Podcasts similar to dave Ramsey, but more politically neutral?

I like Jesse Mecham’s podcast at You Need A Budget.

The Money Guys have credentials (CPA, CFA, CFP, PFS between them) and their Financial Order of Operations gives a road map like Dave's Baby Steps. Plus they do listener Q&A like she requested. If you listen enough, you will learn about different IRAs and things like that.

Ramit has target saving/investing/spending percentages. He's more about money psychology and doesn't really get into pros and cons of specific investment vehicles. He might in his book?

Bogleheads will have almost anything you want to know or be able to tell you where to find it, but it's likely overwhelming to many people.

Yep, The Money Guy Show is neutral and gives much better advance than Ramsey. Ramsey is a complete hack.

Ramsey appeals to the MAGA crowd that complains about the price of a dozen eggs, but will spend $100 for a Trump bible.

If you are into more retirement-focused content ... from planners who are in the business ...

The Retirement Answer Man (Roger Whitney)
Retirement Starts Today (Benjamin Brandt)
Stay Wealthy (Taylor Schulte)
The Long Term Investor (Peter Lazaroff)

While the preceding for individuals maintain their own audiences, I think they also started to consolidate their material into something called the Retirement Podcast Network.

There is also:

Popcorn Finance (Chris Browning)
The Indicator by Planet Money
Early Retirement (Ari Taublieb)
ChooseFI
Two Sides of FI

And yes, I could go on ...
Cathing Up To FI

Ramsey is horrible. He would hold you back in not time as your understanding of money grows. Go to youtube and start watching. That's how I started in 2020 during shut down.
Personal finance is very personal. My knowledge grew, needs changed, and I was comfortable taking more risk. The people I once followed, I would not listen now.
You should aim to learn to invest and not just stay out of debt or know to pay the highest debt first.
Money printing is not going to end. Ramsay does not consider this at all. Like my favorite investor says, 'if you don't make 14%' you are losing money.

Paula Pant's Afford Anything is GREAT!

i listen to a lot of retirement podcast and I like the Retirement Answer Man show, Retire with Purpose and the Financial Symmetry Show. These might be a little too retirement-focused for you, but if you're in the market for this sort of thing, I find them useful.

Ramit is way more annoying and in-your-face on political issues. He just posted on election day about how he was door knocking for Kamala. Of course, I’m sure that won’t be a problem for OP because she didn’t really mean “politically neutral”—she just wants someone who is not conservative.

The reason that I know about Ramit’s politics is because I don’t automatically shut down somebody if their views differ from mine (and I agree he has a good podcast). The other side should learn that lesson—you may even win an election every now and again if you do.

Biden is currently president in case you forgot.

It's not about personal finance, but I enjoy the Bloomberg Money Stuff podcast.

Whatever Dave Ramsey’s flaws, he’s unquestionably better than anyone who would tell you that you’re losing if you don’t make 14%. That’s a surefire way to take crazy risk and lose all your money.

Check out @calebhammer on you tube. I don’t think he has any financial credentials but the show is wildly fascinating!

Clark Howard. Been in the business for decades. 100% non-political. Daily podcast less than 30 mins. Highly recommend. I've been a Boglehead since my kids were little (now teenagers) and they highly recommended him. Just started listening during COVID and now listen dailiy. Great guy. Basic, commonsense approach. Takes questions.
