  • Great listen

    The production of this podcast is amazing… as someone who is hearing impaired, the usual mumbling and talking over each other you get in most other podcasts makes them impossible to understand or enjoy. However, here: everyone takes a turn talking and they use clear speech and trust me it is like a breath of fresh air… now if only they liked Marvel a bit better… 😊

  • So sad

    I’ve been listening to these guys for well over a decade. They definitely lean far left based on several of their comments over the years. I’ve always laughed it off but on the most recent episode, one them stated they would not be picking up Marvel’s 1776 because of the “current political situation “ and he wasn’t feeling very patriotic…maybe in 3 years…WOW! You sir have a severe case of TDS and I am done!! Enjoy the next 3 years…I know I will.
