    Love this podcast!
    I have been listening to this podcast for a good 2-3 years, and it is my favorite. A lot of the conspiracy podcasts I’ve listened to in the past haven’t been the best researched or the hosts go way too far into their political leanings. You guys do touch on your political opinions, but it’s a conspiracy podcast, you kinda have to sometimes. I really do love this podcast (I’ve listened all the way through at least twice minus some of the sports based episodes, but sports aren’t really my thing) and Tim and Zach are incredibly funny. I have recommended this to many people and will definitely continue to do so.

    Great fun show, but..
    Don’t bother with the five minute bonus episodes. If you can’t extend it to at least 10 minutes I mean. 🤷‍♀️
  • Cleft owner
    Great show!
    Love it.

    One of the best podcast
    Very well researched episodes but the best part is their banter … very funny without even trying. Recommend!!

    Respecting then deconstructing
    It’s easy to ridicule conspiracy theories. It’s harder to do what these guys do — approach nutty ideas with respect. (See? Already I’m not showing respect!) Then they deconstruct the idea and show the aspects that do make sense and the ones that don’t. They don’t just ridicule crazy ideas. I learn as much about how to deal with these ideas as I do about the ideas themselves.

    Hit and Miss
    So, I listen to the show every week, and I have been for a while. Sometimes, it’s great. Other times, however, not so much. The overall problem is that these two chuckleheads sophomore credulous. They believe everything without question. And when they do question things, the question is pretty much lead them to confirm their own biases. I just listened to the haunted movie one, and they didn’t even bother to watch the movies they are covering. It’s like listening to someone read Wikipedia pages aloud. I suggest skipping it, though at times, it’s funny.

    i love u guys
    great stuff
  • Lucassster
    Great for when I’m traveling around for work
    Makes my flights and drives go by quicker while providing some interesting info about stuff I may or may not already know a little about. Keep up the good work!

    Great show
    Best conspiracy podcast I’ve heard. Anyone that says they are political are wrong or looking for political faults. Every topic is interesting from places in earth, mysterious situations, to even aliens and cryptids, each are very good. The sound I think is good, usually stay in the 3 quarter range of volume and hear fine
  • Nico/B
    Great show
    Love the show! Just starting listening and making my way through all the episodes in order!
  • Sophie 85379
    Getting too liberal for me
    I’m not affiliated with either party but this is getting ridiculous. These guys started off doing a pretty good job staying neutral and leaving politics out of it. Now they’re constantly pushing their extreme progressive beliefs. I just want to learn about big foot and aliens man.

    Don’t waste your time.
    Good thing these two are horrible, otherwise you might have to listen to a ton of more names at the beginning. Thank your Patreon’s on the Patreon special. It’s annoying, you’re annoying but mostly you two are just pathetic. Try something else, don’t waste your time with these two goofs.Still not good at podcasting. You’re at the low end towards Stuttering John level.

    It’s not the ads
    The issue with the sound isn’t that the ads are too loud, it’s that the content isn’t loud enough. Love the show, but I can barely hear it over the road noise in my car (noisy car, bumpy rural roads). Tested an episode against several other podcasts and found many of them to be much louder.
  • BobFrogLeg
    Like the podcast dislike the cover
    Like listening them to them on my way to work. Enjoy their voices and sense of humor but please do something about that cover art!
  • Jersey Girl in Vermont
    Fabulous
    Lake Baikal episode was fantastic. Sorry I didn’t give you a 5 star review sooner.
  • janfromlasvegas

    You guys should research this . I love your podcast!
  • Jameses the Great
    Sound leveling needed
    This is the only thing I can think of wrong with the show is that the commercials are 15 times louder than the podcast. Other than that, it’s sound!! Pun intended.
  • LGray
    Great time saver
    Just discovered and so glad I did. Crackpot keeps me from wasting time on the internet trying to satisfy my curiosity about conspiracies, strange happenings, places and people. Hosts are authentic and have a great sense of humor.

    Challenge
    you need to look up the amazing Randy paranormal challenge for $1 million. No one ever got the money for over 50 years. Wonder why?
  • PM JB 2024
    Seriously the best
    Just recently found and have spent all time listening to past episodes. Seriously the best podcast I’ve found
  • OmarC13
    Meh
    Background noise
  • showmewhatugot
    ADDS TOO LOUD
    Fix your add volume it’s so fn annoying
  • StaceyKB
    One of my favs
    I love conspiracy theories, but I generally don’t believe them. I love this podcast because they explain the theory, but also approach it in a rational, thoughtful way. Great job guys!
  • dduknsksnsjJajsb
    We’re not politically biased BUT we really are!!!!
    First of all having a show like this in a election year is politically motivated. All the little under tones and summery comments ARE POLITICALLY BIASED. BOTH SIDES ARE CORRUPT AND YOU ARE PART OT THEIR TOOL BOX! Seriously shame on you! Unsubscribing

    Disappointed
    Not a political person at all and no fan of either political party. I come to this fun podcast to get away from issues such as politics. The last two episodes have been a disappointment one covering fringe group of a political party and the other interviewing a guy that was not a conspiracy theorist or anything for that matter…I actually don’t understand why that interview even happened? Maybe all the good conspiracies and entertaining topics have been discussed? In any case guys, I have loved listening to you and laughed out loud at times. Maybe ask the audience if they have any new topics for you and can assist with research. The last two have been a bit off putting and odd. I just felt like I was listening to Glen Beck conspiracy podcast the other day, he just tried to instal fear and anxiety. Your discussion was similar, granted in the opposite side. Frankly that political group just laid out there plans and dreams… it really a conspiracy. They may be weird but so is the BLM crowd. If I wanted to hear that type of discussion there are endless other podcasts. It just sounded like a political discussion and not a great one at that. Bring back Bigfoot!

