Fantastic podcast - action oriented
Found this show a few months ago and have been listening ever since (after catching up on the backlog of episodes). Really action oriented with honest straightforward advice. Loads of great interviews (David Allen, Mike Vardy, Merlin Mann, Jeff Sanders) - really gets to the heart of getting the right things done well.

How to Be Productive From Actually Productive People
Erik’s guests are real people, entrepreneurs, go getters, and self made business people who are out there following their dreams and because of this need to be productive. His guests are using the tools they talk about in their lives to manage their personal lives, their passions, and sometimes their full time jobs. I learned so much from these interviews and could not stop listening from episode one to the current episode. Looking forward to many more episodes and continued learning from this podcast.

Long Overdue!
I am ashamed that I haven't left a review sooner because I am a longtime fan of the show and somewhow missed writing a review! After briefly chatting with Erik at Podcast Movement last week I realized this was long overdue! As a self-described productivity geek, I have found a TON of valuable info in this podcast. One of his most recent interviews with the creators of Focus At Will has done WONDERS for my productivty. Sorry to have waited so long to review you, Erik but please keep up the great work!

Profound
I just started listening to podcasts about three weeks ago, and Beyond the To-Do List is definitely one of the best I've heard. I've listened to 15-20 episodes so far and plan to listen to all of them at least once; and there are several that I'll be saving to re-listen to later. This is so much more than a productivity podcast. It really makes you think about your priorities in life on a large scale. I'm not even striving to become an entrepreneur and I still get a lot out of each episode. Anyway, kudos to you Erik! Highly recommended.

Nuts and Bolts From the Ground Level
I've listened to most of these episodes by this point, and I thoroughly enjoy the down to earth conversations about what everyday life looks like for highly productive people. Erik is quite transparent at the outset that he is trying to figure this stuff out for himself. I have learned a lot from him and his guests...and I hope he doesn't stop.

Refreshing Common Sense and New Ideas
I have just recently discovered Erik Fisher and the Beyond the To Do List and am pleasantly encouraged with the content and how the next topic fits right in with what I need. I do a 5K walk each morning before work and listen to a new podcast each day while walking. I can go to work pumped with new information and ideas to help get the day started with Personal Productitity! Keep up the good work Erik! I have a lot of sessions to catch up on to get current and have acutally listened to a couple twice to make sure I got all the info.

Awesome content delivered in a productive way!
If you want to not only get more productive but also grow as a person listen to this podcast. It's more than just productivity tips. It's inspiring. But be warned. You may go off and do some incredible things once you start listening to this on a regular basis. Love the show!

One of the best.
This podcast is very well organized, starting with the first episode. The interview questions start right away and are well paced. Of course the most important part is the content, and in this area I would say "Beyond the To-Do List" is primo.

thanks
I think one of the secrets of a successful networking is to repeat the things that are working and do something of value for people first.

Beyond Helpful
Love this podcast and listen on my morning walk. A great motivator to get the walking gear on. Erik has provided so many helpful tips through his questions to interviewees. I’ve bought their books, put their ideas into practice and especially love “In a perfect world, what is your morning ritual.” Thanks for your thought-provoking content, Erik. Always look forward to what’s next.

The Pro in Productivity
I absolutely love this podcast. I just finished listening to all the back episodes and each one just gets better and better. Erik takes such a fresh look about approaching productivity and ultimately, creativity that you never know who he will have on the show next. One day it is the founder of GTD, another it could be the owner of Harley Davidson. If you want an engaging podcast that makes you think about how you approach productivity, this is the cast for you.

Learn how to be more productive from the people who know!
I've been listening to BTTDL for around six months now and it has rapidly become my most-listened to Podcast. Host Erik Fisher has a relaxed, laid-back style of interviewing some fantastic guests - including David Allen, Tony Stubblebine and others - which has provided me with some fascinating insights into how some of the best people manage their time and energy and achieve their goals.
It's worth adding that the show-notes web pages for this Podcast are some of the best I've come across. If you're like me and have ever listened to a Podcast and then forgotten a product, tool or link that the host has mentioned - fear not, Erik has them listed on his show notes for you to check out after the Podcast.
Just a great Podcast. Thank you Erik Fisher for sharing it with us!

Relavant and Honest
Erik does a great job in his interviews with people who DO get stuff done. I LOVE the GTD concept always learn something new to try or implement from each episode. Totally worth your investment in listening.

Informative and interesting
I really like this podcast, and even though I wouldn't call myself a "productivity" person per se, I still find this really interesting and have often gained really useful tools to help me in my life and work. I'm a stay at home mom and still find this a great listen.

Life Changing Ideas
Paul Jun's idea of creating a 'Common Places' folder in Evernote to capture all of your thoughts, quotes, etc in different subject areas that allow you to capture your self eduction's journey has changed my life.
Thank You.

Inspiring!
Love this podcast! I listen to it nearly every day (while I am catching up on old episodes) and each one gives me new tips and tricks to find pockets of time in my day. More importantly, there is always a fantastic take-away message about the importance of balance and sanity in one's life. What a motivating and empowering podcast! Thank you!

Mental boost everytime I listen.
I listen to every podcast and always find something great I need to write down and follow through on in my own life. I listen to the podcast my way to work on Mondays, and it leaves me motivated and with something to focus on that week. I find so much valuable material, and presented in a very down to earth manner. And for the record, I love hearing the "morning question" answers. Thanks for all the great content.

Fresh look at how real people live and work
Productivity tips never really do it for me. Erik's fresh approach to this subject is super useful to me though. You get to dive into how real people work in their real lives. Seeing the challenges and how people solve them to get things done is what makes it useful to me.
My favorite episodes are the ones with Chris LoCurto - amazing! Start there.
