“Edit: I’ve gone back to the very beginning of what’s available, and they are significantly more enjoyable. Ben , Carmella and Chris are great balances. Jonathan isn’t as unbearable, so maybe he’s just getting burnt out. Maybe I’ll jump back into newer episodes and see if it feels different now...”Read full review »

“I love trivia, and have been getting into trivia podcasts while I drive for work. This one pops up a lot, so I gave it a try. Unfortunately, I won’t be listening to any more of it for pretty much one reason: Jonathan. He’s rude and condescending to his guests. He berates people for missing...”Read full review »

“Johnathon is becoming more and more annoying. Whines about everything and has to explain every thought he has even if it’s not relevant. Cuts people off. Argues everything and is wrong half the time.”

“I have been listening to TWA for 5+ years and it has been delightful for my commute and my love of trivia.
However, ever since adding Zahkia I find it extremely hard to get through an episode with her. Her voice and unnecessary squealing is so obnoxious and hard on the ears that I want to claw...”Read full review »

“I thought it was just me, but after reading a number of reviews I see I’m not alone. Zakia is annoying, I find myself telling her to shut up while listening. Her laughing at anything she says is annoying if not maddening. I have deleted episodes just based on her hosting, without listening at...”Read full review »

“She is highly annoying. She talks incessantly and is the worst decision TW has made. I’ve been a listener for about four years, and Chris and Ben added so much to the show. I only listen when Zakia is not on.”
