Customer Reviews
My favourite listen
I could listen to Liza and Kara talk about anything honestly. That they talk about one of the best shows ever is a bonus. Feels like hanging with friends - who are funny. Ive never re-listened to a podcast before but I have listened to these through multiple times. Since I started listening at about episode 9, i can happily go back to the start and its just as good if not better
Changed my initial rating
The banter at the beginning of your podcasts are just mind numbingly draining and goes on forever it seems. That’s fine keep the talking going, but maybe in your show notes put a break down and say the time you actually start the proper SVU discussion. 0:00 - Netflix special 15:13 - ads 28:45 - the actual SVU podcast begins. The shows went from starting 10mins in, to 18mins to nearly 30mins of countless drivel and ads. Some or dare I say most people just want to hear the SVU breakdowns. You both do great breakdowns, explain the true crime well and have some good interviews. Don’t ruin it by making us have randomly fast forward through countless minutes to try and find the actual thing we signed up for in the first place. Or other suggestion, start off with your breakdown, true crime and interview, then do your 30mins of endless chatter. You need to do better - joey swoll
Covers it all
I love how funny and smart these two are. There’s so much humour and so many pop culture references that make the podcast so entertaining but equally the coverage of the episodes and real cases is covered with insight and respect. And professional and informed interviewing skills with quality guests. I’m hooked!
