“Leave the unnecessary intro out about why you had to re-record the most recent episode…just start recording it. And please no more movie reviews…if you guys want to talk about other non-challenge related stuff start a new podcast.
Also can’t stand the way you guys pronounce “because” …it’s...”Read full review »

“I’ve been listening to these three goofs since day 1 and by all rights I should have 5 starred them long ago. I’d double up on these stars if I could cause it’s well deserved.
First off you got Zac “When did she get a septum piercing??!” Cupples, showrunner, pace-setter, knower and noticer of...”Read full review »

“Zach is gross- he thinks he’s the expert on everything is is exceptionally dismissive to not only the woman competitors but also to his own wife/co-host. Jake is slightly better but not by much.
There are so many other challenge podcasts out there at this point that unless you share their views...”Read full review »

“Sometimes it feels like I’m sitting in on a marriage counseling session. Everything poor Hannah says is wrong to her husband, Zac. Everything she says is immediately shot down and Zac loves to make her look dumb. It is just uncomfortable after a certain point. Even when Jake occasionally shoots...”Read full review »

“Zac, Hannah, and Jake do a great job of providing fun fan insight into the pod while also getting interviews. Whenever they criticize a person or praise a person they always back it up with what has happened on screen and are incredibly fair to all the participants of the show. They do not get...”Read full review »

“I understand this is a podcast about the show, but both Zack and Jake display such blatant misogyny. They never have ANYTHING kind, nice, or supportive to say about the female competitors on this show. Even when the men on this show act like total, complete jerks to the woman, 9 times out of10...”Read full review »

“I really enjoy this every week, but the men are mean to Hannah, they make fun of her so bad, it seems as though her husband disrespects her so much, she laughs and doesn’t get mad and most of the time it’s harmless, but sometimes I feel cringy listening to them go in on her”

I feel like Jake is respectful even if he disagrees, and Hannah has strong opinions and stands firm on them, and maaaaybe is a little rude about it... Zac, however...”Read full review »

When I heard they had done a rewatch of Rock of Love on their Patreon, I knew I had found my people. Keep up the great work guys!”

“Only give this a try if you want to listen to a group of Zach (on the challenge, not the host) apologists. From saying they don’t remember what he has said in the past that made him so hated (all his sexist comments) to more recently, “I don’t condone his actions BUT ...” before proceeding to...”Read full review »

For example, it was confirmed on Twitter that they dressed up bc it was...”Read full review »

“When the crew is talking about the show it is fantastic.

Please start time stamping, or save plugs to the end. Also you clearly value...”Read full review »
