  • It's usually a pretty good show and overall a fun, unique idea for a podcast. Unfortunately one of the hosts(I think it's Joe) is a jerk that hates everything and is always too cool for school. The other hosts are fun as long as it's a show made after about 2005. Anything before that, the episode is mostly pearl clutching at how "offensive" it was and constantly saying "you couldn't do that anymore".

    Jay(the main host) is usually pretty great on keeping them on topic.

  • Heard one episode and I was hooked!

    I started listening because of one episode that I found, and have been hooked ever since! I’m binging all the past episodes and here are my thoughts: 1) I end up watching shows that I never heard of because I have to see if I will like them. 2) I love remembering all the pilots of the shows I do love. 3) the way the guys talk, makes me feel like I’m part of their friend group. After a ton of episodes, I feel like I’m in on a lot of their inside jokes. I highly recommend this podcast!
