  • Identity Crisis

    Jon & Nick as hosts are great, not so much the show’s producer Jesse (genuinely just sounds lifeless everytime they talk) BUT I honestly feel like this podcast has such a identity crisis and has for a long time.

    The format just doesn’t work. The show may be 2 hours on average but the majority of that is spent on intros, some random “name a game” segment & community questions that aren’t really related to any of the shows topics. It genuinely frustrates me how much wasted potential there is here... more
