Critical commentary? Not so much

“The hosts don’t provide critical commentary on games so much as talk at length about their own personal tastes and experiences, speaking in constant hyperbolic generalisations like “X is a bad game that no one wants to play” and “everyone loved Y”. As someone who hasn’t played a lot of the games they discuss, it comes across as extremely juvenile and lacking in substance. Another point of contention for me is their articulation — both hosts, but especially Jackson, always sound like they’re rushing to spit their words out as fast as possible, and I have to set playback to 0.75x speed for it to be listenable.
Overall, this podcast feels more like a conversation between gamer friends at a cafeteria table than serious media analysis. That might be enjoyable for some, but it’s not my thing (or perhaps I should say “it’s a bad podcast that no one wants to listen to”).”

“A great podcast about games, breaking down both games themselves and the systems that make them, a great listen.”

“I’ve really enjoyed listening to this podcast. I don’t play games that often but the host’s chemistry and passion for gaming shines through even when I have no idea of the games they’re talking about. Also has fun music breaks. High recommendation”
