How does this podcast have 4 stars?
It’s difficult to express how much I dislike this podcast without personally assaulting the 3 hosts. But I will try. To put it bluntly, this is a wussy boring podcast done by people who certainly care about culture but not in a meaningful way. Most topics are couched by one of the hosts saying “I haven’t seen it” then following the discussion offer their own woefully ill-informed opinion. Most of all, I dislike how they handle things they disapprove above; a sneer and a snort. It’s derogatory and insulting to fans of whatever they are snubbing their noses at.

They sound like really old friends hanging out and talking about the highlights of pop culture. They always sound like they are having...Read full review »
