  • When Dre said "capo" he made it sound like an Australian superhero. Superb commentary and general vibe as always from the FATT crew. Always enriches my understanding and appreciation of the show being covered (from a baseline of 0% in the case of Hunter x Hunter)

  • extremely fun podcast, if a little rough around the edges

    Love listening to the intelligent and differing takes the whole group has on all of their media, especially ones I’ve seen before that I get to revisit and see in a new light with insights that never occurred to me before—it really feels like I’m watching/rewatching beloved (or beloathed) media with some friends :) Also, really funny, can’t emphasize that enough.

  • Even when it’s bad it’s good

    It’s a bummer when episodes are less than 3 hours. Favourite Italian food is puttanesca; all the umami you need in a dish for the people. I need them to do a Gundam season.

  • Terrific!!

    Funny, exhaustive, sometimes exhausted examination of media both deserving and unworthy. We endured the mental famine of Shyamalan, and now Sylvi is giddily steering us towards a Sopranos feast, and ooo baby we are eatin good!!!!! Puttanesca is my favorite Italian dish
