is a great podcastIn this podcast really helpful people are interviewed such as Mamie lKanfer Stewart. Sometimes I pause the podcast to take notes.Sometimes I buy the person’s book. I’ve been binge listening to it. But don’t listen to episode 303 that guy is really depressing. He wants everyone to think he’s super happy and is hawking his book about doing things that are fun even though he comes across as super angry. It was just sad and spoiled my drive home.
-
CarpathiaXenosGreat conversations about getting stuff done...This is a great show to have in your feed because there are always great discussions and perspectives on getting stuff done in a better way. Subscribe and listen often you will learn great things!
-
Amber B CCListen, Apply, Be More ProductiveErik's show explores a wide array of productivity hacks that range from the classic time management to more new age minimalism. There’s something for everyone. Plus, superstar guests like Michael Hyatt! Highly recommend adding this one to your favs! -Amber Beam, Career Coach
-
scotteb75Great show... hot microphone.Erik, love the show but the audio coming from your mic is almost impossible to listen to. It’s high pitched with all mid range and no lows. Please fix so I can listen again!!! Keep up the good work.
-
Stephanie Mc.So many takeaways!I dare you not to learn something from each and every podcast. Love this podcast!
-
Shinsplints1536Living beyond my to doStarted listening today on my morning drive and already rolled through Joel Comm and Eric Zimmer’s interview. Love this podcast. Usually, the hustle, grind, to-do list perfectionist. It’s great to hear experienced leaders and professionals give advice, tools and best practices on achieving your goals while living a balanced life.
-
kendileeLet the guest talkSome Good information but the host talked a larger percentage of the time than the guest. Let the guest talk.
-
cris_educoachCan’t live without it!This is one of my favorite podcasts ever!! I always have an outcome of every episode !!
-
Matt RudnitskyListen and Be More ProductiveThe best productivity podcast I've come across. Eric is an incredible interviewer, and the guest selection is off-the-charts. Pick any random episode and you're sure to kick your butt into gear and stop proocrastinating.
-
Brian BisherEngaging and actionable!So happy I came across this podcast, and I know my wife is too! I've always been one to put things off and procrastinate. I'm only a couple of episodes in, but I've already found tips I can apply to my life, like the 5 project limit. Erik does a great job hosting and engaging the guest to get the best out them! Can't wait to check out more episodes!
-
ninoubinouThought-provoking + tangibleKudos to an incredibly well-designed podcast. The most recent episode with Nir Ayal is a game-changer!!!
-
KServiLove it!I find myself inspired to accomplish my daily tasks after listening to this podcast! Especially after listening to the episode with David Allen who is the originator of Getting Things Done (GTD). Alleviating the feeling of overwhelm really hit home for me! Thumbs up to the audio quality, as well!
-
Logo17Yes yes yesI love the tactical, honest and real rawness Erik delivers in this podcast. I hit subscribe and definitely can’t wait for the next show!!! For that listener that is ADDICTED to creating their future. For the listener who KNOWS they are destined for greatness but didn’t believe they could actually make money in it. This podcast is for you. Erik asks very candid and heart opening questions.
-
Obinna M.Great tips about health and moneyI liked listening to this episode with Brad Barrett. The tips were simple to follow, nothing out of reach. Yes, it's important to have money saved up. And also to not waste food. Leftovers are just fine! Nice episode with great, actionable information.
-
millernrVariety and qualityReally enjoy this podcast - I don’t remember how I came across it, but so glad I did. I drive a lot for work and this keeps my audible wishlist full of things to learn! I really enjoy the variety and quality of the speakers, and I can tell the host is really engaged in the books.
