  • Niche and perfect

    LearnedLeague is such a specific sub-community that you’re almost surprised when you find a piece of media dedicated to it. This pod is one of my very favorites! I look forward to its return along with a new season of LL. And it helps that George and Amanda are very smart and very funny.

  • Deep admiration

    I can imagine how difficult it is to make a any podcast, and especially one targeted towards LLamas. I find it an invaluable resource for me; seeing how others approach the questions has made me a better trivia player.

    As an aside, and as a Texan… Thank you so much for the respect you have shown after the recent tragedy in Uvalde. I’m happy I share the planet with folks like yourselves.

  • A super fun companion to the learned league season

  • Interesting, but hard to listen

    It’s becoming harder to listen to this podcast. The sound is so much lower than others, so you need to remember to turn the volume down after so you don’t blow your ears out with the next thing you listen to. And the groaning and grunting of the hosts seems to be getting worse as their season is off to a rocky start.

  • Great for coaching your thought process

    Learned Lag is fantastic for helping to show you helpful ways to think through questions and connect to what you already know. Also, the rules they use are very helpful. My stats have definitely improved since I started listening.

    I do agree with the other reviewers who noted that sometimes George and Amanda are inaccurate in information they share. I get that the purpose is primarily for them to explain their thinking, but they do sometimes fact check and if they did that all the time it woul... more
