I have discovered these programs when I subscribed to Sirius. Since then, I am a regular listener.

Marketplace offers a good 30-minute summary of the day's economic news with an in-depth look at a few issues. Even though the information is seriously researched, it is disclosed using a hint of humor, keeping the general tone relatively light.

As for Marketplace Money, it takes advantage of its weekly 1-hour format to offers a different view of the economic world, keeping an emphasis on personal finance (and related things, like career, etc.), and taking in some listeners calls.

I can't find anything negative to tell about these two programs. It a sure 5 stars for me!
