Reddit On Wiki

Best Reddit pod! Period! Their takes are down to earth and they don’t reach for crazy ideas without there being a solid reason for it.

I (34F) had made a Reddit account years ago, but didn’t start using the app until last year when I needed some highly specific work advice. A friend recommended asking the appropriate highly specialized subreddit, and I did so. (Got some great advice! Stopped my panic attack in its tracks.) Since then, I started browsing more, and stumbled upon this podcast by way of the subreddit. I decided to give it a listen, as I liked the idea of having other people curate the best Reddit posts for me. The first episode I listened to included a story I had seen about an OP whose sister cut off her and her husband when her husband made a highly political “joke” that was actually a threat against OP’s sister. I’ll admit, my first thought was, “Oh no! This show is hosted by three dudes. No way they’re going to side with OP’s sister.” That’s when S, J, and J put me in my place. Their outrage towards OP and empathy for the sister forced me to confront my own preconceived sexist notions. I had to admit that I’d been wrong to jump to the conclusion that they would side with the “dude” in any given scenario. Every episode I listen to goes further to prove how empathetic, witty, intelligent, and open-minded these three guys are. It’s such a breath of fresh air in today’s (American) political climate. I didn’t know “people read Reddit” was a podcast genre, but I don’t see myself ever needing another show in that subcategory besides this one. S, J, and J offer incisive commentary, mixed with plenty of laughs. I also seriously appreciate that they don’t waste time trying to adjudicate whether the post is real or made up. It’s more fun that they react to everything as if it’s 100% real! Their reactions are hilarious (especially when Sean hears about a relationship with a sketchy age gap), and I appreciate the thoughtful discussions that ensue. So AITA for liking this show? Nah, NTA.

I found yall on TikTok after I was hooked on other Reddit reading podcasts. Yall are my second favorite!! John is my favorite!!! I love y’all’s takes and I appreciate y’all’s point of view even if I’ve heard the story from other podcasts. I’ve gone back and listened to all of them (yay OCD)!! Keep up the great content!! I’ll be a Patreon soon!!!

Entertaining while also being a refreshing beacon of light in this questionable world. Keep doing what you do.
