Interesting Insights
While the stories featured in The Pitch are really interesting, I also appreciate the broader exposure to the process and to the pitchers, which we don't get to see/hear/experience in other shows and podcasts. It's insight into the ups and downs of ideas, inventions and partnerships. And the editing helps tell these truly unique stories.

Gimlet gets another one
This show executes on the premise of really showing a VC pitch room! It's basically a "shark tank" for real businesses with real addressable markets. I think the format is quite authentic and interesting.

Another hit by Gimlet
So much more real and entertaining than Shark Tank. Not that I have ever gotten through more than 8 minutes of Shark Tank but listened to all of these

Awesome Podcast!!
Really love the podcast and hearing entrepreneurs pitch investors. Best part is hearing about the follow up on the business after they pitch inventors. So interesting to hear where they are and what they take away from their pitch.

New favorite Gimlet show
Appreciate the live action, Gimlet production quality, failures and wins of entrepreneurs. It's an education through live storytelling - lessons in pitching, strategy, and reading your audience stick because they're the stories of real entrepreneurs and their products.

Love it!
Gimlet strikes again! Although, the credit really goes to the show's creator, Josh. I'm really enjoying this podcast. The content and presentation is top notch. Looking forward to hearing more!

Off to a good start, liking it...
I hope it doesn't get too "Gimlet-ish", but 2 episodes in, enjoyable so far.
I'll come back and add more context depending on the investors and if they change...or is this the podcast version of "The Shark Tank"?
I also will go back and listen to his first season, pre-merger.

Well produce and fun
It's like shark tank on radio. The cool part is that since you can't see what is being pitched the descriptive narrative of the product puts you inside the room.

Love it.
Great show, intriguing contents.
Only request to the creators is to release new episode more often. Keep up the good work.

I AM HOOKED!
This is exactly the type of show that belongs on Gimlet Media, so glad they added it. I LOVE StartU, and this podcast is kinda of the shorter version..........someone described it as Shark Tank in podcast form. Really genius. I started at the beginning and I am just eating them up.

Great podcast....But!
I've listened to a few episodes now and I'm now subscribed, also I have enjoyed it for many of the reasons already mentioned in prior reviews. It's well produced and an easy listen. BUT, as a start-up CEO myself for the past 2 years, and having been in more than I want to remember pitches myself I can credibly say that when the tape is not rolling many of these Angels and VC's are a hell of lot less freindly and polite. It's one of the things I often debrief with my team about, the large percentage of Angels, High net-worth, and VCs that are really out of touch with what it is like on this side of the table. It takes no more effort to be respectful and decent. I'm not bitter at all if this sounds critical, rather I am attempting to offer a bit of reality from first hand expereince. It would be a better podcast if that real-world could be captured, heck maybe it will be in future episodes. BTW, we have taken funds, and thankfully we have been in a positon to take money from investors we respect and feel great about partnering with so far...! Enjoying the podcast, ty!

Must Listen!
Great concept! Provides detailed feedback from participating investors. Presents continuation of founder story months after pitch. I wish I could watch the tapes from all of my pitches to learn and improve.

Love this podcast!
I am addicted! I love how they follow up months after the pitch to see where they are now. Great podcast!

Great So Far!
I heard about this podcast on Start Up and have loved it so far. A simple pitch for the pitch is it is a podcast for of Shark Tank with more depth and less drama.

Like Shark Tank But Better
Feels like listening to a good story or conversation, not just watching people create dramatic tension
