    Rumor has it podco is trashed- so now all of their podcasts including this one. 0 transparency from podco, Jen, or David on the direction of the podcast.

    A super fun podcast… however!
    Why are ads dropped in in the middle of a conversation. In the middle of a sentence! It sounds like when they play, the show keeps on going so we miss stuff!! I don’t mind ads… but schedule them? Take a scheduled ad break?
  • Lizzy😇

    Too Many Ads
    The show is fun. But every episode has more and longer ads than the previous. Unnecessary and annoying.

    Nostalgia for days!
    Wizards was my childhood. When I found out about this podcast, I was SO excited. David and Jennifer go through the episodes, talking about their experience filming, answering exclusive questions, all while keeping the conversation humorous and fun! Seriously so nostalgic for me and I love it so much.
  • Grace Koch
    Funny, informative, & personal!

    Wanted to love…
    Was super excited for this podcast but after listening a quite a while, I just can’t stand how off topic they are. They just talk about random stuff and repeat the same personal stories over and over. They hardly even talk about the episodes. Poor production quality and annoying how Jennifer can’t ever let David finish what he’s saying.
  • gyyswaaxbbkoo
    Love these two!
    David and Jennifer are endlessly entertaining and hilarious! And just as importantly, they both have great taste in music.

    Literally My Whole Childhood ❤️
    I’m an only child who was born in 1999 and you guys literally made up my whole childhood. Anytime someone asks me my top 5 Disney shows I always say That’s so Raven, Wizards of Waverly Place, Hanna Montana, The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and Phil of the Future. This show got me started on podcasts and it’s the first thing I listen to when I get to work. David is such an honest, funny and caring person and has always been my favorite TV dad. Jennifer is such a relatable person and I hope she never changes. Love you guys!

    It is ok
  • joannanewbold
    I’m actually learning from this podcast
    First off, LOVE LOVE LOVE Jen & David as a duo!! Watching the show, you wouldn’t put them together but they have such good platonic chemistry and are so interesting to listen to. I love hearing about their shared life experiences and hearing their life after Wizards and how they still are fulfilling their dreams. As a kid, Wizards was my favorite show, so hearing the behind the scenes info is so cool!! Also, as someone who has a background in theatre and dreams of being a professional, I have learned SO much about the whole process! From auditioning to booking to performing, they talk about every step and it is so so cool to hear their perspective on the industry! If I could give this a million stars I would. Jen and DDD I love you. 💗

    What I got …
    I’m a long time listener, and it just dawned on me that I’ve never written a review 😐 I’ma be honest, all this podcast has given me is pure nostalgia, hilarious inside commentaries, and the realization I have an obsession with David DeLuise 😹😹 Jen and David do a WONDERFUL job of bringing an old favorite show back to life, and I seriously love that they’re going back through each episode. It’s a lot of fun listening to the friendly, comedic banter while getting to relive the fun that is Wizards ❤️ Keep up the good work, y’all! And keep the jokes comin’ 😜 Please never get rid of “mmmm Disneyyy …” 🐭

    Big Fan
    I was a big fan growing up and to this day I kept rewatching the series on Disney+. I was so nostalgic, especially because like they mention, this felt like the first real ever “family” show that showed the real dynamic of an everyday family. Adding that I’m also of Latin descent, they incorporate all aspects of their Italian, Mexican, and American cultures so naturally. They people behind the show knew what they were doing and the people putting the show to life excelled. I appreciate that they talk about it to this day, I am now a 24 year old and I’m so psyched to see that they’re also making a sequel and they’re making these podcasts. It makes my heart happy to see that the same people who made this series appreciate it as much as the fans did and do. I can’t wait to see what is to come for Wizards!!!
  • Small feedback
    One at a time
    I start with I love love love the show. I even love when they discuss the rewatch or any other topic . I love hearing their perspectives and jokes and banter. But GOODNESS PLEASE let one another speak. One at a time . Mostly Jennifer interrupts David but it does go both ways. I want to be able to hear their thoughts but they can’t finish them. The episode with Kate flannery was probably the most chaotic with everyone talking at once. No one could get a full thought or sentence out without the hosts hopping in and interrupting . When the medium is audio there has to be a back and forth in the conversation. Not regularly screaming over one another. P.s. I think this comes from a cultural stand point too. My perspective of Interrupting is it is extremely rude and disrespectful no matter the setting, because you are taking someone’s voice and space from the conversation . Apologies if my biases are affecting this review. But it is my observation and opinion .

