    Love the Traidar
    Definitely my favorite Traitor podcast! I love how Matthew works through the episodes and hearing different thoughts and insights (and sometimes yelling at my phone when something is missed lol). I would 100% recommend!

    Mixed feelings
    I really like this podcast and love the main host, but find David obnoxious, negative and hard to listen to 😄

    Meh
    New listener I started out really liking it (Listening to the US recap) but this David guy seems to really have a huge problem with the House Wives and other non-gamer players and it’s really lame to constantly hear about it especially because he’s so annoyingly angry. I don’t even watch Housewives, but I have to say it’s not like all of the ā€œgamersā€ were winner cast choices either. I don’t think I will keep listening although I did enjoy listening to Matt’s thoughts on the show, game and strategies I just couldn’t get over the over the top anger from David

    Do better for US4
    Matthew is a knowledgable and decent host, the cohosts can be a grab bag, but man oh man David is a drag. If you’re going to continue covering US Traitors it would be good to not be entirely dismissive of the Bravoverse — do a few googles at the very least. It’s not going anywhere, and it’s why a considerable chunk of the US audience has gotten into this show we all love so much. By no means do you have to be a fan of anyone, but the repetitive humorless whining about what ends up being most of the non-male cast members is hard to ignore.

    Trying to find their footing?
    Pretty basic coverage.

    Love this recap!
    I love listening to these recaps each week! Matthew is a great host

    Used to be better
    I liked the podcast better before David Bloomberg became a mainstay. Matthew and his guests are fun, entertaining, and insightful; David is dry, unfunny, angry, and repetitive. The tone is completely different when David hosts, and not in a good way. I’m happy that at least the UK season recaps are still what they used to be!

    The best
    I love the care that Matthew and David put into each podcast. Insightful and fun. I won't watch the next episode without listening to this podcast. I would send ko-fi but it just seems to be in pounds and not dollars.

    The best around
    I appreciate the knowledge each host (& their co-hosts) have regarding competition reality. The banter between Matthew and his bestie of decades is my fave duo. There are people (such as myself šŸ˜‰) that adores all reality (competition and drama) so you should consider having a housewife/Bravo co-host at some point that drops in periodically. That way there’s someone on the pod that knows ALL the players. Some of us have watched since the inception of those Bravo shows (circa 2006) as well as the inception of all the other comp shows. Call me šŸ“ž lol

    Bloomberg is ruining the podcast with terrible coverage of US S2
    What a disappointment. This is usually my favorite Traitor podcast by far, but David’s poor knowledge of the players, along with two terrible cohosts for the first two episodes whose input suggested they knew little about the actual game, is bringing this podcast down terribly. I’ll be listening to all of the other Traitor podcasts except this one for US S2 coverage.

    Really good recap podcast
    These guys are really fun to listen to. So organic and insightful…good sense of humor. I really enjoy their recaps.

    Love it, except…
    I love this recap show! My only complaint is that when Joseph is co-hosting, his audio is really hard to understand, so much so that I sometimes skip those episodes entirely. I miss about half of what he’s saying because of the low-quality audio.

    David’s a dud
    I used to love this podcast, but with David becoming a more frequent cohost I’ll have to unfollow. Cannot listen to another of his Himbo rants.

    Best traitors deep dive!
    Love the episode by episode recaps of every season

    Tone down the misogyny and this podcast would have 5 stars
    It’s totally fine to go after a woman’s actions and/or comments - but as a privileged straight white man (David), do NOT attack a woman’s overall intelligence. Just stop, because it’s really gross. Dim-wits like Dan automatically are assumed to be smart and clever just because he won something and he’s a man. I can’t wait for Phaedra, whom co-host David constantly underestimates while praising nit-wit Dan, to bury Dan. I hope David chokes on his misogynist assumptions about women. UPDATED to 5 Stars BC it deserves it when self-important over-talker David isn’t on it. Traitors US S2 is the BEST TV I've watched in a LONG time.

    The best traitors podcast
    I can’t get enough of this podcast! As someone who doesn’t have access to watch the UK, Australia, or New Zealand series of the show, these recaps are just as entertaining as watching. Please keep making more episodes!!

    Amazing
    ā€œI’m being harsh about the missions because I care.ā€ I feel seen in every single way.

    My new fave podcast!
    I love this podcast. Matthew is a great host who has gallons of personality. He does a deep dive into The Traitors, with fun and knowledgeable and diverse guests, including many cast members from the US and UK shows. Very well produced, with fun regular features. I look forward to every episode. Highly recommended!

    Love this podcast!
    I was looking to hear further discussion of Traitors and so glad I found this podcast. The host is amazing. I just wish the episodes were longer. Thanks for an amazing show.
  • Three Chords and the Truth
    Deep dive!
    Thanks for the wonderful, entertaining, informative podcast. I love the format, the small deception on a show all about deception is a fun twist! Keep up the great work!

    Good Recap Show
    Love hearing your take on the show. Looking forward to more episodes! Great way to discuss the shows when you cannot get enough. For comparison’s sake, interestingly enough, the US version was actually filmed prior to UK version, though the UK version aired first.
