Customer Reviews
Best gun/hunting/cooking podcast
From the genuine rapport the hosts share with one another and their guests, to the casual-yet-educational discourse, to the varied and interesting subject matter, one can rest assured of a good show no matter what. I have listened to so many drunk redneck gun podcasts - and I say this as a drunk redneck shooter - that this was a refreshingly sober and humorous take on the genre; there is no episode that fails to either educate or entertain or both with superb production value tacked on as a bonus.
Great podcast!
This is literally my most listened to podcast show. Whether I am trying to learn about a particular topic being discussed or simply following for entertainment. Mark, Jim, and Muckipedia do a fantastic job with this podcast.
Fun show
This latest one kept driving me crazy with the one guy saying, yeah, ok, exactly, mhmm, yea every 2 seconds. The regular shows are usually great. I never leave bad reviews it jus drove me nuts.
