The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett

Business #11All Genres #146

A few years ago I was a broke, university dropout, at 18 I built an industry leading social media marketing company, and at 27 I resigned as CEO. At 28 I co-founded Flight Story – a marketing and communications company, and thirdweb - a software platform, making it easy to build web3 applications. I then launched private equity fund, Flight Fund, to accelerate the next generation of European unicorns. During this time I decided to launch 'The Diary Of A CEO' podcast with the simple mission of providing an unfiltered journey into the remarkable stories and untold dimensions of the world’s most influential people, experts and thinkers. Thank you for listening.My New Book: https://g2ul0.app.link/DOACIG: https://www.instagram.com/stevenLI: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevenbartlett-123

    Had to stop listening when Joe Rogan was mentioned
    Joe Rogan is a misogynistic racist. No apologies. Otherwise the discussion was interesting. Ciao

    Avid Podcast Listener Loves This
    I listen to a ton of podcasts. Some hosts don’t add anything to the conversation. Some hosts talk too much! Steven does a really nice job of moderating the discussions. He listens intently and adds some great thoughts of his own.

    Tom Dillon episode SO good
  • luccia_
    Gottman Doctors Episode
    The guests are amazing, but unfortunately this podcaster turned the episode into a personal therapy session about his own relationship, always circling back to himself and his girlfriend on key talking points . It would have been better if he kept all or most of his responses non personal and broad for all listeners, and leading with questions about research and results. Instead he kept the experts information relevant to his own experiences. They have such a wealth of information but all he could probe about was himself. Poorly done.

    Weight health expert former power lifter Dr. Layne Norton
    This interview with Dr. Layne Norton was so enthusiastically engaging. Dr. Layne Norton-was so informative and sharing his many staging of personal growth kept this segment so interesting to the very end when he spoke of his grandad’s passing brought tears to my eyes and had me relive my own father’s passing. Thank you Dr. Layne Norton for being so open and real, thank you Mr. Bartlett for always asking the intriguing questions to your guests that seem to bring out the answers we’re all waiting for.

    Such A Diverse Thoughtful Podcast
    I listen to many podcasts for enrichment, growth and intellectual stimulation. The thoughtful interviews on this podcast and the thoughtfuNESS of these interviews keep me engaged, listening and growing. What a gifted interviewer… he approaches his guests with care, curiosity and expertise. He asks questions… and then listens. Sounds like the way that the format for podcasts should go, but it rarely is. He calls on the expert and then gives them a platform to shine (and teach). Thank you!

  • Chill Baby
    Insightful!
    One of my go to podcasts! I have learned more and benefited more from listening to DOAC! Steven is so good at getting the most out of the interviews. In my opinion, nobody is a better interviewer! He gets his guests to feel at ease and really open up. You will not be disappointed listening to DOAC!
  • Hannah!! (: (:
    LOVE!
    One of the only podcasts that I have found about business where the host allows the other people to talk! I love that Steven is actively listening and remains curious rather than spending 50% of the show talking about himself/his own experiences. My all time favorite podcast!
  • Buzzin lightyear
    Such a rich podcast
    I gain so much value from these episodes. Amazing guests with deep insights and actionable recommendations. Huge fan…keep it up!

    New Listener
    I started listening to your podcast about 2 months ago. Its a personal goal of mine to listen to all 400+ episodes. At first it was because your like a spark notes version of “how to succeed”. Then it morphed into “what makes me happy? Or what gives me drive?” And now I’m on ep 43 which is by far my favorite episode so far and its become. “What can i learn?” Weather if its about myself or about business or about how to interact with others. I love your podcast i love the way you ask questions and feed our knowledge. And watching you from the start and seeing where you are in 2024. Just wow! Can’t wait to keep learning!
  • MyGoldenStar
    My Favorite Podcast
    Thank you, Steven, for creating a space to learn from the world’s top professionals. I have learned so much & I have become a devote listener. I really enjoy your thoughtful questions that help the listener digest the information. I saw some negative reviews on specific guests… However, I have found some of the topics I initially didn’t think would interest me have been the most profound. This podcast has helped me tremendously! Please don’t let negative comments sway your choices in guests. Keep crushing it-you’re doing amazing work & helping to change many lives.
  • Leftyxiv
    Insightful, wholesome, genuine
    I just recently stumbled upon clips of this podcast on YouTube and decided to try the whole form audio format and I am not disappointed. Steven is kind, genuine, thoughtful, insightful, and he brings meaningful content. I love the variety, too. He has legitimate experts in various fields. This has quickly become one of my favorites.
  • allielaw
    I've been living on your podcast lately!
    Really appreciate the variety and breadth of information you cover in your podcast: from business to medical to relationships to nutrition from all the greatest and latest. As well as, the research and your openness to vulnerability share about what you're learning and processing. You're a great leader, Stephan!
  • SBucholz
    Best Growth Podcast Ever!
    This is my favorite podcast! Steven has the best guests of any podcast I’ve ever listened to and I learn something new about myself with every episode. He give a lot of information (choices) for you to experiment with to help with life longevity.
  • CallmeAnonny
    Overly skeptical?
    Skepticism is good, and I appreciate Bartlett’s questioning of his guests to get at data and evidence and to understand it. But he was skeptical almost to the point of hostility with Dr. Neal Barnard. And for someone who promotes supplementing one’s diet, Bartlett made taking a widely available and expensive vitamin – B 12 - seem burdensome. I enjoy the podcast, but find the episodes varied in quality.

