Great insight into starting a new business
Fascinating podcast that highlights new business endeavors.
The narration is unnecessary
Enjoyed listening to the podcast but didn't care for the narration. I felt it was redundant and unnecessary. An explanation at the beginning and end would be fine.. But not throughout the podcast. I'll give it a few more episodes but if the narration continues as was the episode on Imirror I won't continue listening.
LOVE this podcast!! EVERY startup founder should listen!!
I thoroughly enjoy this podcast and have tweaked my own investor pitches based on listening to these episodes. I like it so much, I've actually applied to present to The Pitch! Every founder should listen to these episodes and learn from them.
So much to love, one suggestion that would make this podcast 5 stars
The Pitch is an excellent podcast. Besides being educational, it is a great example of how the forced drama of "Shark Tank" is unnecessary. However, the podcast stumbles by having the narrator endlessly chime in with voice overs to explain/summarize/dramatize the proceedings. Sometimes this is helpful something we cannot see (such as the design of a product). More often, it serves to summarize what just happened/why a statement is a big deal. Whenever the pitch dialogue drops out in these instances, the narrative flow screeches to a halt, and I'm left wondering what the investors are actually saying (rather than a summary of why the unheard content matters). Please trust the content and let your listeners in on the action more.
Fun show
This is a great show that keeps you wanting more. Huge upgrade in content and production with Season 2. Can't wait for me. Thanks
Very informative and tightly produced. Keep it going!
The show is very informative, fast-paced, and very well produced. They don't waste a second on unnecessary back-and-forth, what you hear will be both entertaining and useful to you. No canned drama as is par for the course with similar TV shows, like "Shark Tank."
Interesting
Josh is a nice host. Excited to see this one pop up in my queue
Count Me In

Amazing show
Well paced and super interesting. Makes me want to invest.
Best new gimlet podcast
The best thing to come out of gimlet recently. Better than shark tank
Great podcast for biz owners
Solid depth, insights, in a very consumable package. I'm a regular listener!
Insider Info Disguised as a Reality Show
Famed music blogger Bob Lefsetz describes Tech Entrepreneurs as the new Rock Stars. If you love to live in an "idea space," or you are creating your own Startup like I am, this podcast is a gift.
Thought this would be good and it's great
So fascinating listening to what people are trying to build and what invetors really think.
Fun and exciting show
It's like shark tank, but without the bs!
Good listen
Great insights into entrepreneurs battle to succeed.
Over editing gets in the way of great content
Season 2 feels like I'm watching broadcast where a constant voiceover cuts in so often it breaks up the flow of the content. Why baby the audience so much? Season 1 was much more enjoyable.
Great Speedy Insight into Pitching New Businesses
Great podcasts on how to best pitch new businesses to powerhouse investors. Good stories, innovative and diverse start-ups, great advice and perspectives. A Must-listen!!
A great way to learn
Love hearing the founder and potential investors learn from each other. I make my teenagers listen to see how businesses solve problems and innovate.
Gimlet's first reality show
I'm not super into business but I am really enjoying season 2. It's like I'm stepping into an entirely different world when I listen
Reality Radio
I love the feeling of rooting for real entrepreneurs who are building real companies. Honestly, I end up identifying both with the person giving the pitch AND the potential investors deciding whether to commit real dollars. It's fun to imagine what I'd invest MY money in (if I had some).
Always entertaining
Loving listening to pitch stories of startups who aren't as polished and coached as Shark Tank but feel more like real life. It's cool to hear some great ideas, done questionable and frankly hear the mistakes people are making in their pitches and the process. It makes it feel more human and interesting.
Great new show!
Great new show, well produced. Love the recap from a few months post pitch.
Really great
I am liking this show much more than I expected - I'm not much into business always but I've been hooked in each of the first four episodes. Really excited to keep following this one
Love the show!
Fun and exciting to see the whole process of pitching an idea.
