# The 17 best finance podcasts in 2026. Markdown copy of https://realalpha.app/best/finance-podcasts/ on Real Alpha, the best minutes from long interviews with the people building AI. Cite and link the page, not this copy. [Best podcasts](https://realalpha.app/best/) · Updated Oct 23, 2026 As of Oct 23, 2026, Real Alpha’s ranking of 7 finance podcasts puts All-In, BG2, Inside Blackstone, In Good Company with Nicolai Tangen and Invest Like the Best at the top, by the minutes worth watching cut from each. We follow 68 long-form podcasts and cut those minutes from their episodes. These are the shows we follow about markets, money and the economy. This list ranks the 7 we follow that fit it: the 5 we’ve cut 56 moments from, then 2 we haven’t cut yet. Then come 10 more we don’t follow, A to Z. It changes as we cut more. **How we rank:** Each moment we’ve cut from a show earns a point, plus one when an AI builder is the one talking and one when its episode cleared our views bar, and a moment’s points halve every year after its episode came out. Each show is scored on its five best episodes by those points, so posting more often doesn’t lift it. Shows we follow but haven’t cut from yet come after, by the views their episodes usually get on YouTube. 1. **[All-In](https://realalpha.app/shows/all-in/)** All-In is a tech news show, hosted by Chamath Palihapitiya, Jason Calacanis, David Sacks and David Friedberg, with a new episode a few times a week.
