“Absolutely the best WoW podcast! So sad to see this end but understandably so and Scott closed this chapter with class and grace. I sit here probably knowing I won’t touch WoW again and fitting that the best WoW podcast is also closing up.
I found WoW and subsequently Scott and Randy in the...”Read full review »

“Ever since the Blizzard scandal, Scott’s gotten very bitter over everything (not just Blizzard-related), and lashes out and is pretty nasty to his fans on Twitter (me being one of them).
Over the years, in the recent past he’s taken very extreme stances on things he barely took the time to...”Read full review »

“Scott literally added a woman to the show because blizzard was sexist, newsflash it’s okay to have a show with only 3 males, no one cares if a female is present or not present …..doesn’t make you sexist or a bad person to have a male-only show. So dumb you adjusted this show because of some...”Read full review »

“I came in a bit late but have listened for a few hundred episodes at this point. Absolutely loved it, especially the lore episodes. BUT - then they moved away from World of Warcraft and created yet another “general gaming” podcast even though the host already does several others. 2/5 stars.”

“Reading through the recent reviews gives me the distinct impression that the same 40-50-something, pasty white, chin-bearded, asshat has made it his quest to make his feelings known. Congrats to you, you’ve successfully demonstrated just how small-minded, sexist and racist you are. It’s amazing...”Read full review »

All three of you are going way over the top with this, especially Patrick. You’re white men… and that’s ok! Just don’t be dicks to other people and you’ll do...”Read full review »

I’m not sure why you feel the need to be some sort of white knight when you already have created a place...”Read full review »

“I just recently decided to give WoW a shot since I was afraid it would be like smoking during college days. Once you got hooked in, it would have ruined my later life.
Well now that my adult life is ruined, I leveled up to 50 and am really loving it. And this podcast was a wonderful transition...”Read full review »

“When Scott, dills and turps ran the show it was awesome
I do like Scott, Garrett and Patrick but the knowledge has suffered with the changes. Dills was a good player before he left for hearthstone and turps was a natural comedian, I get he made a mistake and had to go but the show suffered.”

“Hadn’t tuned into this podcast for many years. Listened today to get the opinion about the China controversy. Disappointed to hear hosts talk out of both sides of their mouth. “What are you gonna do?” Is a completely cowardly response. Stand up for what’s right, that’s what you do.”

“They did not handle the past year or so well. Don’t like dueling hosts and lack of other voices. They don’t seem to really play the game or do it in a way to retain knowledge about it. A listener can do better for information.”
