“No one speaks like that Roger. Much less on a Podcast. You sound so fake. Please stop ruining these series. You did the same thing in Band of Brothers podcast. Please man.”

“I loved Succession so was excited when I saw this podcast was available. It obviously has some very insightful interviews, particularly with Jesse and the director, with some of the cast too.
I’m sorry to say it but I don’t think the host is a good fit for this. It doesn’t sound as though she...”Read full review »

“Not sure why kara swisher is hosting this. Succession is not a tech show. Pretty much every other podcast I’ve listened to on succession has been better. The host simply repeats the loglines and reviews of the show.”

“Podcast is a great source for insights on the show and getting to know more about the details and behind the scenes action. Taking two stars away because of the host who isn’t very good at her job. It would be a much more pleasant experience had they kept the previous one.”

“My main issue is the host, Kara, who regularly forces her own opinions and interpretations on both the listener and her guests which are oftentimes very different to ways the show could be interpreted. One of the beauty’s of succession is the things that are left out, leaving the viewer to make...”Read full review »

“If you scan the reviews of this podcast, you find the host is repeatedly being characterized as “insufferable”. I think that descriptor applies perfectly. I’m not sure why HBO decided to replace the original host - who was funny, intelligent, engaging and knowledgeable about the show with this...”Read full review »

“The previous host was so much better. Kara makes this show about topics outside of Succession. We don’t care about if this would be the same in real life. Let’s go back to talking to cast and their interpretations as it was for the first season of this podcast. Kara’s monotone obvious reading off...”Read full review »

“Potentially great and insightful interviews with very willing subjects are stubbed like cigarettes into wet poos by the hard cringe of the host’s bizarre sycophancy. It was a very weird stylistic choice.”

“The guests are a delight to listen to but the host proves almost as unbearable as the Roy children themselves. Her tendency to interrupt and contradict her guests, presuming to have more insight into the show than its creators and actors, is grating. So wish we have do-overs with a different host!”

“Kara Swisher takes up too much space to host this podcast. I’m not familiar with her other work, but she overpowers this podcast. She doesn’t create a space that allows the interviewees to organically share the information in their heads. It’s unfortunate.”

“Please - I’ve read the New Yorker article and I have very limited patience for the pretension of actors but listening to Jeremy Strong - brilliant. Genuinely think he made Ken Roy and that actually it was an important role. Brilliant brilliant”

“I think Jeremy is a brilliant actor and clearly went deep in this role. I wonder why most of my friends and family refused to watch the series: bad people behaving badly, they say. They’ve missed the point: abusive power versus tortured love. Modern day Shakespeare.”

“Yes it was but it wore itself down and become repetitive, later seasons it feels like an SNL parody of itself. The host of this podcast is interesting and as glib as the characters in the show. She describes the Roy kids as not being “hugged enough” uhhh they were emotionally and physically...”Read full review »

I just wish the host would simply host. I’m begging you, please re-record the last few episodes...”Read full review »

“Kara Swisher is a good host, but how does she get interviews in her day job? She makes no secret of her contempt for everyone she’s interviewed in the tech & business world. It’s hysterical, but wow—I don’t know how can she get anyone to talk to her knowing what she thinks of them.”
