Podcast Reviews Rating Scale
My expectation is that the distribution of reviews will shift to the right since I have finite resources to consume all of the content that's avaialble and I am very likely (almost definitely) going to focus on only the better/best content and I'll very rarely "hate listen" terrible content.At the risk of drawing the ire of well-known advantage bettor Shipper, here's the podcast rating scale that I do my best to abide by when completing these reviews -
| Rating | Criteria |
|---|---|
| 10 | Listen at 1x, listen multiple times. Legit top right podcast episode. Should be impossible. If you get a 10, you probably did something very wrong and gave out some massive edge killing information. Not only unique, value adding betting information, but perfect production, extremely high entertainment value, a reference podcast that will be referenced for years. |
| 9 | Listen at 1x, very clear and concise info / edge / alpha haven't heard anywhere. Great unique content, unique voice of someone near the top of the industry while also still being highly entertaining. Probably the most realistic highest tier achievable. |
| 8 | Very entertaining plus there is some info / edge / alpha that should help with your betting. |
| 7 | Overall entertaining - worth the listen and enjoyable. If it's not entertaining, then the subject matter is worth listening to the podcast. 7 or above are pods that I think if you're seriously in the space, you should get some exposure to time permitting. |
| 6 | Mostly just fine, but one of two key moments that may or may not improve your betting, but at least makes or should make you think. |
| 5 | "It's fine." Almost all of the pods produced in this space will be around this level. Nothing that great, nothing that terrible. A lot of words to not really say a lot. Entertaining enough to listen at increased speeds. |
| 4 | One or two slightly egregious things said that annoyed me enough to not give them a 5 or no errors, but just almost no value at all whether betting or entertainment wise. If you skip this pod and those below it, life will go on. |
| 3 | One or a few slightly egregious issues plus some other issue - bad production, boring, too long (that means me). Minor touting or touting that annoys me greater than the baseline shilling. |
| 2 | Egregious errors, math errors. Moderate touting above the baseline "Welcome to Planet Earth everyone is shilling" behavior. Very low denominator content that appeals to people who have too much free time. |
| 1 | Platform given to egregious tout or individual. #LiesMounting. Really terrible math. Host eating a bag of potato chips throughout. Trains running through the living room every 15 minutes. 2x not fast enough so you contemplate running into traffic to make it end. |
| 0 | Re-evaluate your life choices. Seek professional help. Sell your microphones on Ebay. |
