Love it

Great chemistry between hosts, and good video game discussion. Always puts a smile on my face - it's like sitting in a cozy room with a group of goofy nerdy friends.

Great show!

A great show and some obviously great chemistry between the hosts! Definitely worth a listen if you are into any games or Kirby/persona...

Not just Allegra and her friend!

One of my favourite podcasts! Not gonna lie, but I thought it was Allegra and max two other people.
You have lovely voices! But wow they do sound similar.
If you read this, I do apologise. I love all, all ummmm err, all several of you.

Funny and sweet

And full of joy!! And great to catch up on latest gaming news in an enjoyable way and catch up on that Coke Zero drama too.

Four witty women talk about games

For a games website to have their flagship podcast hosted by four women is wonderful enough, but it's even more fantastic that they feel no need to make a big deal of it. Why should they? This is just four witty people who love games having a chat about what's going on in gaming between tangents about important issues such as the Coke Zero recipe change and the awkwardness of sharing a room on business trips.
I rapidly came to look forward to vicariously hanging out with these ladies as this became one of my favourite podcasts. I'd recommend the show to anyone, whether they play games or not.

Just hilarious

Really fun, well-informed chat show with a great gang of hosts, who you can tell really love what they do. A weekly Friday treat!

Meh

Worth a listen if you enjoy Polygon content, personally I didn't enjoy the personalities of the girls as much as I enjoy those on podcasts from other outlets like IGN but 'The Polygon Show' is an important show in terms of diversity and may still be finding it's groove.

So, so good

Please listen to this podcast. I can't do it justice with my mere human words. It's wonderful and you should listen to it!

Brilliant!

The Polygon Show is one of the highlights of my podcast week! The hosts are fun, funny, and have a great rapport with each other. My favourite gaming podcast by a loooong margin.

Very good

Very funny women talk about the games as well as things aren't the games. The episode titles alone are better than most other podcasts.

A feelgood gaming show

So many hysterical tangents. This show cracks me up every week

Disappointing

It's nice to see a mostly female led podcast. It's just a shame they spend so much time talking about inane rubbish instead of actually talking about video games. If you're interested in commentary regarding the latest Overwatch skin, by all means give it a go

A good show that I enjoy in my ears

An energetic, fun, gaming-adjacent nattercast.

Great balance between fun silliness and genuine videogame discussion

I'm really enjoying this podcast. Nice balance between fun silliness and genuine videogame discussion, and the four hosts seem to have great chemistry.

a good good show

Really enjoying this good pod! Fast becoming a regular Friday listen for the fun times. Best enjoyed with a fresh bottle of sparkling water imo.

The Overwatch Mime Show

Found out about the show in an obscure way (saw it on GameOverGreggy Instagram feed) and so far I'm really enjoying it, a gaming podcast that gives you laugh out moments and strange looks from the people on the train. Looking forward to the next show and laughing with no shame!

Instantly added to my weekly subscriptions!

A strong start to what will surely be a regular listen for me. Hilarious gaming commentary between colleagues and friends of polygon.

Great start!!

I heard the Polygon quality control E3 episode and was tempted to try the Polygon show and damn it's fun!!!

Human voices speaking, about games.

A real podcast by a collective of real journalists, The Polygon Show is simultaneously an investigation into games journalism and an investigation into the human psyche.
Want to hear someone talking about how they haven't played Undertale yet? Well, I guess that's a three second dialogue exchange in one of the episodes. Want to hear the most thrilling animosity ever made up between podcasters and their sound guy? That's also a thing that happens, probably. They talk about video games too. I went into a secondhand media store to buy DVDs, but I was listening to The Polygon Show at the time and left the store with a really cool pearl pink GBA instead. This is their fault. This is their fault. I may never feed my family again. This is their fault.
Five stars.

Just "Press Start"

This podcast is fresher than the beverages they are fascinated with reviewing. 5/5 good and nutritious content.

Wonderful soft girls talking about vidya gamz

Simone’s laugh is worth 5 stars in and of itself. Then you have the 45+ minutes of hilarious games chat on top. Plus the Thrustmaster himself is the producer!

They had me at "Does DNA Man F***"

A good solid podcast from some favourite polygals from polygon.
Cons: Didn't once discuss how many polygons were in the video games they talked about nor which polygons were their favourites despite the name of the show.
Pros: Provided the mental image of Nick Robinson and Helix dressed as Beauty and the Beast.

Great fun fun for everyone (except those who like sparkling water)

A new good soft gaming podcast, with the best girls shaming people for beverage choices and their love of helix from arms. I look forward to hearing more.
