Sevokevo Royuki ,

Great episodes but has lost alot of flare!

I have quiet enjoy listening to the On Demand Episodes and mostly all the other Podcasts brought to us by the Beasley Media Group. However with the recent changes and the lost of Nate Bender... The shows and the Podcast has lost its flare and has been changed sadly not for the better... A good part of me misses of how the show use to be and wish for it to go back since before the most recent staff that has happen. :(

Gremmmm ,

Highly recommend

This is an amazing podcast if you like gaming. James is freaking hilarious

Shoe doesn’t sound like they know what they are talking about

As much as disagreed with Nate’s options and views here at least make the show sound competent. I have never unsubscribed from a show faster than I did after this change.
