Epic Universal Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I’ll admit I enjoy ALL of Jim’s shows and that includes this show. Jim stories, insights and background info make for an entertaining deep dive into the theme park down the world from the house of mouse. Justin rounds out the show with his past experience working at Universal. Keep me coming guys!

Eric’s enthusiasm is infectious! This is a must listen for amusement park fans!

Jim Hill is great and knowledgeable as always. Of all his podcasts, this one has the worst co-host. Dustin doesn’t add any special insight, frequently spends time on uninteresting anecdotes or get details of Universal’s history wrong.

Dump him and get someone who is on Jim’s level.

I'm a huge Jim Hill fan and a huge Disney fan, and I thought here's an opportunity to get to know more about Universal and the cool things they have done and are doing, especially in the theme parks. But I don't get that here. And after listening to enough episodes, I think I finally figured out why. On all of the other Jim Hill Network podcasts, Jim's co-host is an active expert in the area and is a strong and professional partner. That's just not the case here. Jim's doing a Disney Dish podcast complete with past, present, and future insights and info that's hard to get anywhere else. His co-host here is doing a dime-a-dozen fan podcast.
(As I was writing this, I saw Wddirector's review just below the dialog box; I totally agree with their review, but I'm more wordy).

...unfortunately, Dustin holds this podcast back. All of the cohosts on the Jim Hill Network have a great and easy-to-listen to rapport with Jim. Dustin, however, seems awkward and uneasy on the podcast. To top it off, he doesn’t seem like an expert with any inside knowledge, unlike Jim’s other co-hosts. I may be wrong, but you get the idea that you could plug almost anyone else on this show with Jim if they did enough internet research. No inside sources or information are necessary. Definitely the weakest show on the network.
