Customer Reviews
Good stuff
Very nice show. Great topics with candid discussions. Keep it up guys. I'll do my best to spread the word.
This is a terrible podcast.
All of the people on this podcast have either zero personality or are extremely irritating. They seem to be purposefully trying to perpetuate the stereotypes of the dorkiest individuals on the planet without possessing any actual information. Their coverage is plagued by factual inaccuracy which seems to stem from some kind of laziness. It is fairly common for them to be on camera talking about something, then say “I should have prepared for this”, why can’t they stop the camera, prepare, and then film the segment? Another frequent annoyance is when someone off camera is giving the person on camera the information, why not jut put that guy on camera, its not like they could be any worse at public speaking than the guy that is currently on there, and at least they know what they are talking about, I would rather watch something with the guy standing around off camera. Their interviews are laughable, for example their ECCC coverage consists of badgering every creator with the same inane list of questions instead of actually asking people about their projects. The production values of the podcast are quite good, they clearly have someone who knows how to record and edit things well, but every other aspect of the podcast is absolutely painful.
Great show!
Not very often do you get to see a comics video podcast. These guys do it well and they're entertaining! Keep it up!
