What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I don’t always agree with their perspectives or takes, but these two guys know their Spidey history, and their passion for it is obvious. Their reviews were always thoughtful… but when they started doing retrospectives on spider-man history both in universe and from the pov the comic industry at large, they elevated their podcast to an even higher level. I love their creative team retrospective breakdowns. Big Time Recommend. Give them a listen.

Hillis1989 · Aug 2025

If you are a fan of Amazing Spider Man, this is an absolutely clutch podcast to listen to. Dan and Mark walk through each issue every other week and do deep and thorough explorations of the back catalogue every season. Also has great interviews. Thoughtful criticism and honest takes. 10/10

Vesuvio Cat · Apr 2025

Their regular, deep dive episodes are always fantastic but I joined the Patreon years ago because I fell in love with their reviews. I feel like they’re easily the best out there because they actually care about what they’re saying. Even when I might disagree with a final grade or a point, I have to give them credit for articulating their opinions so well and not just relying on the “hot take” style that is so prevalent today.

Fred Lanze · Feb 2025

Amazing Spider-Talk without a doubt, the best Spider-Man podcast. I have listened to several of the others, and Dan and Mark are my only must listen. They are thoughtful, respectful, and willing to hold Marvel editorial to task. They truly get the difference between criticism and just being critical. I am proud to be a longtime listener and a Patreon supporter.

uthrox · Jan 2025

I’ve been a longtime listener and I have finally hit my breaking point. The one sided political hate has finally driven me to abandon the podcast. I’ve been a spidey fan since I was 12 and this is the only podcast I can find that doesn’t insult my spidey intellect. But the politics are too much for me. I read comics to escape such messes.

Owen Lars · May 2025

I’ve been a long time listener of the show and learned a ton about my favorite marvel character as a result. I will no longer be listening, however, because these gentlemen just cannot help themselves but to interject political banter attacking only one side with each episode. I don’t listen to any podcast for politics. I also don’t require them to agree with me on politics. This was supposed to be a fun & entertaining podcast and you have abandoned your promise!
