    Please bring back :(
    This show was amazingly informative, while quite entertaining. I binged it for hours at a time while working (as long as it was work I could do while paying attention to Ariel and Jonathan). I actually find myself referencing things I learned on this show often! I also really love the friendly chemistry between Ariel and Jonathan, and their balance between information and humor. PLEASE LET THEM COME BACK! I want to hear about more businesses :( Im honestly very surprised that it ended— bad move, iHeart. I know I’m late to the game here, but I had caught up to a current episode a while ago and paused from listening so I could binge again... then came back to find I had reach their goodbye!! I thought they just went on a break, because I was waiting for more episodes to come out before binging again. So, the final episode says if you’re upset about it ending, to tell friends about it (which I do), subscribe (which I do) and talk about (which I am— hopefully not too late). Again— to iHeart; please bring this shoe back. To anyone else reading, please take a listen and tell them how much you love it (which you will); the show ending says nothing about the quality of work, so you won’t be disappointed until you, too, reach the end...

  • Silver State Kid
    Great Podcast
    Hosts do a great job walking through businesses on the brink. The research is great and they do a fantastic job making it intersting. One of my favorite podcasts

    One of my favorites BRING IT BACK
    Every episode has been amazing. Honestly, I share info I learn from this every week and have friends that have even taught Business classes based off of episodes on this show.

    I love this podcast
    I love this podcast I didn’t even realize that the listener count was so low. I have been listening since the beginning.
  • Nanny Dree
    Great show
    So very sad that iHeart media is pulling the plug on this well researched, very interesting and fun show....
  • Alime038507
    Very interesting
    Great podcast! Very interesting. Love the chemistry between Johnathan & Aerial!
  • HeartKingdom100
    One of the best Podcast
    This has been a gold mind of a find for a podcast. Jonathan and Ariel have great chemistry and they work well together. I love their corny jokes and I’ve learned a lot about these businesses that would would have never expected. Keep up the good work.
  • UphillstillWC
    Good info, difficult style
    Couldn’t get through one episode. I like this type of info on businesses with interesting stories but the presentation style doesn’t work for me. It’s where the hosts do their research well but present it as if they are just having a conversation and alternately one knows some tidbits the other doesn’t know and both constantly introduce their own history into the conversation. It comes off clumsy and contrived. I know some like that style and, if you do, these hosts are going to appeal to you.

    I love learning
    I love learning about businesses from this podcast. It is interesting to see behind the scenes of the businesses you know. I look forward to each new episode.
  • Stinamarie84
    Dang it, I liked this podcast but....
    As a black podcast listener, you’re always listening out for your fave podcaster to disappoint you. Owning up to owning Song of the South makes it uncomfortable for me to listen to as someone that’s a descendent of slaves. I don’t understand the appeal of people wanting this thing so bad even Disney doesn’t want to make the money it could off of it. That “it was a different time” excuse gets played really fast so yeah....no thanks. Will find something else to listen to.

    Built to last?
    I spent my entire career in business, including the C-Suite. In the ivory tower, you often can’t see the forest for the trees, and make missteps along the way. The brink Chronicles some of these missed steps for companies and brands let you know. The research is extensive and the insight valuable, not only for those generally interested, but for active business people as well. If you have a business ad, and/or curiosity about the inside drama in the top echelon of a brand, give this podcast a try. You’ll not be disappointed.

    One of our new favorites!
    I’ve enjoyed them all. Especially the most recent Marvel episodes. Excelsior👍
  • Stephy2
    It’s good.
    I learn a lot of background information that I didn’t know about companies from this podcast. I’m glad that the hosts stopped saying their outro as, “I have been Jonathan Strickland” etc., and have changed it to “I am...” It sounded way too pretentious before.
  • uggggj
    Great listen
    This quickly became one of my favorite podcasts. Very interesting stories.

    Critical Incorporated
    The Brink is a good show. It's like a spin-off from TechStuff, but it is exclusively about corporations. Jonathan and Kristen do a great job at detailing the histories of various companies. It may seem at first like it would just feed the ego of corporations, but it doesn't. They delve into the dark times of the corporations to see what went wrong, and their critical of their failures. We still wish they'd expand on the criticisms a bit more, but still, very informative podcast.

    Attn: ad
    FYI The ads that are airing on other podcasts for this show don’t make the name of the podcast very apparent!!! It took me forever to find this podcast. Lol

    Like like like like like
    Like this is like the like like like like. If you like like the like no more this show has all the likes you like could like.
  • ndlex
    Really bad
    This is just two people reading Wikipedia history on companies to you. They butcher names and it has no depth to it. I listened to several episodes thinking it would get better and it didn’t. The Apple episode was laughably bad.
  • ball-at-animeisga
    Annoying if you’re smart
    If you’re smart, you will quickly become annoyed at all the kindergarten explanations that are inserted between topics. Plus I became annoyed at the tone of their voices and the bubbly personalities. Unsubscribed
  • Mogadeet
    Compelling stories from business
    The podcast focuses on well known companies that reached a brink. Some triumphed and some failed. The hosts are very pleasant to listen to and the pace is lively. They avoid the irritating and time consuming chitchat that plagues most podcasts. Excellent!

    SYSK+(TechStuffxTheBrink)= Ear Heaven
    I love the general wealth of knowledge you get from HowStuffWorks, the brink is such a great idea, I’ve never heard of something like it, and besides the idea the podcasters are so perfect for this. 👌👌👌

    Jonathan Strickland Is Back (To Being Good)
    Jonathan Strickland is a great podcaster.....but only when paired with certain other podcaster. The “lone man in the shack act” just doesn’t work with him as the last few years of Techstuff has shown. I love him but I have to be honest in regards to this. However here he has found another great co-host for another great podcast show. I can’t help feel like I’m listening to “classic” Techstuff again with Chris Pillete as his partner. Long may this be a long and successful partnership.
