The hosts put a lot of effort into the podcast and it definitely shows. Keep up the good work

U guys are awesome. Here’s why.. U do ur research. I’ve been listening since GOT. I’m a black guy, and much of what’s represented on the show I get, from references, special appearances and a sense of the times. I’m 40+, my parents grew up in the Deep South, me the Midwest. When they speak of...Read full review »

Great show and I’ve really enjoyed learning more from you both. I got into the show towards the end of 2020 and with everything I like.. I immerse myself in podcast to geek out even more. I’m a Black man from London, England and it’s sad to hear some of the person attacks you two receive. I can...Read full review »

I chose to listen to this podcast because I wanted a perspective from people who were not Black. As a black woman, I have a lot of people to discuss this show with. Some intellectual and some are not. Gene and Ash are phenomenal podcasters and I look forward to their viewpoints even if they are...Read full review »

Really enjoyed listening to this series and it filled in so many gaps for me while watching the show. Well done!

While I have listened to some of the hosts of this show do very informative 'casts on other TV shows, this podcast was not nearly as good, in my opinion. I was hoping to get some useful insight on a TV show I found somewhat problematic, the program instead wandered into the weeds on social...Read full review »

Let’s not make these folks out to be racist. They aren’t. Signed, A black person.
Drs123556 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/21/20
Terrible explaining and they never really break down an episode. Bye!
A.Alcindor via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/18/20
I listen to Ash and Gene to learn in a format I adore from westworld and GoT. I listen to the HBO official pod to learn about the black experience, which is why HBO gave us the podcast (finally). Thank you for what you are contributing. Appreciate you and your honesty, especially when it’s...Read full review »

Telling a middle eastern person and a white person that they can’t discuss racism because they’re not black and to stick to “white shows” is a fairly racist comment. I don’t agree with their opinions about 50% of the time but they’re providing a FREE show and intelligently discussing all the...Read full review »

These guys are trying hard which is the least we all can do. I like their point of view and more so love to contrast theirs to other podcasts.
Ardgin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/05/20
Per usual, you guys are doing a great job. Keep it up!
Valorieleigh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/01/20
You both have been super clear around your limitations in understanding the Black American experience, which inevitably leads to gaps. With that being said, going in with this understanding I have found this podcast to be in the top 3 in reviewing the show Lovecraft Country. Yes there is room...Read full review »
Coldbear76 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/01/20
Your lens of this series is white and you are rally not in touch with the visceral ownership that people of color have for this transformative and insightful storytelling from the perspective of non-white people. You other the storyline and the realness of the black experience, particularly...Read full review »

Couldn’t believe luck this morning when I found this podcast. Big fan of the Game of Thrones podcast. The most intelligent Westworld podcasters out there. Thanks guys for picking this one up
GarnMelBraxGrifRow via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/30/20
The show isn’t very good but the podcast is great.
The Redghost via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/29/20
Gene & Ash do so much research on all the little details of the show, it’s fantastic! I can watch on Sundays and then on Wednesday I learn a ton of things I missed along with real history & literature and more. Thanks for the awesome pod
Melissa Budzak via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/25/20
Bias and traces of racism in discussions of Lovecraft Country. Non black critics talking about and rating a show that you have no concept or knowledge of. Too critical & negative. I have stopped listening,& unsubscribe. Lovecraft Country is not a after school special or Goggle search...Read full review »

Pretty entertaining discussion. However, the podcast could do with some major research on colorism and racism in America during the time period depicted (to get started). An example is the VERY short discussion about black home ownership. It was much more complicated than discussed on the episode...Read full review »
shannonbeans1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/16/20
Yours is the only podcast I listen to for this show, other than the show runners/writers. Your cast is always insightful with a good range. Many podcasts that are not done by people of color either skim over the racial issues and insights or act like they are not even there. When does it get...Read full review »

Just started listening and I’m digging the vibe of the podcast. Each host is knowledgeable in their own way so they each bring something to the table. Also really like how they engage the audience and are open to learning things.
AshNYC via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/05/20
Agree with the caller that the discussion is devoid of nuance and at times uninformed. Didn’t appreciate how their concerns were dismissed - you should have Black guests on to discuss these topics and listen to Black people who are telling you that their lived experiences are not being...Read full review »

Smart people with wonderfully thick skins- Thank you for this labor of love!🙂
BenGajus33 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/20
I’ve been a shatontv listener for 3/4 years now and was interested in Lovecraft Country but stumbled upon your new podcast and my my excitement has jumped tenfold! If you need a poddy to help you theorise the next episode of just to understand what you just watched this podcast Is the one for you 💯

Why have you abandoned us?
Kevonski via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/19/20
Its nice to hear all the perspectives of this show. I know its a rush to get the product out but don’t claim ignorance and do the research on your phone during the episode. One of the points of this show is to outline the absurdity and horrors of racism in the 1950’s. The green book is well known...Read full review »

thebricker via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/09/20
I think this team will provide exactly what we need for this show! After reading the book “Lovecraft Country” and listening to their movies pod I think the intelligence, social justice warrior-ness and silliness of these three will cover all the bases!
SaraMarieU via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/05/20
I’m looking forward to having Gene back in my life! Can’t wait to listen to his take on Lovecraft. Some of the footage was taken in my town, Elburn Illinois just not sure what so I’m looking forward to that part or parts. I hope the show is as enjoyable as Big D is expecting. Love your work...Read full review »

Love this crew and all the different companion pods they put out. Always insightful and delivers perspective which differentiate them from other fan boy pods. Love the balance that each of the hosts bring and always well researched and thoughtful. Can’t wait.
Nickcobs via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/28/20
I can’t wait for each episode. Gene, Ashley & King 🐝 make a great team. They really research everything & dig deep into every episode. This is a must listen if you enjoy the show.
Cheesic23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/26/20
Match an all-star pod crew with another great HBO drama and the result is pure joy. Not sure if I'm looking forward more to watching the show or listening to the affable and astute Ash, the ever bold and blunt Bee, or our genuinely gifted Gene. All are a welcome reprieve!Read full review »
Twiiotch via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/26/20
Gene and Ashley take the time to really research and provide insights for each episode. This helps me get even more enjoyment from the show. They debate and engage the audience with their theories. They also create a fan community around each show.
LAdogmom via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/25/20
I’m here after listening to their Westworld, GoT, and Watchmen podcasts. They have always consistently given thoughtful, informed, and fair reviews that are often hilarious or even heartwarmingly personal. I love this podcasting crew!
CheesyFarts via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/25/20
That’s reason enough!

Love these guys and looking forward to hearing what they have to say. Already hooked!!!!!
Drew Zakmin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/20
I am so glad to see these podcasters back at their habit. They are bringing the big guns this season with Mr. Frowny Face King Bee, the overtly attracive Gene Lions, and the big brained and favorite of all Ash Schlafly. These three are smartest. The funniest. And the least annoying of the group...Read full review »
