UNspoiled! The Wire

Almost finished only 2 episodes to go. All 60 episodes took about 3 months. Fun project I’ve been wanting to rewatch The Wire for quite a few years and stumbled on Unspoiled when looking for something else so I figured I’d give it a shot Roshawn and Natasha have great chemistry and would be entertaining whatever the subject While it only took me 3 months in real time it took a little over 2 years and it was interesting to appreciate their growth as skilled broadcasters over that time span. Some of the comments mentioned their going off topic but that was one of the things I kind of enjoyed It have the show a conversational aspect like if you were sitting at the kitchen table with them with the advantage of being able to skip ahead 30 seconds at a time I highly recommend trying any of their podcasts and it’s worth throwing a couple months of Patreon their way to keep the lights on Next up for me Leftovers or Justified

If you’re gonna do a podcast about a tv show, please know the story of the show. Know the characters’ names, who they are, who they are related to. Care about the show you’re talking about. Care about the listeners

Recently started watching the wire, so I looked for the wire podcasts. I was gonna give this podcast a try until I see there is an episode dedicated to the 2016 election. I give it a listen to just confirm what I assumed. Just some liberal spouting orange man bad. No thank you. Not only will I not listen to this podcast. I won’t listen to anything attached to this network of podcasts. Keep your politics to yourself. It has nothing to do with a TV show.

The Wire is the greatest show of all time and my favorite so anything to do with it I’m in! This podcast was so frustrating because of the host. She’s so unbearable I had to abuse the fast forward button just to get through each episode. The long tangents about nothing are the worst. The off base assumptions and taking everything so personal is very frustrating. Worst of all is her bleeding heart liberal takes from her moral pedestal, very disgusting. Rashawn was a delight and offered SOME balance but Natasha over powers her at times with her idiocy. They miss a lot of points and overall themes of the show because she wants to keep relating to her own experiences which would be fine if it wasn’t EVERY OTHER SENTENCE. So many times I wanted to scream through the phone and inform them about details that were missed or interpreted wrong. Rant over! I’m glad they took the time to watch and try to understand this iconic show but I don’t think they did it any justice
