The Watch The Ringer

I like it a lot

Ok first listen a year ago, I thought this was a podcast with really smart insights into some of the best shows in this, the era of peak television. These guys aptly verbalize thoughts and perceptions that I have about the shows I watch that I’m less able to express not having the proper industry knowledge & jargon. I listen to this when I want to get away from my normal political podcasts...and the nonfictional world in general, and it’s very entertaining.

But the last few episodes have been absolutely grating. The first “Number One Boys” segment on Succession was so incredibly unfunny I thought they were trying to be terrible on purpose. Virtually no good insights at all. “Jokes” didn’t even register. Just awful. Maybe it’s the host changes. Hope it gets better again.

I love this show, and look forward to every episode!!
