Customer Reviews
5 Star
Love Jason & Rosie! Love the show. A little afraid after all of the thank yous today that the show is going away. Hope not! You all are the best.
Tough look for our guy.
This would’ve gone better with less Rosie. She was fun when she wasn’t permanent but then she was too much all the time.
Jason and Rosie Rule
I’m new to X-Ray Vision but already adore it dearly. Jason and Rosie provide insightful commentary and give engaging interviews with industry luminaries. If I ever say I don’t love this podcast, assume I’ve been replaced by a Skrull. Come say hi in the discord!
