  • No chemistry at all…

    Been trying to find some good Nintendo podcasts since the switch 2 release… one of the worst ones I’ve listened to so far… wow… hopefully it was just an off episode… that’s all I can say…

  • WhatAShow

    I like the show. I like that they don’t use bad language. I like that the dude talks about going to church… which is uncommon nowadays. I like that they talk about things other than the new stuff. It’s a good change of pace. Keep it up.

  • Fun and down to earth

    I love listening to Eddie V and Corey. This is a great way to keep up with nintendo news (and general video game news really). I love how down to earth they are. It's like listening to my friends talk instead of some hyped up production. Makes it really relatable.

  • One of the best Nintendo podcasts out there

    The crew over at Pow Block is such an incredible group of people and hearing them talk about Nintendo games is never not enjoyable. These guys know their stuff and the conversations they have are not only interesting, but also hilarious every single episode. Highly recommend!
