Customer Reviews
Amazon Music Podcast
The official Xbox Podcast was available on Amazon Music but is no longer supported. I hope Microsoft & Xbox can bring back the official Xbox Podcast to Amazon Music. Microsoft & Xbox customers listen to podcasts through different sources. Although Music and Podcasts on Amazon Music are not as good compared to Spotify and Apple, Amazon Music is still a viable platform for audio entertainment.
Podcast is surprisingly even better
..I’m not sure what it is, but I’m really liking the podcast flow and discussions between the co-hosts.. I was worried the show would take a dip after Major Nelson leaving, but wow.. I’m loving it. keep it up guys :)

PS is better than Xbox. Xbox is terrible but your podcast is still good.
