  • I love it!

    I adore this podcast! Its format is like Stuff You Missed in History Class, another one of my favorites, but is all about things fictional. Some I know well & some that are new to me.

  • Genuinely Terrible

    I really enjoy (well, at least Bryan on) Full of Sith and think this is such a cool concept — executed horribly. The theme song is the most obnoxious noise I’ve ever heard and fills me with actual rage it’s so irritating, and then as soon as it mercifully ends, it’s just the two of them reading like wiki-/wookiepedia entries, blandly. Oof.

  • Great idea with bad execution

    Loved the idea of this podcast, but they went about it the wrong way. Should’ve been much more of a discussion than reading bullet points. “This happened, then that happened, then this happened ,then that happened” is boring to listen to.

  • So much fun to listen to. The hosts excitement and immersion is contagious. I can't wait to listen to these with my daughter in a few years when she's old enough to appreciate them.

  • Brilliant take!

    This podcast is utterly charming and delightful. The take on historical documents and unearthing information from so many universes fills me with absolute joy. Even the topics I would never have considered on my own I am thrown into a deep dive to learn more after every episode. I wait on tenter hooks for each new release. Thank you so much!
