  • Disappointed

    I loved this show when Anita Sarkeesian was in charge. It featured deep cultural analysis from a feminist/queer perspective. Now it’s just dull, like “How did you like the cast? How did you like the performance of actor X?” How did you like the lighting? I listened to the “Wicked” show and there was literally nothing about the content, the interpretations and the meaning of that book/musical/movie in the show.

  • Excellent show that has changed

    It’s difficult for me to accept how much this show has changed over the years. I miss the video game reviews and discussion and I’m disappointed that they don’t cover games anymore—it wasn’t just Carolyn, Anita used to be a gamer too.

    If I had to give the podcast a rating, I’d say now that Kat Spada is on board, it’s back up to a 4, but for me the average is... more

  • Good, thoughtful podcast

    But please fix the mic volume issue on the latest (Dune) episode and re-upload it! I can’t be the only person who couldn’t listen to it because the switching between hosts—who were quiet—and guest—VERY loud—hurt my ears!