    good podcast
    I was a big Disney fan
  • BreeGG
    It’s an Easy Listen
    I love to listen to this show in between my True Crime podcast binge. It throws be back to my favorite childhood Tv show but through an adult perspective. Jen and David have the cutest chemistry. They do have a tendency to talk over one another or guests, or to get off topic. So if you’re one of those listeners that cant handle that, you might not enjoy this. Overall this is a feel good and easy listen.
  • I ❤️Disney!!!!
    Wizards fan
    Great show love the hosts and love hearing them asking the crystal ball questions and making jokes and David’s “Mm Disney” and intro too
  • Dancer🩷
    Need more episodes
    Interesting so we need more episodes!🤩🥳😀😃🙂🙃
  • msldcpck
    Turns out I like Harper but not Jennifer
    I liked Harpers character in the show but on the pod Jennifer just complains a lot about her experience working for Disney and yet she is making a podcast off of the experience…I have very mixed feelings. The show ended over a decade ago please move on.

    Long Time Fan 🧙🏻🪄
    Hello my name is Caitlin. THIS show was apart of my childhood I was seven when I started watching. Wizards taught me to learn from my mistakes and deal with tough situations, I was born with an intellectual disability and had a hard time understanding how the world works growing up. I’m 23 now and thriving with life. can’t wait to hear the behind the scenes and more.
  • madisonhoneycutt
    Amazing !!
    This is a really great podcast I love listening to there stories and all the bts tea but it’s defiantly worth a listen 👍🏼 great jobs guys
  • Mommaven
    I wanted to love it
    I’m a huge Wizards of Waverly Place fan and a fan of rewatch podcasts of my favorite shows. Unfortunately, this one is chaotic and doesn’t stay on topic of the episode they are supposedly recapping. The episodes where they are interviewing guests are a bit better than than the recaps. They seem unprepared. The production quality is mediocre as well. Then there is the language. This podcast isn’t safe for little ears, nor mine for that matter. I wanted to love it but, after many episodes I had to give it up because it’s just a waste of time.
  • MekenzieA
    LOVE LOVE LOVE
    I love this podcast! It brings back so many good memories of watching the show growing up and as a recent theatre grad it’s nice to know what went on behind the scenes. I love how y’all go back and forth from the show to real life situations it shows you guys are having fun!
  • Egg:)2022

