Not worth listening to anymore

“I use to listen to this show every week and it was a real enjoyable listen, especially during the Thanksgiving/Black Friday timespan. However, this show is so far gone and a shell of its former self now that I only listen to it every now and then and only if I have nothing else that week to listen to.
The previous reviews are pretty much spot on.
The 2 main hosts, Cheapy and Wombat, are hardcore leftists who cannot go 5 minutes without bringing up liberal propanda or talking points, many of which have already been debunked. Its basically a audio version of listening to Fauci or Maddow except its done by two middle aged men in New York with zero clue or understanding that there is a entire country outside of the coast and they play games too. Shipwreck to his credit avoids most of this and outside of talking about games that literally nobody every is interested in, I don't have a problem with what he brings to the show.
They barely even talk about games. Their 70minute podcast consist of 15 minutes of them talking about their boring lives or trips to Cartoon Network Hotels, lecturing the listeners about masks, orange man is bad, how people should get the jab etc. Then they talk about movies/shows in a segment they use to call "Watch this B's" but ironically renamed to not offend people, lol yikes.
At this point over the show is already over and you get some pretty boring and generic talk about newly released games. Then you have Wombat, a mid 40s year old man who obsesses over comic books have a segment where he discusses his gaming time on Fortnite, a game designed and targeted for 8 year olds.
You get some Q&A for 5minutes and thats a wrap.
It use to be a entertaining listen when they would talk about Wombat being the featured Xbox gamer, Horse rubbers in Japan, clothes hangar bathroom stories and such to go along with their gaming deal and news coverage. Now instead its just another podcast being used to push a far left agenda (which is fine if you are looking for that), but many people don't want that.
For the record, I don't mind political topics and conversation in a gaming podcast. But when its always one sided and its constantly in your face every week, it gets old and it gets old VERY fast. If you are looking for a real gaming podcast, I highly suggest Sacred Symbols.”Read full review »

“it's still an entertaining and lively show. I wish they won't cover so much news (others cover it better, sorry guys!), but Wombat and CheapyD have interesting discussions on current trends, games and more. Honest people giving honest opinions, what more could you ask for?”Read full review »

“Cheapy and Wombat put together an awesome show every time. They are real gamers and know what they are talking about, and work from an outline instead of a script. This is heads and shoulders above other video game podcasts, and is quite entertaining and informative.”

“The CAGcast is a wonderful podcast for any videogame enthusiast. While they generally don't bother with anything on the PC front, this is a great place to hear interesting and humorous commentary on console gaming.”Read full review »
