Great Show

I’ve been listening to this every week for almost 2 years, gives me great advice and keeps me interested in the wow community. Thanks for everything and keep up the good work!

The BEST wow podcast!

This is the podcast that got me hooked on podcasts! I’ve been listening to Spencer and Jason for just over a year now, and this review is long overdue! They have a consistent and easily digestible format that is very hard to find in other podcasts for this game! They speak clearly without talking over each other, and it matters! I don’t want to miss a word of what they are saying, as it’s all so very insightful and helpful!

The range of player experience between mythic raiding and mythic keys is also awesome to hear about - as I don’t raid often but I feel like I could jump in and not miss a beat. I wouldn’t dare run a key before hearing their input on the weekly combinations first! They make my long commute bearable! My only complaint is not having enough to get me through the week! Thank you for continuing to be the wow podcast standard! Jobs done! Lol

Best World of Warcraft podcast ever

A great, high quality podcast that covers everything you need to know about the World of Warcraft on a weekly basis. I’ve been listing for over a year now.

I need to thank these for guys for the motivation and confidence to start trying mythic plus. Which is now my favorite mode. Started with a +2, five weeks ago and timed a +14 a few days ago. All through LFG and as a feral druid to boot.

I look forward to the show every week, keep up the great work.
