The content fills an unfortunate void in the education of most of us in the US. The research is deep and thorough. Season 1 was conversational and engaging. Season 2 on, though, feel like I’m listening to an audiobook narration of a textbook they wrote. Good information but not good podcasting.

It’s not easy to hear these stories, but kudos to everyone involved for being brave enough to tell them.

season 1 was hilarious and very entertaining. the show has gotten progressively more bland and academic as the seasons go on. still informative, but it seems like the hosts are reading off a script

An incredible podcast, well researched and produced- presented in a way that’s relatable and interesting.

An absolute “page turner” of a show. It has left me shaken as it exposes the genuine cravenness and greed that drive US foreign policy. We’ve been lied to for decades; the hosts present history in a straightforward way.

Great pod, you guys could keep the criticism of military Soilder’s to yourself though. Can be a little biased

An incredible example of what is missing in American media today.

It’s so good. You gotta listen!

Wow
A power hub of Pure information of an academic level - well researched, giving a new refreshing look at what is spoon fed through mainstream western media. Blurring the simple good and bad. Raising questions. Very dense Only downside- no critical questions on critiques of the western policies

blowback is fundamentally about the interventions of the US terrorist state, and the corruption of its Executive branch. it is informative and provocative, and it reports on the history in a somber and level-headed way. the score is an artistic touch, the readings are well researched, and the...Read full review »

Listening to season 1 now and hearing the exact words being used by America to justify war then being used now by Israel. Shocking.

A riveting rambonctiois revealing show, i await each new episode like no other pod.

This is brilliant but very frightening
Darrel Dog via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/18/23
Great show! Excellent production and fascinating. Really love the way they interweave history with pop culture references for context. Season 3 and 4 are their best yet. The editorial tone is so much more effective than the “two snotty lib nerds giggling in the garage” thing they had going on in...Read full review »

This is one of the best history/political podcasts ever!

Great info, great production, great timelines and good reporting. Real history
mrsix666666 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/23
Season 1 was absolutely brilliant, but during Season 2, I found myself questioning the very one-sided nature. While the US narrative of Cuba is cartoonishly evil, Blowback goes too far in the opposite direction. You'd think based on the season that Fidel Castro was the greatest humanitarian...Read full review »

Every season is great.

2nd time I almost stopped listening to this p cast over the corny mid Atlantic way they pronounce “Soviet” but it’s 2 good 2 quit production note❗️when there’s no background music for blend u need to lengthen the release on the noise gate 👍🏻 dialogue sounds amateurishly abrupt otherwise

It’s worth it just to hear Brenden trying to butch up his voice like he’s Tim Curry from Legend. 😂

If you can’t see how this is a grift than you’re an idiot. Also the online communities for this podcast is filled with some of the dumbest individuals you can have the misfortune of running into on the internet.

Season 1 is incredibly well-researched and produced. However $25 is a criminal amount to charge for Season 4 access.
coochiemane420 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/31/23
I’m halfway through season 2 and have loved every minute of the show so far. It’s been so incredible filled to the brim with stuff I’ve never known. And great production to go along with it. With the recent tragedy that’s currently happening in Palestine and the long history that’s led to here....Read full review »

Did Juche write Season 3 or something?

i’ve been looking for good info on the korean war and season 3 delivers exactly that

I paid the subscription but can’t find the eps to download. No contact info. I love their production but will have to cancel my subscription thru my credit card because again, NO ADMIN SUPPORT!

Amazing work
berniewon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/25/23
These guys put a lot of work into this but their hatred for their own country overshadows any possible objectivity that can be gleaned from this project. A “everyone is just and noble besides the US” hatchet job, which is a shame because there are good counter narratives they explore.
CO GoT Fan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/20/23
Noah and his goy charge $25 for a podcast. I guess that's appropriate, given the source. Me, I pirated the entire series and bonus episodes. In one bonus episode, Noah decides to take a characteristic cheap shot at one he and some other internet babies label an anarchist. Putting aside the...Read full review »

Blowback does a good job walking through timelines and history. Unfortunately, it is very one-sides and biased. For example, during the Iraq War episodes, they say the US was responsible for the mass death of the Iraqi people. They fail to lay out the facts in an unbiased fashion. If they did,...Read full review »

It is hard not to be hyperbolic about how good this show is.
Brettzle Chester via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/23
one of the best to ever do it.
houston(real) via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/29/23
Each season’s episodes grips me by bringing to life intense mix of politics, Lyle known history and personal memories. The hosts are skilled researchers and storytellers. I recommend this podcast to anyone who wants to know the truth about US involvement overseas.

Incredible show. Thoroughly enjoyed!

I LOVE this podcast. One of the best!

This podcast should be apart of history classes. Will give you a Moré honest prespective then most history books.
Chris Mobberley via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/11/23
In a world where people view politics through “winning wars” and a complete disregard for nuance this podcasts has shined a light in my life. It actually helps you learn, it provides perspective outside and enormous amounts of research and a production value that feels unbeatable.

Fantasic overview of the iraq war. Lovin it !!

The best podcast I have listened to. Excellently written, thoroughly researched, incredible production. You owe it to yourself to listen and learn about the full story of these unjustifiable wars.

I first heard of this pod through one of the hosts appearing on Wos BOMM podcast episode about the Iraq war- the season about Cuba and the missile crisis was a great listen. It could be a bit difficult to follow along to at times, but thats to be expected when listening to a deep dive about...Read full review »

Typical pro communist sympathy and how it was never done right/not allowed to flourish because the US didn’t allow it. This sums up every season.
