… magazine (see episode 71) and stayed to hear my brother Paul tell the world about my propensity to run away and hide when quests were getting a bit scary! An enjoyable listen, thanks everyone.
Rather reflecting the show it discusses, this podcast started out as must-hear. Sadly, after two fantastic series, the quality dropped a little in the third and noticeably in the fourth. Sorry, the addition of Jake is a little like when Pickle came on board the show.
Sadly the hosts are sufficiently comfortable now to use their pod to peddle excuses and conspiracy theories denying the roaring antisemitism in their political party of choice. It’s sad to see their hard work on Knightmare fandom go to waste because they can’t keep their, at best, knowingly controversial political views out of the pod. Less escapism and more a platform that’s convinced a couple of knobs that their opinions on something other that Knightmare are of value.
Key themes from listener reviews, highlighting what works and what could be improved about the show.
