tdownbDisgusting amount of commercials.Love the show. The amount of advertisements make it’s almost unbearable to listen to. Absolutely horrible.
-
Anthropomorphic homonidGreat podcast!This podcast is so good that i’ve listened to every episode at least twice. And until next time, be safe, be kind, and know that you are appreciated.
-
roddygerardfreyEXCELLENT!a wild ride into every sort of conspiracy imagined, with deft strokes of humor and truth and hecklefish is just plaim awesome, the perfect sidekick! FEAR THE CRAB-CAT!
-
Arias0101Too many ads.As many ads as an hour long episode but half the duration.
-
XcacelBig CommercialToo many commercials. Annoying. Cant stay.
-
Tracy MikHope you can tolerate commercials.Great content. Full commercial blocks every 2-3 minutes. Isn’t this the reason many of us started to listen to podcasts?
-
Jbct112HecklefishTotally removing hecklefish from the podcast, in my opinion is a bad move. I understand trying something new, however a little well timed heckelfish goes a long way than none at all going the opposite way. Stay true to the show and don’t remove him completely.
-
Durst98Meh.Narrator speaks too fast, too excited sounding for the content, and the constant cartoonish voice (which I’ve learned is something called the Hecklefish) is annoying and distracting.
-
JoJo’s Daddy78Big FanI’ve been a fan of your YouTube show for a while & was very excited to find out about the podcast. You have a knack for storytelling & even hearing you talk about subjects I’m already familiar with tend to be fascinating. Keep it coming!!!!

Rkelly248Want to listen, butHeard about The Why Files on Joe Rogan and enjoyed what he had to say. This podcast has no flow, way too many commercials. Notice Rogan doesn’t have advertisement every two minutes. Your 30 minutes episode really only has around 10 minutes of content.
-
Lego tank enthusiastGreat podcastWhy you all hating on hecklefish he’s fine and ads a bit of comedy great podcast tho
-
the n1ghthawkHard to consumeI find many people heckle the hecklefish. After listening to most episodes I found his comic relief a charming part of the show. I’m glad you’re making money but the constant ad breaks have killed my enjoyment of the show. I consumed hours of compilations without as many breaks as these 20 minute episodes. Hard for me to consume or to continue to recommend.

Sweet Tea in TennesseeMore ads than contentThis podcast has an asinine amount of ads. You get very little show compared to the ads. There are way way more ads than show. The little content on the shows are great but I’m moving on. I can’t stand the obscene amount of commercials anymore.
-
JillianharAwesome!As others have said Thx for rehoming Heckle Fish. Hope he's doing well but I was so over him 😉
-
MacToirneachAbout Hecklefish…I think he’s funny, but the comic relief is best only on the video. Most of the humor from that, relies on the character being seen, and that just doesn’t fit on audio only.
-
Snas-SquatchOut of this worldAmazing
-
GrimShady405Touch grassI love it. I don’t know why so many people are complaining. He’s called (Heckle)fish, for Christ’s sake! Ya know?! Like hecklers at comedy shows?!? Grow up, go outside, touch grass.
-
Joe looseAds Ads AdsWay too many ads! Made me stop listening.
-
LuckyBlueGamerConspiracy Show MasterworkAJ Gentile is a genius. The shorter single-topic episodes are detailed and compelling. The longer compilation episodes are packed with content and are absolute gold. The writing is consistently first-rate. Fantastic show that consistently earns its audience. Check out AJ’s guest spot on Joe Rogan, who also loves this show. And please bring back Hecklefish (my spirit animal)!!
-
Listener87654Fish stays!Please bring back the Fish! It’s not that fun without him… Love your podcast, great research, and great presentation. Thank you!
-
cole1592Would give 5 but the annoying voice that keeps interrupting is so annoyingPlease, I’m begging to stop using that annoying voice that keeps interrupting the story. The stories are so good and I know you think it’s funny, but it takes a lot away from the podcast. It’s the most annoying addition and immediately stops my interest in the story.

