When they first started, I was hesitant for another podcast of white dudes talking to each other but as I gave it a few listens I grew to enjoy it. They are funny people. But in the years since, I’ve just gotten so tired of Jason and Will’s CONSTANT ragging on Sean. Like, we get it. Move on and stop picking on the sweetest person in the room just because it’s easy. On top of that, the incessant talking over each other and the guest has become so unbearable. They haven’t done anything to enhance or grow or change the show over the years and instead have just continued to lean on their same dumb tropes and I’ve just gotten so tired of it. Plus, Shane Gillis? Really? Are they trying to appeal to the manosphere bc they’re losing listeners? No thanks. I was once a proud subscriber that told everyone about the show, but not anymore.

F that dude.

I’m a huge fan of Jason , loved Arrested Development and Will. The thing I don’t like is the insider references. For example In the Poehler episode they were reminiscing about early days and saying “remember Dratch and someone “. They also become over the top fanboys. Everyone is great, awesome the best. I like it but don’t love it.

This podcast is the best podcast I have ever listened to and I’ve listen to a lot. Listening to Jason, Will, and Sean and their guests such a highlight of my day and when listening to them it’s like I’m sitting there with them in a room and just laughing away and can’t breath. I can’t get enough of these three and their jabs and cutting remarks to each other…it seriously is the best and I am so glad that this exists in our crazy world. Laughing along with Sean is like laughing with an old friend and I’m so glad I have this podcast in my life. Nothing on television, on the big screen, or on any podcast platform is better than Smartless. Thank you Jason, Will, and Sean so very much, you truly don’t understand how much you three mean to us die hard fans.

Occasionally they have guests I could care less about. But thankful they align with me morally and will continue to love these guys because of it. Their interviewing skills aren’t great, and seeing the same guests appear between this and FotW shows they are just cycling thru the same list of celebs. Will and JB are my favorite however, not on this show they aren’t. 😵‍💫

Listening to my second podcast i thought, oh thats lego batman cool! After several more episodes i realized oh s it! That Effin Bojack! omgomgomgomgomg. Also, Lego Batman was the best batman! Thank you story tellers for the podcast. Just realized Jason was in Teen wolf, Holy effin sh t.

The hit rate of actually letting a guest answer a question has got to be less than 25%. Sometimes that’s funny, sometimes it’s hella annoying. It’s gotten way worse in the last 1-2 years.

I used to like them, but I don’t find them much funny anymore. I think constantly bullying Sean is getting really old.

…I enjoy this pod a lot. But let’s get far, far away from the political guests unless you want to drive people away. It’s entirely up to you.

I have been a loyal listener to Smartless. One thing is really buggin me. Will stutters all the time and takes forever to ask gust a question.Can we get him a speech pathologist?

why have guests when you CONSTANTLY talk about yourselves…

Stop listening to this podcast, because they pick on Sean so much.

I love this show so much. It’s a welcome break from the serious or more formally structured pods… and also regularly makes me laugh out loud. My favorite shows are when they get other improv comedians on … Amy P and Paul Rudd are two favs.

I have followed this show for awhile and used to enjoy it. At some point the guests became aligned with movies or tv shows which took some of the fun away of the surprise guest. Felt more like a press junket check off than a fun surprise. Anyways, I’ve found it more and more difficult to listen. The constant interrupting of guests and then posing questions to each other instead of to the guest is just annoying at this point. The inappropriately timed inside jokes that make guests uncomfortably laugh. Jason asks the most long winded questions that could be said simply in under 10 words. Sean is constantly cut off. Will and his self important persona is so cringe. Not for me anymore…

I think the show would be better if they didn’t pick on Sean so much and they let the guest speak! Sometimes I just turn it off because they like to hear themselves speak.

Did Jason just call Pete Buttigieg -“Mayor Pete”?!?! It’s pronounced SECRETARY Buttigieg there, Michael Bluth!

This podcast is now just a string of commercials interrupted by three dudes ragging on each other

Long time listener and will be a continued listener because you all are hilarious. I do however wish you had guests with differing ideological political affiliations. It’s probably pretty easy to talk with politicians you fully support…would love to hear you converse with someone with different world views. You might enjoy it!

The last thing I want in my humor is politics. When Bateman went off the deep end and they started putting on politicians it ruined it for me. The last people I expect to have a legitimate political conversation with is a bunch of Hollywood yahoo’s. Sorry Will. You’re one of the funniest people out there.

Enjoy it with the exception of Will dropping the f bomb every other word

Jason, Will, Sean: thank you! I love your personal banter and conversations with guests! They reveal a personal side not heard in canned interviews. I love the inside backstories, it’s like listening to friends stories. So much new content never heard. I like industry details and these three have unique industry experiences and even offer advice to listeners. They’re very real, flaws and accomplishments. Thank you for sharing your friendship too. Men can learn how to be a friend from them too. Much continued success! You’re doing it right!

