So these guys are dorks, but not in a bad way, they’re pretty funny. Topics are mostly interesting. (I’m not much of a music critic so I could do without that aspect of the show, but it’s small enough that it doesn’t interfere with the main theme too bad.) My only other complaint is the amount of...Read full review »

Happy you’re back! Nobody does disaster like you guys!

Fun idea, but not a lot of research done, and my biggest irk is when they talk so quickly over each other and interrupt each other so often I can’t understand what they’re saying and at times it leads me to become so exasperated I shut it off. And it seems like they barely play a minute the music...Read full review »

I’ll start by saying that I discovered this podcast about 15 hours ago and have already binged about 7 episodes. I love it so far! The first part of their two part episode about Chernobyl was great. They really dug deep into the history of radiation and nuclear weapons, BUT once they got to...Read full review »

19 minutes in and they finally get to the point of the episode. Talk about burying the lede. You just have to fast forward past all the mindless babble.

These idiots said the Band was terrible. You have a right to your opinion but you have to also take the contempt you deserve for such a garbage take. They appear to be Canadian liberals, too, which is just icky. Morons!

Just discovered you guys! Very funny, informative, but where did you guys go??
KariCrawDaly via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/24/22
Show covers interesting topics while also keeping it light and fun.
Killer (Perfect Poise) via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/06/22
Some really interesting subject matter but, considering it’s all about disasters, it’s really hard to listen to when it’s presented in the style of Beavis and Butthead. Two men sniggering their way through endless, repeated in-jokes whilst trying to tell the tragic story of people dying in a...Read full review »

Finally, a pod where BOTH hosts give humorous, insightful commentary to the narrative. Enjoy the sidebars discussing subjects that are germane to the original topic and allow us to learn more. Keep it up.

Just starts listening, and I love it! I’m chuckling at the great banter between hosts, and discovering disasters I knew nothing about! So glad I found this podcast!

Isn’t there a Thames River in Canada too? How could this guy mispronounce Thames? Sheesh.
knewsuzy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/06/20
It might have disaster in its title, but it’s a delight. Interesting, detailed, and I love the banter between Peter and Lee. It’s one of the few podcasts I’ve managed to stay on top of during lockdown.

-1 star for having to listen to one of the hosts incessantly confirm every sentence from the other with yeah’s, ok’s, and mmmhmm’s.

The hosts are engaging and they tell great stories.

Disasters! Highly recommend.

I really enjoyed the first episode I listened to, up until your public service message, aka socialist movement. Too bad. One star for mixing entertainment with politics. No Stars for You. Delete
Fat-Chuddy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/01/20
I love how witty and funny these guys are. Nuclear Norm needs some more air time. I am a huge historical disaster fan and read any book I can. Listen to the podcast and.... tell a friend.
Miles__for__carson via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/30/20
The show mixes the right amount of funny, sad, scary and history. I have learned so much! I think the funny helps me remember the history. Great job guys! Love the sarcasm!

I stumbled upon this podcast like I do with many and I’m hooked. I m very bad a writing reviews . I’m realizing I really should give praise to the people who take time to entertain me. I was compelled to write this because at the beginning of the Chicago fire episode they where worried that...Read full review »

I just found this podcast yesterday while browsing the r/podcasts subreddit and it was recommended for fans of history. I’m really glad I did, because these guys are great! They have great chemistry. One host does the research and tells the stories while the other provides commentary. If you like...Read full review »

Not wanting to ruin your star rating so I’ll give you the full five as I enjoyed the Woodstock 99 episode. However the flippant tone of the Hillsborough episode felt wrong. Maybe it’s a UK thing as this story has never been far from the news with enquiries etc but 96 people died that day...Read full review »

I’ve been listening since the summer of 2019 when I needed a podcast to listen to on a road trip. Completely found this gem by accident and have been listening since. Even with my normal Monday through Friday commute being cut due to COVID, I still find time to listen every week. Highly...Read full review »

You guys are really hilarious! Love listening and keep up the good work! More Disasters!!!!

Found this podcast about a week ago and have been busy getting caught up! This show is as fascinating as it is funny! Highly recommended!
Kildozer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/14/20
Informative, funny and interesting! Cool idea to end each episode with personal musical tips based on the episode’s topic (and they have a good taste in music too). Great job!

Love this show. Always keeps me interested and always look forward to new episodes. -Tabby from Your New Best Friends podcast

I listened to the Woodstock 99 episode. Way to literally read us a Rolling Stone article, guys!

reob83 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/12/19
I love this show because I actually learn a lot from two cool guys that know how to laugh at the absurdity of it all. Woodstock 99... it had to be laughed at. So ridiculous! Thanks guys. Keep them coming. I’m still trying to learn how to convert metric... it isn’t easy
Cjo131313 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/09/19
But hey, we like what we like I guess. I will say that it grinds my gears when one podcaster says “it’s like, yeah, you know” and the co host says “yeah!”. Not great storytelling imo

It is so much fun to listen to them
ain't no time for this via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/19
What a great and unique idea for a podcast. The host are both witty and informative. I loved the St. Helena episode and I can't wait to hear more and more. LOVE THIS!Read full review »
Dannyboi7877 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/05/19
The content is extremely interesting and you don’t need to be a fan of the material to really enjoy it. I found myself submersed in the stories and wanting to learn more. Great show!
marcolololololol via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/05/19
I’m a big fan of this show. It’s super engaging and makes me feel like I can relive the most exciting parts of the story (or most dreadful) in a way no history teacher of mine has ever been able to do. Anyway, entertaining show that also teaches you something. It’s a total no-brainer - listen and...Read full review »