    This is a great show. Worst and most entertaining guest was Dr Vegan. I mean entertaining by-worst!! Most contradicting “DR” I’ve ever heard
  • Deeleecon
    THE best podcast
    This is one of my favorite podcasts. So informative and everyone should be listening in order to better their life. Steven has such a gift for interviewing.
  • bubba<3
    Excellent, interesting and entertaining
    I’ve just discovered this podcast and it is my new favorite with great guest selections and a host that is intelligent and engaging.
  • Paulina2024
    “Dr” Neal Barnard
    “Cholesterol in animal products raises cholesterol” “Fat from the food goes right into your fat” “Eat your pasta” “carbs and sugar don’t cause diabetes”… and I’m not even 1/3 of the episode. I’m scared what’s coming later! 😱🤣 Oh my goodness…. We are so sick worldwide because of this type of “Drs.” Steven, you still have my 5stars!
  • Kylie.Sann...
    A great host, very poor guest screening.
    He interviews guests across the spectrum of subjects & does so in a compassionate and interesting way. Unfortunately, he platforms people spreading dangerous misinformation that is easily debunked without a lot of pushback. No doubt it’s hard to find enough content to fill as many slots as he had but if you need to question every sentence that’s said by a guest, it makes it untenable to pay attention to any of the content. It’s not that he’s platforming political content that disagrees with my worldview, that’s great to hear even when I vehemently disagree. It’s quite another to platform blatant medical, health, etc misinformation that’s pretty easily disproven… especially when it’s done with limited pushback. I think he’s a great interviewer and I’d love to come back to this podcast but I think until there is better groundwork done on the guests he chooses to platform, this isn’t a show I’d recommend.

    Informative, Relevant and Engaging!!!

  • micfie
    5 stars- thank you!
    This is a quality podcast. Stephen deeply listens to his guests, & is so present & willing to be honest. Some of these episodes have literally changed my life- ie, the Glucose Goddess episode! I also love that there are sometimes contradictory opinions & experts, & it give us as the audience something powerful to consider. Thank you.
  • danx19
    Must listen podcast
    This is a top podcast to learn about having a well rounded life. There are a range of topics discussed from wise and insightful people. The questions asked from the host helps simplify some of the technical language from guests and are also thought provoking to dive deep into the minds of the guests.
  • Harley. Quinn.
    Amazing!
    I started listening/ watching him on YouTube until I found out he had a podcast. This podcast offers variety for those who want to enrich their minds and get tired of the same genre. The guest are provocative and his questions are thought provoking. He’s always well prepared and the conversation seem to flow seamlessly.
  • rpolasek15
    Awesome Podcast
    I explored throughout many podcasts possibilities, but bone of them has been that interesting as this one. I love most of the episodes. The people who are brought to the podcast are great and have so many useful information and insights. Thank you for it!
  • hayleyk24
    great podcast- check out arthur brooks interview!
    i haven’t left reviews for any podcasts, and i am an avid podcast listener, but diary of a ceo’s podcast with arthur brooks about happiness an incredible interview to listen to. both steve and arthur bring so much to this conversation that has left me walking away, thinking on life, meaning and key to happiness for days. i highly recommend- and look forward to more guests interviewed by steve! steve strikes a nice balance between adding input but also allowing his guest to speak.
  • Ch_arlie9
    This podcast has changed my life
    I am so incredibly grateful that I found this podcast, but also sad I found it so late. The way that Steven interacts and interview his guests is so raw and real, I feel like he asks questions other hosts wouldn’t probably asks their guests. I also love that he talks about a plethora of topics and this isn’t curated to just one topic (love life, life coaching, etc.). He’s peaked my interest in spiritual education, science, and business on levels I never imagined I would have. I can’t express enough how much this show. Thank you, Steven for making an impact on my life and to those i get to share this information with.
  • Single professional mom
    Misogynistic & demeaning.
    Divorce will make your friends divorced… No. I survived extreme abuse almost died & got divorced to survive. My still married wonderful friends are amazing. Your message is divisive & toxic. Also I lost 100 pounds after my divorce & inspired others. Alive to inspire without putting others down…
  • David AuClair
    LOVE. THIS. PODCAST.
    I have probably listened to about a dozen episodes and I love the questions Steven asks his guests. As a podcaster myself I definitely admire Stevens interview style and even ask some of my own guests some of the questions from Steven’s diary that he breaks out every episode. I would highly recommend scrolling through his episodes, finding one with a title that intrigues you, and give it a watch on YouTube (or listen here if you can’t watch, but I love having it on the tv and feeling like I’m in the room with them). Keep it up Mr. Bartlett your doing great work!
  • DebOkCorral
    My New Favorite Podcast!
    Just listened to Jan. 2024 episode on cancer, alcohol & sleep hygiene. Holy inspiration! Fantastic science behind all the free life changes we can make to prevent all kinds of diseases. Then binged The Poo episode Dec. 31, 2023 with gasterinterologist. Funny & factual! I am a podcast host too with interview style so I’m choosy about what I listen too. Well paced & edited, crammed with new info (which is rare for me as I read a lot) & the host & guests are fascinating. 10 stars!
  • Shanehinson211
    Blown away by Thierry Henry!!
    Hands down one of the best podcast I’ve listened to in a long long time! Unpacking his child hood and realizing he is a better person off the pitch than he was on, was mind blowing! Bravo! Keep up the great work Steven!! Can’t wait to see your future growth on your podcast, cheers!
  • Darling_taylor
    One Of The Best
    The diary of a CEO podcast is truly one of the best podcast out there right now. Steven does an amazing job, curating powerful, and educated guests that improve the quality of all of our lives. Thank you, Steven!

