A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

These two are masters of mini painting and talking about tangentially hobby related things. Great podcast, would recommend to anyone who knows what painting miniatures is.

CoolGuy-0 · Dec 2025

Whether it’s a great laugh or a serious conversation watching this podcast is a good time. This is the only podcast I listen to and for good reason. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone in or around the hobby!

Brennamo138 · Jul 2025

When it comes to the art/hobby of miniatures, and nerd culture in general, Jon and Scott are extremely insightful, and hilarious. My tabletop quality painting skills and general enjoyment of the hobby have significantly increased (along with my sugar intake) since I’ve become “TUP-aware”.

Spewey42 · Jan 2025

Wether you have a love for chickie tendies, Mountain Dew, or painting minis, listening to Scott and John talk about them is can’t miss entertainment. Saddle up and join the goody pp nation. You won’t regret it.
