Customer Reviews
Perfect easy listening podcast
Love this podcast, consistently long so perfect for leaving in the background when working/driving/dying with a hangover. Can get pretty sidetracked and off topic at times but most podcasts of this type struggle not to. Guys are super likable and entertaining
Deteriorated rapidly
I loved this podcast but the addition of Ben Pack has killed it (in the non hipster sense). His voice is like nails on a blackboard and he speaks over everyone like the Jackovasaur. Even Klepek was more tolerable. Listen to the Beastcast instead.
Do you like to laugh ?
Of course you do , you're not some kind of monster (are you ?). Well , you need GiantBomb coming in your ears right now ! Even if you don't like video games , heck , they spend 99% of the podcast just chewing the fat and it's heeeelarious. I'm not even being ironic (or sarcastic, whichever one is like rain on your wedding day). Also , you get the added bonus that if you listen to it while walking down the street , people will just get the heck out of your way because you are probably cackling like a crazy person . Oh mercy.