    Now a political show?
    I’m an independent and not a trump voter however the political bias has grown out of control. I’m out and no longer a Patreon. The hosts don’t understand the basic principles of our government and separation of powers. They don’t bother to investigate what they don’t understand. If you want to listen to a progressive echo chamber then this podcast is for you. If you are interested in entertainment look elsewhere. Sad to see their personal politics destroy a decent podcast.
  • Urlocalreveiwer
    AMAZING
    I really like this show but I would like if you brought like conspiracy theroy experts in
  • aurovin
    Great podcast!
    Love the podcast guys!
  • josh podcast
    Always a fun listen
    Great duo tackling interesting topics and providing humor along the way. Looking forward to the new season !
  • Raindog34
    Great show
    Refreshing and logical look at the world of the unknown.
  • Cycling dude 1987
    Good show
    Wanted to say good show! You two are cool. I’m pretty new to the podcast. I have a couple of potential recommendations about shows. Have you guys ever done an episode about conspiracy theories surrounding Disney or about the 27 club? Have you guys ever thought about bringing in experts/ masters of the conspiracy theory that you are talking about?
  • Wyrmdragn
    Amazing Duo!
    What an amazing podcast! Been listening for several years, their humor and enthusiasm, mixed with the depth of research, brings every dynamic topic to life! Please give them a listen, you’ll be hooked!
  • judy moonlight / loneWOLF 5757
    Money Money Money
    They put more adds in there stupid preview than most other podcast put in there whole episode. And on top of that they want you to pay to listen to the rest. Hahahaha
  • Rabble Rousing RZA
    Let’s be honest
    Okay, at first I thought it was my own weird suspicion. Now I see what’s going on. The only “good” episodes are Patreon episodes, whereas the free ones are barely worth our time. Just compare the two and judge for yourself. Let me replace my tinfoil hat now please.
  • GNXgypsy
    Worse $ grab than daiblo
    Not interested in premium episodes whatsoever. These guys are not worth money. Of all the podcasts I listen too, I’ll spend that money elsewhere. So seeing their feed constantly like a money grab, no thank you. Good luck. Yet they continually try to create a pay wall. Shameless. Make something worth paying for is a thought. Losers like this give podcast a bad name. You want me to pay to hear you? Are you serious? What is your major malfunction? Making a crappy podcast and trying to capitalize? Yeah, that’s just wrong. When there are soooooo many other podcasts of a much higher caliber that are free add supported. These losers can dream all they want. I feel bad for the 12 patrons that were actually parted with their hard earned money to hear these saps.
  • GoddessKate
    My favorite!
    Crackpot has become my favorite podcast to start the day, always learning something new!

    Great show! Episodes are well written and informative. I like how the hosts stay focused on the topic at hand and do not waste time going on tangents.
  • Nate092381
    Two-part episodes are half behind a paywall
    They put out two-part episodes where the first one is free, but the second one you have to be subscribed to their Patreon to listen to the full episode. I like the podcast, but that’s just a terrible practice.
  • AmandaPanda721
    My favorite conspiracy theory podcast
    I’m not a crazy, foil hat wearing conspiracist, but I will admit that I love a good conspiracy theory. These guys are exactly what I have been looking for. They are educated, articulate and they do their research. I have shared this podcast with my friends and I will continue to do so. Love these guys!
  • 420seank
    Good when available
    Making a 2 part episode, the first free to listen but with the second behind a paywall, is a lame move you guys.
  • George Pooney
    Great show
    I have a fever, and the only prescription is a 3 part Bigfoot series. Love the show, guys!
  • Flashy benefit
    My favorite podcast hands down
    Love this show. The guys are great. Colorful, Factual, funny and adventurous. I literally can’t listen to other podcasts cause these guys have set the bar so high!

  • Devin_Holland_allday
    New favorite podcast
    I’m a trucker, so I listen to podcasts during my daily 11 hour drive. Found Crackpot last week and listening to every episode all day ever since! Keep it up guys, I love how y’all hit the different possible angles with each topic. Waiting for new episodes!
  • Aqua Fan1!
    My Favorite Podcast Currently!!
    I listen to quite a few podcasts and this is my current fav. I even put up the cash for the Patreon membership!
  • AudraMarieG
    One of my favorites
    Always interesting, well researched and the hosts have a good dynamic. Smart guys talk about all the wild conspiracies out there.
  • Kakabates
    Definitely Crooked Rain Crooked Rain
    When you kind of like a podcast and dive into their backlog only to eventually hear the hosts enjoy all of your favorite bands.
  • Bartholomew Tenenbaum the III
    It’s my favorite podcast
    I know Tim, and he’s a great guy. Him and dad went to college together, and no, this review isn’t good because I know him. The podcast is funny, takes on theories that have been around for a long time, and very fun to listen to in general.
  • Suz757575
    Love you guys
    Funny, informative, entertaining. In my top 3 podcasts (I listen to A LOT). Keep up the amazing work!
