Wharton Business Daily is a podcast about business and the economy. The show is a production of the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania. The host of the show is Dan Loney. He was a sports broadcaster for 25 years before joining the show.

Every weekday, the podcast narrows in on a topic relevant to the business world and consumers. Loney chats with Wharton faculty and experts in the field to provide insight. Business leaders also appear on the program as well. Professor Iwan Barankay explains why corporations want their staff back in the office. Sal Khan is the founder and CEO of Khan Academy. He shares his thoughts on how schools will incorporate AI into their teaching. Hudson Riehle of the National Restaurant Association reports a return to almost normal for the industry. Susan Wachter teaches real estate at Wharton. She updates listeners on the state of the commercial and residential markets.

Some Wharton Business Daily episodes focus on work and the office environment. Experts provide tools for people who feel anxious at work. Professor Michael Platt explains the impact of loneliness on the brain. Tiantian Yang identifies a new trend: women entrepreneurs. Emily Hund of the Penn Center on Digital Culture & Society believes "influencer" is a legitimate career.

Wharton Business Daily host Loney's background isn't in business. As a result, he doesn't use jargon or impenetrable acronyms in his interviews. His questions are that of a well-informed layperson. In the same way, Loney's guests avoid using jargon. So listeners don't need to have a background in business to enjoy the show. Curiosity and interest are all that's required.

Episodes are between ten and fifteen minutes long.
