DC Studios Showcase: The Official Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Ify and Fiona are easy to listen to. The interviews have some good content. The writing for the show however sounds like it’s from a marketing department and it’s distracting. Like hearing press junket interviews, a Cinema Con intro or Disney+ day pitch for a new show. We’re already watching the show, we don’t constantly need to be sold on watching the show. I’d love if the hosts were allowed more freedom like Phase Zero pod, but it’s sounding more like The Boys pod.

very cool and different approach to the companion podcast - very informative look into making of the penguin series.

I love it when a host has the ability to bring everyone together so it feels like I’m sitting at the same table. Really neat takes into the collaborative art that is TV/filmmaking and you really get a sense of what it was like in pre-production and during filming.

I love behind behind the scenes content but the host has a way to make all the interviews interesting and asks really good analysis questions of the show runners. Never boring and made a very dark show relatable.

The hosts have no chemistry, half the time their awkwardly laughing over each other, and the the questions they have for their guests just seem made up on the spot. I’ve made it an episode and a half in and it’s almost unlistenable. Love peacemaker and was hoping for some behind the scenes and good interviews this podcast is barely a fan show that wasn’t done well.

It’s a shame because this show does warrant a great companion podcast but this is so cringey and shallow. It’s cool they get actors to do interviews but what’s the point when they ask the dumbest press junket questions about nothing? I’ve heard Ify be funny before but seems like they are forcing him to be corny here. I wish HBO had outsourced to any of the thousands of great pop culture podcasters who could’ve done it justice and gave them the press and access to the actors instead.
