X-Ray Vision

I enjoy spending time with J & R. Even when the material they are covering might disappoint or frustrate they celebrate. It has become difficult for me to engage with some long time favorite shows that operate in the nerd culture space because they have lost what is joyful about the work. J & R are careful, empathetic, intuitive, and so smart about what they choose to share with listeners. Always genuine, always honest. And a pleasure to listen to.

Rosie is really hard to listen to though. Like, take a freaking breath and let Jason get ONE word in

Jason was one of the best a most listenable podcasters in this space for years and now he hosts a show that is genuinely unlistenable and caters only to people who enjoy being gaslighted into believing that the MCU is high art. It’s fall 2024

Jason is the best in the business. Rosie is really really terrible. I’m not sure if I can continue listening she is so bad but Jason is so good I will keep trying. If she could at least stop laughing at absolutely nothing every few seconds with that extremely annoying cackle it would be a step in the right direction. I’m bewildered that Jason chose her as his co-host. The show would be better if he did it solo or with a parrot, barking dog in a public park. All of these things would be far less annoying than Rosie.
