  • 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.
