  • I'm so tired of this

    If you would love to listen to a good show about video games and nothing else, just keep looking. I have listened to this show for over a decade, but I have now listened to my last episode. The hosts just cannot help themselves and feel the need to insert their own political opinions/agendas into the show. I listen to podcasts to get away from all that toxic junk. The best part of this show now is the theme music - other than that it is awful. It's a shame, because it used to be so funny an... more

  • Driving in my car wouldn't be the same without these guys!

    If there's only one complaint that I had, it would be the non-existent schedule PPR releases their episodes on.

    The podcasts are so good that it doesn't matter though, everyone should download them today!

  • Excellent show, great personalities, and fun to listen to!

    I've been a fan of PPR for years, and it's ALWAYS been very enjoyable to listen to. It's never stale, always has good coverage, has quite a bit of variety, and usually at times, it leaves me in tears from laughing so hard. I can't recommend it enough!

  • Gaming podcast gold!

    The best thing I can say about PPR is that it doesn't feel like you're listening to a bunch of self proclaimed game aficionados who are completely out of touch with their listeners. What you get instead is a group of genuine and hard spoken guys who illustrate their points, and are just plain natural about it.

    They know their games and this podcast is one of my favorite "conversations that I wish was apart of" shows on the web.

    The talks these guys have are cool but they're really dumb about COD...they should play it again before they judge.

  • One of the best!

    Press Pause Radio is a wonderful podcast filled with a wonderful cast of characters. Their outlook on video games is typically very open minded and refreshing, and I love hearing their take on EVERYTHING. I highly recommend this one! ^_^

  • Fantastic

    The thing that makes PPR fantastic is the mix of humor and serious conversation. They shoot out dick jokes left and right at the beginning of each episodes, but when they get serious with their topics they keep things serious, mature, and interesting. Truly a podcast that deserves much more attention than it has.
