Entertaining AND useful!

I started listening for Angelo and Rhea as I have been a long time listener of there morning show. I keep listening because rapport between the three of them is great and like their back and forth. I also really like the way they structure the episodes. Equally as important, most weeks I come away with at least one show I want to check out! I started listening recently but have enjoyed it so much I have gone back to the earlier episodes to see what I missed!

Top-notch entertaining podcast

I look forward each week to new episodes. The format is excellent and Jay, Rhea and Angelo complement each other with different reviews each week.

Great show this week. Honest discussion of NFL commentators that you will not hear on TV. RetiredMaria

Tv show works

Hearing Angelo talking about anything but sports is new and different. Jay Black is funny and Rhea doing a lot of English show is great. Rhea is like everyone’s favorite sister . True Philly girl . Have always loved her. This show is fun and has given me more then just a few things to check out. They’re usually right on with their descriptions and recommendations. I do think they owe Glenn MacNow a nod. This show is exactly like glen’s “what are we watching” segment every Saturday. It’s just way more detailed . Give it a listen it’s light, easy and lots of fun to listen to.

Stop with the Spoilers!

Really enjoy the pod and have benefited from some recommendations but every time I hear “spoiler alert” for a show I’ve yet to watch, I take out my buds and mark the episode as listened to. Please work without spoiling the shows!!

Love the chemistry between Jay, Rhea and Angelo

Miss not hearing Angelo on morning radio so I subscribed to this podcast. Enjoy the chemistry between Jay, Rhea and Angelo talking about movies and TV shows. Well worth a listen on a walk or doing something around the house.
SuperBunches

Worth it.

I’m not even a big TV watcher, but this is a good show. The three hosts clearly have a nice history together and do a great job with their respective contributions. Their summaries of the various movies and tv shows currently available are thoughtful and concise.
