A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.
I really enjoy the wide range of show reviews and find the commentary both funny and engaging. It’s clear a lot of effort goes into the content. One suggestion would be to tighten up some areas — addressing technical issues ahead of time and streamlining the self-promotion and live show mentions could help the episodes flow even better. A bit more refinement with the sound effects would also elevate the overall listening experience. Looking forward to seeing the show continue to grow!

Kempire is such a talent in the podcast world. And he is doing such an amazing job covering and explaining the trial of the century. Kempire knows so much about both the legal and industry sides of the Coombs case. And it is apparent Kempire is devoting so much of his resources to coverage. Award winning.

Kempire has one of the best podcasts that are on right now. He is funny, he is compassionate, he has common sense, he is "Team Me", and he makes you think. He is entertaining as well. I don't know how he does it but the entire package is all we need. Thank you for all of your hard work Kempire 🔥🔥🔥.

I enjoy Kempire’s recaps more than the actual show. He has great energy. The organization of his lives are very professional. After he is done sharing his comments, he makes sure to include thoughts and opinions from his audience. I was very impressed by his interview skills when he covered Summer House Martha’s Vineyard. Kempire appears to be a hard worker and I think is great at his job. I hope his platform can expand allowing him to run reunions and interviews in the future.
