What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Love these guys, love and prefer this more general format relative to Past Gas (though it’s great that they both exist). But the timing of these ads and the way they abruptly interrupt the show sometimes mid-sentence is kind of embarrassing. Horrible listening experience and with the production capabilities Donut obviously has I’m shocked they haven’t integrated them better.

AstralSmut · Jul 2024

I love donut and try to consume anything donut related. The podcast are for the most part very well done but the background laughter outside of the main hosts needs to go. It’s the main thing that pushes me away from listening as it comes off as a distraction and half baked/unprofessional. Everything else is great and well put together outside of that.

Peachtree1798 · Apr 2024

I have to say, I enjoy Talk Talk Nation. I guess I’ve always liked the interview style of podcast, but the ones I’ve found on this app aren’t often on the topics I enjoy. This one, though, is great. I’m a bit bummed that The Big Three had to end, but this is a pretty good replacement.

AnonymousReviewer450 · May 2026

The hosts, format, and content are excellent. They get some really disappointing sponsors. I’d really like to see them ditch the predatory gambling ads.

Faceplant Cookies · Sep 2024

Ever since James left the podcast, it has been a random heap of personal conversations that don’t have anything to do with the premise of the show. Your latest episode, for example, is just basically a conversation for more than half of the entire thing, when it should be a lineup of automotive news and stories, like how the show started. Another thing is the name, “The big three” it can’t be The Big Three if you can’t get a group of three consistent hosts. I usually don’t like to give bad reviews, but I can’t just watch my former favorite podcast go down like this. You guys have to fix this or everyone that liked this podcast for what it was, A good automotive news podcast with three solid hosts, are going to leave. Donut is one of my favorite YouTube channels to watch in podcasts to listen to. Take it from me. I literally have a donut sticker on the speaker that I’m using right now, I have a big poster on my wall with your logo, and a T-shirt in my closet. I DONOT WANT TO LOSE DONUT. (that was a bad joke just like the ones that they say in the podcast now) just please fix this podcast. Thanks

That random guy on the drums · Dec 2024

Lately this podcast feels like it’s become more ad reads than it is a podcast. The ad breaks feel randomly inserted and the pod itself is starting to feel really disjointed. Sometimes the hosts just chat, which is fun, but sometimes it’s incredibly structured and feels inconsistent. I think the chemistry is good and I don’t mind rotating hosts, but I feel like this podcast is starting to lose a central identity, I’m never sure what I’m tuning into anymore. On a side note, that Angie’s List drives me bonkers.
