  • Love hate relationship

    I genuinely love this show and have listened since the original days, however if there was one thing that I would change is the constant annoying keyboard tapping sounds in the background, whenever one of the hosts is talking, you can hear another host furiously tapping away on their keyboard and it’s starting to verge on listening to ASMR podcast, please for the love of God stop this it is the only thing that I could find wrong with this show but now that I have noticed it it drives me insane

  • Too Long

    The content is very good but it can do with some editing. Episodes are the length of a feature movie. Even at 1.5 speed (which I wish not to do) it’s long. I often mean to listen but don’t want to commit 1:45 hrs.

Now there’s too many hosts talking over each other, too many low-quality ads, too much off-topic conversation, poorly researched news (you can hear Jason stumbling through the website as he records) and Jason and Ron spend way too much of their time telling you how to give them more money or buy merch. I get it, they need income but they’re doing it in ... more
