What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This is genuinely one of the funniest podcasts I’ve ever heard. I listen every week. The only drawback is how much of a fan James is of Elon Musk. He’s constantly telling everyone what a genius he is and how he will undoubtedly save humanity. And if you ask him, he’ll deny being a fan of Musk. He may even deny it immediately after reading this. But he does the show each week under a giant poster of him doing a you-know-what salute, so explain that.

I'm probably your single listener in the all-important grandma demographic and I'm not interested in comic books. But you make me laugh out loud so I listen every week... and make the folks in the home (who can't see my earbuds) wonder why I randomly start cackling. Good job lads!

An absolutely incredible listen week to week! You never know what our favorite boys down under will get up to next whether it be talking about comic books, movies, or comic book movies! The only way this whole operation could be any better would be if ol James and Maso finally reviewed the Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson classic “Black Adam” on their flagship review series “Caravan of Garbage”.
