God-Tier Podcast

I feel like my brain had an aneurysm when I found this because I could not believe it was real. This is the best podcast about one of my favorite shows ever. You guys make me laugh every single episode and your insight is so awesome. Thanks so much for this, this podcast means the world to me.

Loved it!

Ruth and Michelle have such a lovely friendship that dances all throughout the podcast. They have made me laugh so hard many times with their acknowledgement of the silliness and the pure magic of Merlin. And I too was impressed that Michele did not propose to Bradley James. I’m not sure I would have had the same restraint. I love him too.

Amazing and Fun!! LOVE IT

My cousin introduced me to both BBC Merlin and this podcast and I fell in love!! This podcast is AMAZING and I love the critical analysis of each episode. It brings in a fresh perspective and clears up questions and thoughts I have had, and is a good podcast to listen to for first time listeners of BBC Merlin. Definitely one of my favorite podcasts and I am totally recommending and preaching the word to everyone I know! <3