Jesus,Jeff. Been to Peru lately? *sniff

Im not a podcaster - but got wind of this recently and have been BINGEING! Started at most recent then after a few decided to go from the start. Let me just say the Neil Degasse Tyson episode was to DIE for! Gah! I hope he comes back. Love this podcast

magic to my ears fellas 😘😘😘

Started off so strong. But as they got more popular it got too “talk showy”. They pander to the guests, seem overly obsequious, especially Will. But the biggest issue for me is how mean Will is to Sean. At first it was funny banter, now it seems like bullying. Now I only listen when I am a fan of the guest.

My new favorite—maybe my all time favorite bit is Will’s Italian guy cheering in the background. Hysterical 😂

Hey Jason, um, I just wanted to tell you that watching you i-i-in Ozark has really helped me to learn to be more stoic in my relationships and life, in general. Also, I just think you’re a real respectable guy; keep it up, Bud. And Will, you’re such a cool and emotionally aware guy; I look up to you as well. Sean… well, anyways (jk, you melt my heart❤️). Cheers, guys, I appreciate your work and, more importantly, your beings. 🫡🫂🤍

I love the clever banter and subtle jabs with these guys. Just smart fun. It’s also cool that Sean Hayes knows a Chicago Cop (also named Sean Hayes) that he met at Elbo Room while playing Ms Pac-Man!

When Sean has a guest, please let him ask his questions.

We need to have a do over with Paul….

I listened when pod started and appreciated the humor. I listen now when I like the guest like the repost of John Mulaney or Adam Scott. A few common threads- you always talk over the guest to get your joke in, you never have done any research in a guest to speak intelligently to them, AND you are cruelly mean to Sean. Sean plz quit and go do things with people who love you! And I’m tossing it back to the guests. Why would you waste your time going this podcast. Don’t lower your standards. That’s all. Removing from my feed!

I love Sean and Jason but when Will starts bullying Sean I just want to turn it off. So unnecessary and not funny.

I cannot tell you how annoying the Italian bit is. I stopped listening purely because of it.

Makes Mondays enjoyable

Love you guys a lot. As a trans man, a little disappointed about the Harry Potter enthusiasm for John Lithgow in light of JK Rowling’s vile comments regarding the trans community.

I love these guys. I mean, imagine my surprise when they started talking about me. To hear some of the hottest celebs in the biz say my name?!?! Very flattering. Yeah, yeah. Sean has a sister. Her name probably isn’t even Tracy.

I have been waiting for her to come on! All of you were exactly what we alllllll needed!!! I would love Amy and Tina… omg!

These guys hit all the feels. Love the authenticity.

Will is still in love with Amy, as he should be, she's amazing. They're all great but Will is so sharp and quick witted, it is obvious from his comments over the years, he can't hide it. Glad he is progressing in therapy, they are both in good relationships now, and are doing well as coparents. But it still makes me sad. Which is ironic because I laugh so much with this podcast! My favorite!

Will, do you have to lick all the doughnuts? My guess is Sean might like to have some friends he doesn’t share with you playground bullies. For all her “self knowledge” Shriver isn’t any more understanding of Sean in this arena than you obtuse men are. Geez.

I literally haven’t stopped listening to every episode since I started over a year ago. (And went all the way back to the beginning). I love them all so much. Their docuseries was incredible too and I literally can’t get enough. When I heard the song on Amy Poehlers episode I literally gasped, laughed, and JAMMED out. I then rewound that section of this episode- ohhhhh about 50 times all day. —Please release that as a single so I can listen to it all the time. Love you all. If you ever want to interview a normal person too let me know! (I don’t know why you would but hey- you guys are crazy so why not) —

I'll admit I enjoyed it in the beginning, but OMG I'm so tired of these guys just talking about how rich they all are constantly...read the room guys. Everyone is struggling, and you guys go on and on about ur vacations, commercials, houses, parties....yikes. I love Amy but I can't get past the 'funny commentary' you guys have in the beginning. Gross

OMG she is so great! Love her new podcast too!

These guys strike a chord with my Gen X humor. Good palate cleanser from the crime shows.

Been waiting for this episode since day one!!!! Love her so much! You guys are pretty alright too i guess 😂. Love this show!

Great programming, this is not a snooty note. You guys, please pronounce Realtor Real-tor no Real-a-tor. xo

Not only are these men phenomenal proffessionally, as people they seem so genuine. I love how they lift people up. Love the laughs. Love how I feel right there with them laughing on the other side of the web. Alright now don’t get cocky!

A perfect episode gentlemen

Fav podcast ever! Good Hang with Amy Poehler feels similar. Just a cozy, friendly vibe :)

And Justine is as equally amazing as her brother, Jason. That was a reply to a review that said otherwise