    My favorite Disney Channel show!
    I love that Jennifer and David are doing a podcast about my favorite show! I was so excited when I saw the trailer for it!!! I can’t wait for more episodes!!! I have watched this whole series over and over again since the day it aired on Disney channel! I practically have every episode memorized haha!
  • Ferguson Avery
    Love the show!
    I love the pod and all the stories they tell. I also love David’s behind the scene facts and tell us how everything works! Keep telling us more facts😊
  • marieee156
    Please stop cussing so much
    I loveeeeeeee your podcast but it’s difficult to follow when y’all cuss a whole load ! with all respect & love!
  • Tic Tac Toad
    difficult to follow
    i really love the energy and premise of this podcast, but it’s pretty difficult to tell where they’re going in the conversation. the podcast ends without me hearing that much about the show they’re supposed to be recapping. i love side tangents & conversations, but they need some more structure.
  • wastedtimesavingmoney
    Thank you for being genuine!
    This pod brings me so much joy, & I was hoping too see in these reviews that it’s doing the same for other people! While the love is definitely there, the amount of complaints about “not a rewatch” & “too much over sharing” blows my mind. I love the dynamic of being able to see Jen & David’s perspective and learning all the behind the scenes tea. I also love hearing their stories unrelated to wizards. I feel like a lot of people wanted a play-by-play breakdown of the episodes, but what this pod gives is so much better. If you want just a rewatch, go rewatch it 🤷🏻‍♀️ 10/10 recommend ❤️
  • ktmdancer
    Can Office Ladies Pod structure just be standard please
    I love wizards so obviously I listen to the pod but it is pretty hard when half of it is just listening to random name-dropping conversations about nothing. I’d be okay with that if it was occasional. I am hoping that by season 2 they will have figured out a structure that works. They recently started giving a summary at the top of the episode and that was a step in the right direction. Also, the episodes with guests were better than just the two of them. I have the same issues with similar rewatch podcasts. They said they can’t use clips of the show for copyright reasons but works of commentary and review are fair use in the US so… I’ll keep listening for now and be hopeful for future better episodes.
  • KaileyGT
    My fav show back then to now as an adult in her 20s!
    I loved ‘Wizards of Waverly Place’ when I was a kid. As I am an adult now I see myself watching the show on Disney + now and listening to you guys talk about the behind the scenes of everything it’s funny watching it now as an adult! I love the whole cast and thankful for shows like y’all’s that were in my life!!! ❤️
  • Okley Meri
    My childhood
    I love wizards of Waverly place so much I was so happy when this podcast came out, Thank you
  • Mads0313
    bringing my childhood back around ◡̈
    i grew up watching wizards and when disney plus came out, the first show i watched was wizards and i’ve watched it many times since then and it will never get old!!! i love everything about this podcast and the hosts!!!
  • Sn.ckerz
    Lack of structure is frustrating
    I think they’re both great hosts and bring you in with their friendliness. But it’s incredibly weird to claim you’re going to talk about an episode and instead focus on episodes in the future or random stories in the business that do not at ALL apply to the current episode. Even if they at least focused on the season it would be helpful. The point of this being a “rewatch “ podcast is to listen to elements the audience never knew about the episode. I think it loses build up to future episodes because one we maybe especially want to learn about- well now we know we aren’t really going to know anything about the episode unless there are hints dropped somewhere else. Love Jen and David. But please don’t call this a rewatch podcast if you aren’t actually addressing the episode. This is a podcast of two friends talking about the project they loved in random spurts (which is fine and enjoyable)
  • TheCarsonRodke
    Filler Episodes
    For a rewatch podcast… there isn’t a lot of rewatch happening so far. Though I enjoy the behind the scenes commentary to one of my favorite childhood shows, I wish Jennifer and David progressed through the rewatch faster. We’ve had something like 10 or so episodes of the podcast and only made it though 6 episodes of the show as of this review. I don’t mind Q&A filler episodes, but at this rate it’ll take years to get through the whole series.
  • MaeMaecy
    Needs some work..
    I enjoy maybe some parts of this podcast. It gives so much nostalgia but that’s all it does. There’s way too much interruptions between the two. It makes it quite unenjoyable. There’s no point in having guests if they won’t even let them get a sentence out without interrupting them. If the interrupting were to stop the show would be amazing to listen to. Hope they fix that.
  • DelaneyG <3
    HAPPY FEELS
    I love how genuine this is! So cool! So sweet!
  • BamBam_Lucio
    One word: AMAZING!
    Reminds me so much of my childhood, this was one of my favorite shows and it’s so good to hear the behind the scenes and details about a show that made me who I am.
  • Adeee (:
    Please bring a third person permanently
    Grew up watching wizards and was super excited for this to come out especially since I had just started listening to Pod Meets World where they have such a great blend of personal stories and staying on topic. I see a lot of people complaining about the hosts talking over each other which is something I imagine just two people with ADHD (which they both mention having) being in the same room nothing rude about it. HOWEVER it’s driving me insane that they talk about the episode for maybe 5 minutes and then it’s the business, personal lives, memories that don’t have to do with the show. Please just bring in a third person to get them on track. I want to hear about the show. Don’t get me wrong hearing personal stories is great in moderation but seriously out of a 45-50 minute podcast about WOWP only 5 minutes is genuinely spent talking about it.

    This brings back memories.😭😭 Soo thankful for this podcast ! ^

    Nostalgia Central
    I grew up watching Wizards and I absolutely love this podcast idea and reliving the childhood nostalgia! I do, however, feel it’s difficult to follow at times with how much they talk over each other and I wish the ads were edited in better. I’m hoping as they find their groove and the podcast gains traction, these things improve! I will definitely keep listening :)
