  • Honestly

    Great podcast but have to deduct a star for Chris killing my OCD by constantly saying “honestly”.

    Stop. We believe you.

  • My fave TV analyst podcast

    I go in and out of podcasts but this and Stuff You Should Know are the only podcasts I have been listening to for over 10 years. They do a great job balancing deep diving the show they are talking about and silly side tangents. Chris and Jason’ complimentary senses of humor is just lovely. I am so glad they pick up other shows when there is no WD on.

    Love these guys, whether they’re engaging in insightful discussion of the show, or pursuing a hysterical tangent

  • Season 3

    It says it would take 1-4 weeks to sail to England. Love the pod but the one dude says these things like their facts without doing any research and people listening are probably knocking the show for no reason

  • A-gain

    Great podcast but have to deduct a star for Chris killing my OCD by constantly and pointlessly using “again” as a transitional word, while pronouncing it as “a-gain”.
