Reviews

4.2 out of 5 stars from 65 ratings
  • It's like they made a juice of MST3K epi for the modern person on the go. Listening to the two hosts give context for the items that I miss and reminding me of jokes and episodes is so wonderful.

  • Love These Folks

    This is the first podcast I’ve listened to regularly and without fail. There’s a big backlog that I’m working my way through and really enjoying. If these heroes don’t deep dive MST3K episode minutiae, who will!?!

  • Great Show!!!

    I love this show!! Funny hosts despite their East Canada perspective

    Update: still great. Getting to know the hosts over the life of the show has been fun. We don’t share the same favorite episodes but I enjoy their criticism and think they are arguing in good faith. If you “hate Tom Servo’s new voice” this might be the show for you.

  • I tried!

    I really tried to like it, but when they said The Final Sacrifice and Werewolf were both overrated episodes, they lost all credibility.
