Inspiration + Practical Tips = Winner!
This podcast is one that I look forward to every week. There are a nice mix of guests with different backgrounds, and Erik is a fantastic, easy going host. I think the show strikes the perfect balance of being motivational and story-centered, while also providing a lot of practical takeaways that we can apply right away.
Keep up the great work!

Practical Wisdom to Help You Get Over the Hump
I love this podcast. It's the percent blend of wit and actionable 'to do' steps.
Erik is an emerging thought leader in the podcasting & productivity world.
Definitely worth following! Keep up the great work.

Truly Beyond the To-Do List
I listen to many podcasts during my lunch break and on road trips, Beyond the To-Do List is by far one of the top three for me. Erik does a great job of guiding the conversation--he clearly knows the work of the different thoroughly--without ever getting in the way. I can think of few podcasts (i.e. Daniel Pink) with the quality of guests on their show. This show is definitely worth your time.

Worth every minute
Let's start with some honesty. I hardly ever listen to podcasts. I am just too ADHD for most of them to keep my interest. But Erik's podcast is the exception. He always asks good questions and engages me with the way he pulls new information from people I am familiar with. If you are looking for tips to gain productivity in your life, this is well worth your time.

A Gem
My favorite podcast! It does a great job showing how all kinds of people from different backgrounds/careers use the methods for productivity that work best for them. It's not about simply scratching items off a to-do list as quickly as possible each day. It's about knowing your priorities and what makes you, personally, your most productive self. And I love that question the host asks his guest every morning: In an ideal world, how do you start your day?

Not a productivity podcast
It's a nice podcast for people who are into the crowd of social media and the type of people Erik Fisher is connected with, but there are a couple of reasons it does not deserve five stars.
I've given it 4 stars, but really, my rating hovers between 3 and 4 stars for two reasons:
1. It says it's a productivity podcast, but it's not. Productivity is mentioned in each interview, but really, this is just another interview podcast with high-profile people (along with many not-so-high-profile people). The host talks with the guests about whatever he feels like talking about, though there are two topics he tries to bring up in most of the interviews: (a) work-life balance, and (b) "In an ideal world, how would you start your day?" I like these questions, and the discussion on both is good, but both are worked into the interviews in a less-than-structured fashion; I never know what to expect.
2. Erik J. Fisher asks for 5-star reviews in half the podcast episodes. This always lowers the quality of a podcast for me. Ask for an honest review, not for 5 stars.
I still like the podcast. It has good content. But it's really not a productivity podcast.

Practical and relevant advice and information
Found this podcast when you were a guest on Starve The Doubts podcast with Jared Easley and glad I did! Love the casual style and relaxed chat and ideas/tip and advice that you discuss. Working my way back through the shows! Thanks for a great podcast.

I cried. Really.
Thank you, Erik! Hearing from the likes of Sandra McCracken and Derek Webb—uniquely productive and opinionated people—has given me courage to be true to God's design for me. At 55 yrs. young, with Major Depressive Disorder and Adult ADHD-Inattentive, I've tended to compare myself to others in seeking my own relevance, AND... I've allowed such comparisons from others to leave me at the bottom of the heap. NOT ANYMORE! What a boost this podcast has given to me!

This podcast by Erik J. Fisher gives you the opportunity to meet some of the most inspiring personalitys on online business and marketing. Erik Fiskers podcast about to-do lists have been on the top of the list in iTunes ever since the launch - and it is on the top of my list, too - one of the podcasts I have to hear every week.

Practical and Inspiring!
Erik Fisher produces consistently brilliant interviews with some of the most amazing people on the planet. The insights are perfect and timely. The only area I wish was a little better was the audio quality. Other than that - 5 stars all around!

Great podcaster
The podcasts and interviews are good. Lost a star because after 15 episodes, it appears that Erik only interviews people with his same world view. As a non christian, I feel a little left out of some of the lines of questioning. But when the interview rounds back to the subject matter, its great!

I love to tune in to this podcast while doing mindless tasks! I can't tell you how many times I've had to stop what I'm doing to write down a great idea that Erik or his guests share. Always looking for the time to listen in. :)

Beyond the To-Do List

Life Changing. I tell everyone to listen.
Your cast has changed my life. As I listened over the last year...I started to change everything.
Because of Pat Flynn cast... I decided to write an e-Book
Because of Timothy Ferriss cast... I decided to sell my tedius and time consuming print business and become a speaker
Because of Robert D. cast...I am planning a trip to Bali on my 14000 day...in 461 days
Because of David Allen cast... I am at inbox 0 and started at 14000 flowing emails inbox on average
Becuase of all your cast...I own a fitbit, I get up earlier, I spend more time with my 1 year old and I am becoming the person I have always been under all the chaos.
Maybe one day I will be guest!
A million thanks!!

Robert D.
You have to listen to the episode with Robert D. I am exhausted after that. I rarely go buy the book, but I am now!

Awesome Podcast
Erik is a great guy that does go beyond just the systems in place that each of his guests use to control their workflow, but the story behind what they do. I have to say not only have I walked away with guidance for my productivity, but also inspiration. Thanks Erik for all you do.

Weekly, a Winner
This podcast is a must-listen. I have heard every program so far and every one of them has not only been helpful, but has been a home run. Erik is able to not only get great guests, but ask questions that the listeners have. Suscribe and enjoy!

Not Just Productive … Powerful!
I'm a sucker for anything that might help me be more productive. But Erik's heart comes through loud and clear in this podcast, and he draws that out of his guests too. We aren't just hearing helpful tips from impressive guests, we are hearing them share authentically what works and what doesn't to make an impact on the world.

Inspiring and Practical
Anyone eager to learn what the leading minds of entrepreneurship, business, productivity, and content creation are doing, should look no further. BTTDL is a gold mine of great insight and practical tools. The interviews are well done, fun, and never fail to provide the listener with useful inspiration. BTTDL should be required listening for all business school students. I am always eager to hear what's next!
