Though it’d be nice if the bloke who isn’t Yahtzee cleared his throat before recording

Meh
I’m a huge fan of Yahtzee, but this just doesn’t work. Yahtzee sounds like he’d literally rather be doing anything else and has no chemistry with the other hosts. Increasingly, more than half of each episode involves reading superchats that are either cloying or refer to something one of the...Read full review »

I really enjoy the podcast. It’s insightful, entertaining and I look forward to each episode every week. One thing that is an absolute nuisance now though is the repeating of the same advert about Anchor. I don’t mind the adverts being in the show to support but please record a new Anchor...Read full review »

I’m glad you found your way back to the front of the camera! Everyone else is good too.

5/5 stars.

The hosts have no interest in any topic besides the current gaming hype. They show profound ignorance of history, language, and any kind of culture (gaming or otherwise). Their lack of intellectual curiosity makes for boring discourse, and any time they blunder into an interesting point it’s...Read full review »

Jack Packard seems to have little to no talent when it comes to riffing off his co-host. He'll often default to just laughing (mostly at things that aren't jokes) while he collects his thoughts before saying something (if he does at all). More often than not, Jack will try to flounder for...Read full review »

Yahtzee and Jack are the best business acquaintances on the internet. 5 Stars.

Love Jack and Yahtzee and love hearing them discuss games!

Joking in the title of course, I am fully hollowed and proud. Being a fan of Yahtzee Croshaw’s is much like trying to befriend my mother’s cat. I can get pretty close, and using certain methods of communication, I can almost feel like she’s my friend. But there’s always the looming threat that...Read full review »

Often a bit ramble-y, but the hosts have great chemistry and really know their stuff. Many thanks for a good show, guys. If, like me, you also like this, be sure to check out The Escapist on YouTube & their own website, too.

the clash, the improv, the wit. also, the deadpan and the laughs.

I’ve been a fan of Zero Punc since inception, and own several of Mr. Croshaw’s audiobooks. When I came across this podcast, I was really looking forward to a slower-paced look into the reasoning and rationale for his and Mr. Packard’s views on video game issues and such. In this episode (1/25/21,...Read full review »

Been a fan of ZP for years, fell in love with Jack because of this show. I love how you explore both sides of the argument and really break down both sides regardless the topic. Thoroughly entertaining.
Fuzzy Freestyle via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/28/20
I greatly love the conversational approach to these topics vs the cartoon/animated show. Jack is at his best is when he is relaxed and not putting on a persona - which is more a kin to his “previously recorded” days with Rich Evens. Ironically, it’s the opposite for Yahtzee (better when he’s...Read full review »

Zaqthorn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/27/20
So enjoyable to hear these guys talk about their genuine opinions, don’t enjoy YouTube where they rarely argue what they believe in, so ignore the YouTube show and just listen to this!
Jecs27 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/25/20
2 guys talking about game topics who are informed and funny and just cynical enough..
MrPitstop via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/22/20
8/10 -great to listen to when you’re idly playing something -Discussions are actual discussions and not black and white arguments -Hosts have respect for different opinions -Yathzee but he sounds happy to be there

This is so much better than the scripted bit. And easier to listen to in the car 👍
The Ship's Cat via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/28/20
I’ve followed both for years and they make a fantastic team. Their opinions are fair, informative and they always provide an in depth explanation of their viewpoints. I recommend this podcast to anyone (especially old folks like me) who prefer a more mature discussion on the subjects they...Read full review »

These guys always provide great points and listening to them debate is always thought provoking.
RonaaFunk via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/29/20
This podcast is brimming with dry, witty banter between long-time video game developers and enthusiast Yahtzee and Jack. Each episode consists of a mixture of off-the-cuff and well-structured video game design critiques and analysis with many laughs and is a great accompanying piece to the...Read full review »
Chris Young Nation via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/26/20
Although this series is (currently) the after show of the available elsewhere Uncivil War, this no-edit show is easily its own entity and is a perfect short run showcase for two well respected games journalists have a short chat about the subject at hand, and design at large. It’s a well done,...Read full review »

Longer form discussion might seem out of place for the snappy review guy, but it is a welcome change of pace to hear some of the thoughts behind the knob jokes.
kakalauncher via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/12/20
I’m not a huge fan of the animated version of the discussion, but the podcast version provides great analysis and insight into big videogaming topics.
FillerBunny via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/04/20
I don’t think it is the greatest thing ever, but it is very good. I think people expect the Yahtzee persona of “Zero Punctuation, “ the swearing, glib reviewer, but he doesn’t appear much in this series. It is not the swords out, bloody, no-holds-barred argument that people expected. However, the...Read full review »

I’ve been religiously watching both Jack’s and Yahtzee’s programs for a decade now. This show could not be more up my alley, but I’m going to stop listening. Publishing this show synchronously with content exclusive to the Escapist website creates too much hassle to listen to a half hour of...Read full review »

I love this because the topics are interesting, but the two are pretty light hearted in it. They have good arguments but never get mad at each other.

Anything with Yahtzee on it... COUNT ME IN. SIGN ME UP

It’s good
some reviewing bloke via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/20
In our wild and constantly changing industry, Yahtzee has the most thoughtful and coherent voice, drawing from his experience as a critic, journalist, developer and author. But honestly listening to him watch paint dry would still be entertaining, he’s just that witty.
