Hosts constantly using acronyms I have no idea what they mean. Also always hearing sirens and honking cars in the background which is not great for listening in the car.

Extremely informative about the state of the streaming economy and entertainment industry more broadly. Julia and Jason always bring something interesting to the table

I’ve listened since the beginning, but was sad to unfollow today. The new model of a partial show is just disappointing. I don’t mind adding content just for Plus subscribers, but to take away most of the show instead, caused me to quit listening altogether.

I have really enjoyed this show, but I am disappointed by their new subscription model. I understand needing to find new revenue sources, but locking half of every other episode behind a paywall is not cool.

The hosts don’t seem to have a conversation. It’s more like you talk about his and I talk about that. Also not very animated. Boring

Downstream is a must listen, interesting and informative.. I look forward to each episode.

They know so much about the industry and articulate it so well. Also enjoy their personalities! Great pod!

The show provides a peek into the workings of the crowded, complicated business of streaming services. It explains what has the average viewer scratching their head. I like Jason on many podcasts, and he has polished his participation like a master. Julia has great insight & knowledge, yet I feel sometimes she gets so wound up, I just hope she will take a breath. It would be more interesting if her long explanations would be more of a discussion with Jason, rather than a monologue. Overall, this is a pleasant, informative podcast.

The hosts are great. The way Jason and Julia work together to set up topics and then dive deep into the nuances is so enjoyable.

I love hearing Julia & Jason discuss the latest in streaming and how the business side of the industry impacts us as viewers. Both hosts are incredibly well-informed, great at communicating, and fun to listen to! One of my favorite pods, and I appreciate the little crossover references from TVYM

I like some of Jason’s other work, so I was willing to give this show a try. I found that his co host Julia is a professional in the field who is so so good. Strongly recommend giving this a try if you’ve ever wondered “why the heck do these shows keep ending up on weird streaming services at completely random times??”

I’ve been missing Julia talking about Disney dudes and streaming wars on the Vergecast — here she is with Jason Snell! Sure to be a fine addition to the great shows on Relay. And maybe she’ll be on other shows to talk about movies!
