What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

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!

Maggie Raggelina · Jun 2026

Genuinely funny weekly breakdowns of movies, trailers, tv shows and comics - I love the enthusiasm and silly, conversational vibe. This podcast truly brightens my week 🫶

giveitalisten29 · May 2026

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”.

Sh hacktasticle · Nov 2024

Look, we kinda screwed the pooch here in America this week so it’s good to have an escape from how terrible things might be. James and Maso are hilarious, insightful, and endlessly entertaining. Whether it’s movie news, superhero debates, or random tangents, their chemistry makes every episode a joy. Also, the movie about the video game that was a recruitment tool for space aliens they didn’t know the title of was the Last Starfighter. I didn’t email or tweet it, but there it is.
