“These things are long and Jeff doing it solo has it’s perks but it can be difficult to listen to sometimes. I also feel like he doesn’t really talk about PLAYING video games very much. That part of the pod feels like it’s about 20 mins and the rest is news/emails. He does not seem interested in...”Read full review »

“I started listening when Jeff took over guest hosting this show. What a pro. It’s a one man show, and he has so much knowledge in the industry and so much to say that he can easily produce consistently great 3 hour weekly podcasts.”

“Jeff's podcast used to be something special, last 2 years it's just been in decline. It's definitely noticeable how bad Jeff needs somebody else to bounce things off and call him out on oof opinions and incorrect ideas. Ryan and Brad were always good for this.
I've noticed Jeff...”Read full review »

“Listening to Jeff compare the launch of cyberpunk to The Day Before was….either ill informed or purposefully misleading. In general he seems to know VERY little about the scandal with The Day Before but certainly has opinions on your opinion about it.”

“We are about the same age and have a lot in common. I have enjoyed his content and been a fan for many, many years but….Since he’s gone solo I can usually only listen to about the first hour of his pods. That seems to be where the meat is and the rest is just him solo rambling about the...”Read full review »

“Great place for a nuanced discussion about various games from an older, well-established perspective. Starting to get bogged down in talks of cultural or political issues with a condescending attitude towards people who might not hold the same perspectives. “Republicans buy sneakers too.” -...”Read full review »

“Easily one of the best gaming pods on the block. Fueled by sugar free energy drinks, and Windjammers —- Jeff has the knowledge of multiple gaming websites crammed into one twizted mind. If you want to listen to someone who was there since the beginning of time (gaming) then this is for you...”Read full review »

“Listening to this very negative take on a gaming podcast makes it glaringly obvious why Jeff ended up alone. An old, angry man, speaking nonsense, hooked on energy drinks. A sad state of someone who was once one of the greatest hosts in the gaming space.”

The host used to have a video game website called "Giant Bomb" which went sour when one of the hosts,...”Read full review »

“Gerstmann used to be silly and fun on top of his realist (sometimes cynical) view of the world. The most memorable part of this pod so far is him going off on how pathetic and cliche someone that still uses the term woke and pejorative is and ending this rant by calling said people basement...”Read full review »

Jeff is not like that. Though his show is still full of great energy, I love the way he breaks every...”Read full review »

“At this point I feel I can call myself a lifelong fan of Jeff Gerstmann, back to trying to watch him on Gamespot on dial-up. I will always love him, but after a year I find myself usually turning off his show in aggravation. His intentionally ignorant takes for comedic effect were fun when there...”Read full review »

“First off, Jeff is extremely knowledgeable on what he talks about. He’s been in the industry for a long time and it shows. He also has a very listenable voice, and you can tell he has a background in radio.
But man, the negativity. Not necessarily on the video games themselves (although he’s...”Read full review »

“I’ve been following and listening to Jeff’s podcasts since he was at Gamespot. I don’t agree with him on much but he can explain why he feels the way he does about games and I respect his opinions. I’ve always viewed him as like an “Eric Cartman” in the groups he’s ran in. Which is great. He...”Read full review »

“It’s nice that he out doing his own thing. He keeps things focused on video games and occasionally wrestling. And doesn’t bring up politics like previous podcasts. That’s the best part. I know a vast majority are just sick of hearing about it. Just games. And the wrestles.”

“I’m a big fan of hearing Jeff Gerstmann talk for hours on end. I wasn’t sure if it just being him would work, but it works better than I’d ever expected. This is a stellar ‘cast and I highly recommend it to other Jeff fans out there. A true bright spot in my week.”
