    Still enjoy listening but too much rambling at times. Used to be a lot more focused on a subject.

  • Room to improve

    Let me start by saying that to me, this is a bit of therapeutic listening when I’m winding down for bed. I enjoy listening to their stories, the random tangents, etc. not every podcast should be heavily structured and some should just go with the flow.

    However at times I do question why I listen. RDF, while I’m sure he is a very nice guy so this isn’t personal at all, but talking over everyone or shouting kind of ruins the overall vibe of the show at times. It’s just a bit needless.

  • So sad...

    I used to love this show. Listened for years and it's slowly eroded away to a shadow of its former self. Love the guys but the chat and content has lost its way. More game updates and stories about saves. Tactics garage. Game feature focuses. More FM! Love the bants but get back to more FM please 🤞

  • Used to be better

    How many episodes are we going to have just repeating the same thing about the state of the current game?

    Can we have an actual podcast that discusses tips and the new areas of the game perhaps?

    There’s a whole new engine, tactics are revamped. Maybe actually discuss things on how these work etc.?

    The whole show is stale.
