What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I really enjoy the TMZ podcast, I look forward to it everyday. There’s nothing better than hearing Charlie Cotton announce the show with his Aussie accent. I like Charley Neff too. She gives a little different perspective on the stories. I am wondering why the podcast is getting put up later, I really liked listening earlier in the afternoon, and today’s show was posted maybe around 4pm edt. I just found it after watching both TMZ shows on tv today. Anyway, keep up the good work! Your show is always fun!

Ever since Charlie Cotton took over hosting, I now look forward to tmz podcast. He’s so funny and I love his personality makes the podcast so much better!

I keep listening to this podcast hoping that it will get better because I genuinely like the topics they cover. And it could be SO good if they would just stop talking over one another. Half the time it’s just the (4?) hosts arguing and yelling over one another. It also seems like some of the topics are only very briefly researched and much of the information is inaccurate. Based on the other reviews, I’m not alone with this opinion. I’m writing this review hoping someone sees it and makes some changes, because if it doesn’t improve, I have a feeling a lot of people will quit listening.

Loving this pod! So many fun and differing opinions. Good to see the different perspectives of certain & current situations. Can’t wait to keep listening to more!

Although, I appreciate the commentary on the podcast, the comments made by the all white panel about the NFL and slavery, lands flat for me because there’s no person of color, particularly a black person participating. How is an all white panel of reporters going to tell me as a black man, how the NFL scouting combine related to slavery is wrong. I would strongly recommend adding a person of color to your podcast, so you can truly represent America. Until that happens, I’ll delete this podcast from my directory of shows.

Charlie is a TMZ newsroom favorite. But he’s not ready to host the TMZ podcast. Almost daily he reminds us he’s not familiar with the topic his reporting on. He sounds like he’s uncomfortable reading the script. Thank goodness he has guests who actually can talk about the story, and give the TMZ feel while reporting. It is like the podcast is Harvey’s stepchild.
