There’s never been a better time to get clued up about investing – and one of my favourite ways to do it is through podcasts.
It’s a brilliant way to absorb information when you’re busy living your life – whether that’s commuting, walking the dog or even while doing the washing up!
I’ll be honest though – there are some dreadful investing podcasts out there.
But when you find the good ones? Game changer.
Below, I’ve put together my 14 best investing podcasts for UK listeners that I genuinely look forward to each week.
If you’re just getting started, they pair nicely with our guide on how to invest your first £100.

We had to start with The Motley Fool podcast because it truly is one of the best investing podcasts.

Episodes are short and easy to digest through the week, with longer interviews and a market round-up where they discuss hot topics, talk to top investors and CEOs, and unpack a few of their watchlist stocks.

3. Panic With Friends
We love Panic with Friends. Every Thursday, I’ve tuned in religiously for over a year now, and host Howard Linzon never fails to disappoint.
Howard and Co-Host Knut Jensen, interview Founders, seed investors and venture capitalists with a focus on innovation and technology. It’s a fantastic insight into the mind of the Founder and how the market works when funding an idea.
Howard would be a strong choice if I could pick someone to be at my dinner table at Christmas.
His humour often has me laughing out loud on the morning commute, and somehow through all the jokes, he is always bang on the money with whatever topic is being discussed.
Howard Linzon was also the Founder of the largest online community for investors and traders called StockTwits. Highly recommend this one!

They cover individual stock picking strategies, cryptocurrencies, blockchains and macroeconomic agendas. The topics can get quite deep sometimes, but if you want to expand your knowledge quickly, this is a great pick.

Money Week is a magazine discussing in-depth topics related to the markets. The MoneyWeek Talks podcast is hosted by the magazine’s editors, Kalpana Fitzpatrick and Andrew van Sickle, with regular guest experts.
We religiously listen to Money Week as each guest has a unique viewpoint on the markets’ current state, which we find fascinating.
This podcast is certainly for more intermediate and advanced investors as the topics go pretty deep.

13. Unhedged (Financial Times)
From the Financial Times and Pushkin, Unhedged is a snappy markets podcast hosted by Robert Armstrong and Katie Martin.

Smart, a little contrarian and genuinely funny, it cuts through the noise on what is really driving markets.

14. The Rest Is Money
One of the most popular money shows in the UK right now. Robert Peston and Steph McGovern unpack the economy, business and personal finance twice a week in a way that actually makes sense. It leans more towards money and the wider economy than pure stock picking, but if you want to understand the backdrop your investments sit in, it is brilliant.
