  • Better than the “Official”

    Started listening to this because the official companion podcast is such a disappointment, and this is EXACTLY what I needed out of a big bang deep dive podcast!! Love all the fun facts, and learning from people who truly understand comic book and gaming culture. Chefs kiss!!!

  • Nice find!

    Just started listening because I’m restarting the show from the beginning and wanted something to listen to in tandem. I watched the show when it aired live but dropped off around season 9 or 10. Not necessarily because I lost interest but life just got busy. Now hoping to get through to the finish! Love the discussion and deep dives on random things within the episodes. Can’t wait to get caught up with you all!

    I’m grateful for these guys! I was going through some major life transitions in Oct 2022 and turned to TBBT for comfort. I inadvertently found this podcast as well. I’ve been an avid listener for the past year and always enjoy the deep dives and tangents. It’s been great to see how this podcast has grown. Keep it up yall!
