  1. Money Girl’s Quick and Dirty Tips for a Richer Life

Listening to Laura Adams’ financial podcast is like getting a bite-sized listicle in every episode. Touching on topics that include how to be financially prepared for a career change, tips for exercising discipline with money and easy ways to lower bills now, it’s an entrepreneur’s dream binge listen. Plus, each episode clocks in at 30 minutes or less, so you can easily set aside some time in your schedule to tune in every week.

  1. Bad With Money

In a dream world, every entrepreneur is a financially savvy powerhouse. In reality, the vast majority of us have money struggles and even financial illiteracy that we don’t tend to openly talk about. Gaby Dunn, comedian and host of Bad with Money, puts everything out in the open in this podcast and is joined by fellow money experts in each episode. Touchy topics include a deep-dive on student loans, trying to comprehend how medical bills got to the point they’re at currently, the United States tax code and what to do if you are truly in a situation where practical financial advice doesn’t apply. This podcast isn’t for the faint of financial heart — which is exactly what entrepreneurs can benefit the most from hearing.

  1. Slate Money

As much as we love listening to experts and influencers dole out money tips and advice, it’s also equally important for entrepreneurs to understand what’s currently making financial headlines. Enter Slate Money, the weekly podcast from Slate hosted by Felix Salmon, where each episode is referred to as an “edition.” Salmon, who is joined by Anna Szymanski and Jordan Weissman, breaks down money news across the board covering everything from cryptocurrencies to major business acquisitions. Not all of it will pertain to the plight of a small business owner, of course, but it’s a great listen for getting caught up on the week’s current events.