    New favorite
    I’ve been an entrepreneur for the last 6+ years, since my early 20’s. And I think most entrepreneurs have this “scanner” like personality. The love and interest for many things, activities and topics. This podcast fuels my love for business along with every other interests we as entrepreneurs have- psychology, finance, etc. thrown into the episodes. It’s one of the few podcasts where I actually sit and take notes, have key takeaways from every episode and really learn new things to implement no matter the season of my business. I also recommend watching on YouTube when you’re not driving (sub for your Netflix time). His voice will soothe you to sleep- just saying. Haha!
  • KatieFromNC2023
    Problematic guests
    I enjoyed this podcast when the guests were other CEOs bring interviewed about how they started their businesses. But Jordan Peterson and some guy who’s convinced he sleeps better than the rest of humanity? Please. Unfortunately I have unsubscribed.
  • lifelessonlearner
    Always Interesting and Thought Provoking!
    This is one of my favorite podcasts! Steven Bartlett does an amazing job interviewing his always interesting guests. He has all the right ingredients to host a show like this. His curious and laid back nature make his guests and the listening audience feel right at home. He is extremely smart, witty, funny, and his incredible knowledge on so many subjects make for interesting questions and commentary for the audience. I highly recommend listening to this podcast or watch his YouTube channel, which is where I first discovered him. I promise, no matter the subject, you will leave knowing a lot more than you came with!
  • Esperanzs
    Love this podcast!
    One of the most recent podcasts I loved was Dr. Daniel Amen - so informative!! Dr. Daniel Amen explains complicated things in such effortless simplicity I love it! Thank you! Even if you cannot afford to follow Dr. Amen’s full protocol, simply following some of his tips that do not cost a thing are super impactful. Thank you for also making the advice so practical. I love listening to Steven’s podcasts! His guests are awesome! Steven is such a talented interviewer!! I think a huge part of the success of the podcast not only is the selection of guests but Steven’s questions!! He has the BEST questions!! Steven really gets to heart of a topic each time. I love the way he does the whole show. Thank you Steven! : )
  • Expeditions Alaska
    Great but those podcast titles are awful
    Steven is really, REALLY good. And so many of his guests are great to listen to. Some wonderful conversations. I just wish they’d drop the horrible click-baity titles they use for so many shows. They’re awful. The titles of the pods so often aim for the lowest of the market. So plasticey and junk. It’s like used car ads or something. But the podcast itself is often not like that all —- very real, very nuanced and thoughtful. The titles do this great podcast a disservice. Steven’s an excellent interviewer and takes on topics that matter and he genuinely seems to care about those things. I have no idea who he is outside this cast but I’m a fan. Just change the titles.

    Review of DOACEO
    I have been listening to you podcast while walking everyday. I am constantly interested in the guests you have on. I am learning so many new ideas and concepts. Your interview skills are amazing and have helped me to guide conversations I have in my life. This has become my favorite podcast and I've talked about Diary of a CEO with so many people. Thank you Steve Bartlett!
