4Player Podcast

Great bunch of guys here I’ve enjoyed listening to for years. Look forward to the new upload every week so I can listen at work. Only thing I’d say is Brad needs to try to not incite pointless arguments with Nick or whoever else. Although these guys have been friends for years, it creates a slightly awkward air.

Have been coming back to this show for well over a decade. Only podcast I’ve ever stuck with this long. Hilarious and informative.

This podcast used to be top tier when it came to substantive, in depth conversations about mainstream triple-A games and undiscovered indie gems. I learned about so many titles I never would have known about before and respected the discourse surrounding them. Unfortunately, a lot has changed in 2 years. They decided to add a HUGE focus on fantasy critic drafting which now dominates at least the first 30-45 minutes of each podcast. This is excruciating to listen to unless you enjoy lengthy meandering back and forth pissing contests. Once you get past all that, they *might* discuss the games they’ve been playing, but even then you can be sure that Brad will interrupt all of them to either belittle and demean them and their opinions, or assert his intellectual superiority in a mean spirited and uninteresting tangent. Apparently he thinks that this is entertaining (it’s not) and seems to have a particular fondness for taking Nick down, which very much gives bully on the playground picking on a girl he likes energy. Here’s a thought: get back to talking about your shared love of video games and what you’re enjoying at the moment rather than talking over and down to each other based on how many “points” your draft has. What a shame.

Honestly my favorite podcast of all time. Hands down. Keep it up guys.
