Customer Reviews
Going deep!
Very grateful for the dedicated Jo & Mal channel and the (v.v.) deep dives into all things fandom.
Engaging, smart and hilarious, these pods are always a welcome edition to my ear holes!
Scrolls not Trolls
The House of R podcast is like the Room of Requirement at Hogwarts, magically adapting to your fandom needs. With hosts who possess more knowledge than a TARDIS, they seamlessly navigate the realms of Potter, Who, Thrones & Rings + more. like the Council of Elrond discussing their impending journey, but with lightsabers.
However, it seems someone gave them a 1-star review, which is worse than any villain in these beloved shows. Clearly, they've missed out on a podcast that's as epic as a Star Wars space battle.
The best in the business
So pleased they’ve got their own feed to spend more time exploring some of my favourite pop culture. I listen to a LOT of podcasts and Joanna and Mal are the best in the business at what they do. You’re in for quite a ride. Allonsi!