joogalayStripped1 star strike until hecklefish returns
-
Tap a star to rate:)What’s with the HecklefishGreat information but impossible to listen with the constant interruptions from the Hecklefish. I don’t know why the author has decided to add this element. The Hecklefish provides zero additional information and disrupts the continuity. I am surprised this podcast has made it this long without changing this annoying feature.
-
RA18888Too many ads.The show is almost not even able to be listened to with jarring ad interruptions every 4-5 minutes.
-
intergalactictoadStrippedI like this podcast, but I really like this stripped version without that annoying fish.
-
TBrettzky13Had to stop listening due to adsToo many ads on such a short podcast
-
Helio974074I like, but…Update: Thank you for removing hecklefish from the podcasts! Much better. ☺️ - - - - - - - - - Keep heckle fish out of the podcasts. Then it will be perfect. Use him only in the YouTube videos.
-
SebasDiaz308Best PodcastWatch all the videos, and i work 12 hr shifts and he gets me through them so blessed to have this guy
-
OC_ReviewerHecklefish1 star until Hecklefish returns. Without him your just another paranormal podcast.
-
ToneloafLove the YouTube channel, BUTThe amount of ad breaks makes this just about unlistenable.
-
Heartbroken Space NinjaIncredible podcastAlways such a great listen. I’ve watched every episode on YT so I’m excited to listen to the rest of the podcast episodes. Please don’t ever stop creating content and putting the truth out there 💕
-
showmewhatugot🛑FIX YOUR AD VOLUMEADD VOLUME IS TOO LOUD ON PURPOSE!
-
RzrFistThe best🤩I love this channel but I wish they edited out the bits were ads, videos or images play although I still rate it five ✨ Question: what does stripped mean In front of the podcasts?
-
NaptowndjMore heckle fishPlease bring back heckle fish
-
Nolan deetserzLet stem to dis all nightThis is weewee good the puppet is funny but he says stuff that’s really annoying and so many adds
-
Ya aint got no learninGreat!My favorite podcast, but where is the fish!?
-
ChristinaMustangMy favorite podcastI really enjoy this podcast, as I’ve always been drawn to conspiracies, cryptids, the paranormal, etc. I think the banter between AJ and Hecklefish is funny. My only complaint is that I want more.
-
McMorrdogGreat story TellingI have been listening to The Why Files podcast for 6 months give or take and love the story telling style. Plus the narrator’s relaxing voice puts me in a relaxed state of mind.
-
SA_rowdyLove this showThis show is so well put together and definitely makes you think. I love how they debunk everything. It’s my favorite part
-
Nana~NellyLong Time FanHow did I not know about this?? Ugh But now That I’ve found y’all I am on a mission to catch up! AJ please don’t ever stop! Heckle fish never change I absolutely love you!
-
blueticktockAnnoying puppet voiceThis is actually a very entertaining podcast, but I could do without that obnoxious puppet voice. Other than that, it’s pretty good. Would have given it 5 stars if not for that annoying puppet.
-
Boggyman 716Great show but the secondary characterThat character is not necessary and makes it too difficult to listen. How disappointing. I’ll check back in a while and if you drop the I’ll change my rating and start listening. If not, sayonara!
-
JigglenmaBALLZToo many commercialsCommercials every 2 minutes really!? Obnoxious
-
BigDscottyLong time listenerI’m a long time listener but lately this show has been off. I just listened to a 22 min episode that had 5 commercial breaks! No fish for humor, like AJ you didn’t need to change the show bud. You have a following for a reason
-
Swanson86Too many adsThis show could be better. Not the same without Hecklefish and with the ads every couple minutes, the continuity of the content is damaged.
-
Aabbccdd 1234Amazing Show, but VERY Ad HeavyThe latest episode, 590, is almost half ads. This is not the super bowl, chill out
-
jahshsvavLove/hate relationshipThe show is super interesting and extremely detailed and thought out, and full of greatly told and interesting stories, however Hecklefish is insanely annoying and is a thought-crashing distraction. Super annoying. I also understand using ads to bring in revenue but when I'm only half way through a 24 minute and there's already been four ads it's pretty annoying and distracting.
-
uga goo DawgNeed moreBest podcast and YouTube channel love everything about it and my main guy HF keep going
-
SalamanderSquid(:I feel called outOk so I almost always find an episode to zone out or when I’m going to bed. I love the ideas but this is the only podcast I’ve found I can listen to episodes for the first time and fall asleep. It is so entertaining but at the same time it just calms me no matter what kind of theory is being presented. I just started the mounds complation to go to bed, and literally the first thing he says is, “I heard most people listen to my podcast to fall asleep,” ok phycic. lol love the podcast and just wanted to rant.
