This is my favourite podcast ever. It’s in the upper-levels of my favourite plain media too. It’s a comfort to me, it is an endless source of entertainment and I always can rely on wood and gang in hard times. I’ve listened to every episode at Least 5 times, and my favourite is friends giving 2024. So much of this podcast is great, but the new iteration lacks any of what made the early bits great. It’s missing the soul, the spontaneity, and the heart. Whenever they get off topic(my favourite parts of the show), wood quickly steers them back. The set sucks (sorry), the co hosts are idiotic yes men who just gas wood up and don’t bring anything interesting to the table, and the forced structure is upheld via bad animations. The role of an interesting producer is also gone as Brandon is never on camera and will never fill Ee’s shoes. It speaks volumes that my favourite episode in 2026 so far is the one with Scott the woz, because they were never on topic, and I loved that. The show is 5 stars. No contest, but this iteration is a 2-3. Bring back Nontendo live. Make it not a Nintendo podcast stoically covers news, but a fun, group Nintendo podcast that discusses topics such as news. There is a difference. Best wishes.
