“I’m an archivist that spends a lot of my workday scanning, filing, and sorting things and you can be sure Mary and Blake are constantly on my podcast feed. The dynamic between the hosts is lovely - these two are very funny, sassy, and smart! They bring a unique perspective to their recaps, that I...”Read full review »

“Love the commentary on the show and a few other they’ve done. Love the addition of Mary’s dad , the GbG’s are great and the listener feedback is like hearing your friends comment about the show. Team black needs an Uhtred of Bebbenaburgh and the war is won 😂”

“Every episode I finish, I immediately think “what did Mary & Blake think about this episode?! Did they pick up on things I did? What did they see that I missed? And most importantly, what did Mary’s dad think?!” 😂 I cannot wait for their episode on House of the Dragon episode 6. I found them...”Read full review »

“Love the show, as I have loved their other shows. Unfortunately for other TV podcasts, I compare them to what Mary and Blake have done and will likely follow them to whatever they do next. Would love it if they did something Downton Abbey or The Gilded Age or Poldark. Continue the great work.”

“I was reading the book and I realized that the first episode of the House of the Dragon where Aemma Arryn has a C-section is actually inaccurate.

“In the latest episode 1.09, Blake sympathizes with Aegon saying basically he is the way he is due to not having his father’s love. Excusing all his monstrous behavior. He is not a teenage kid who acted out in high school and stayed past curfew. He is a rapist who feels no remorse for what he does...”Read full review »
