Has its moments
A few standout episodes but overall pretty average. Production quality could improve.
Waste of time
Stopped listening after 5 episodes. All surface-level advice that you can find in any blog post.
Good resource for new dentists
As a new grad this has been helpful for learning the business side they don't teach in school.
Helpful for practice owners
Some good takeaways here. Not every episode is a winner but the good ones are really good.
Hit or miss
Some episodes are fantastic, others feel like filler. Inconsistent quality overall.
Solid dental industry podcast
Good interviews and useful tips. My only complaint is episodes sometimes go off topic.
My team loves this
Our office manager recommended this and now the whole team listens. Great for office culture.
Love this show
Genuine, practical advice from someone who clearly knows the industry well.
Pretty good overall
Not my absolute favorite but I keep coming back. Good production quality and solid guests.
Better than most
In a crowded dental podcast space, this one stands above average. Good interviews especially.
Has its moments
A few standout episodes but overall pretty average. Production quality could improve.
Not for me
Tried listening for a month. The advice feels generic and the host talks over guests too much.
Good podcast, not perfect
Mostly great episodes but some feel repetitive. Still worth subscribing to.
