  • Two Irish lads bringing hilarity and education in a fantastic package!

    My first episode of this podcast was of the Marvel comic character Fin Fang Foom, a character I had only known by name and so was intrigued to learn about him finally. And this was the best possible way I could’ve ever learned! The sheer insanity and zaniness that this character goes through was explained and made so much more enjoyable by these two gentlemen joining us on the madness train and being just as confused as the rest us of while being funny in their own right as well.

  • Worth dipping into but not a full listen.

    1) very informative regarding superhero stuff but they cherry pick what they delve into.

    2) should probably stick to superheroes. The other commentary isn’t very good.

    3) not as funny as they think they are. Gotta stop laughing at their own jokes.

    4) they make out every superhero is this ridiculous character idea and think it’s the funniest thing in the world. They aren’t and it isn’t.

  • Come for the giggles, stay for the accent

    These two giggle their way through movie, comics, and pop culture topics and they giggle so much, you cannot help but giggle along with them. Especially when they solve the world’s problems. Their Irish accents are thick as milk but super charming. I’m making my way though their back catalog. It’s a fun, easy listening podcast that you should add to your regular rotation.
