  • I love Roman Mars and his excellent team of investigative reporters. Thank you Roman!

    99PI is always informative and easy to listen to.
  • Super Informative

    I thought that this Podcast was super informative with ideas that I had never heard before, especially the idea where individuals being interviewed should be treated as though they own the business and not from the perspective of clocking in 9-5 just to receive a paycheck. They need to show that they really care. When you have the mindset that you own the business you will do all that you can to keep the business and not just allow the individual or company calling in to just go to another competitor. It is a game changer when you hire people who sincerely care about the business they are involved with and not just go through the motions of just wanting the day to be over with.

  • Great app, functions well, good UI but..

    Is there a way/plan to cast to Google speakers? That would make the difference between 4 and 5 stars!
  • Almost a Stitcher (Classic) replacement

    Stitcher made some horrible life choices and I’m on the search for a new podcast app. After briefly looking at the others, Breaker seems to be a pretty clear leader. It does so well what Stitcher used to do, it lets you prioritize your favorite podcasts, sort them and listen to them in the priority you choose.

    I still have yet to test it with my CarPlay (who is driving many places in 2020 anyway?). So this may be a feature request.

    The things I want to see that would quickly take it to 5 stars and keep me from ever going back to Stitcher (if they get their App together again). 1) Ability to search and add shows while you are listening to a show. I’ll start the search, but it doesn’t actually work until I pause the show I’m listening to. 2) have “back 15 sec” in the minimized view or the lock screen. 3) Start play on App open!! I don’t want to go dig around for the play button when I first open the app. I’m usually ready to just start listening. 4) an alarm feature, but I’m pretty sure with other automation I can tie this to the iOS alarm.

    Things it does better, but I haven’t had a chance to explore. The social aspect of it! Rating and liking podcasts. The longer I use it, I’m sure I’ll find more features that will keep me a forever convert.

  • Lack of settings & useful features

    Seems solid for social features, but unfortunately that's not what I want from a podcast app. I want full control over the podcasts I listen to and the ability to listen to them anywhere. This app has no settings for individual podcast subscriptions. I normally use Downcast, which is the most powerful podcast app out there for having control over your subscribed podcasts. I want different settings for each podcast and the ability to stop/start each with my watch. This doesn't have an Apple Watch app and no web-based app either. There's potential here, but it has a long ways to go.

  • Shouldn't need to sign up to use podcasts

    There is no reason a podcast app should require signing up to subscribe to a podcast. There are plenty of excellent podcast apps that don't require this. I'll be sticking with Overcast and Downcast.
  • Great app overall but need some bugs fixed

    I love using Breaker, the social features and podcast discovery, but the issue with play/pause ultimately has become a deal breaker. Sometimes it takes 20 seconds for the podcast to start playing aftter it’s paused, or to get paused after you hit the pause button. Please fix this ASAP🙏
  • 2 main bad things

    I like the social aspect, i line that i can sorry podcasts from oldest to newest, i like the wide selection of shows. What i don’t like is how the app drains battery like crazy and how it just stops playing right before an episode ends.
  • Great concept but some play/pause issues

    I love the idea to try and get listening to podcasts to be a more social activity with “like” and “comment” functionality and a easy way to mark episodes as listened!

    Unfortunately I think I’m going to have to go back to Apple podcasts because playing and pausing from the iPhone lock screen is inconsistent. I’ll hit pause, the screen will indicate it is paused but the audio continues! Navigate into the app and sometimes it’s frozen. If it does pause successfully, and then I play it again from the lock screen, it seems like the app often doesn’t track my progress through the episode any more. All very frustrating. I really hope the developers can fix this issue and I’ll come right back!

  • We Make Sounds Podcasts

    Ok These CV19 Virus stays seem low. Gear up reporting good but you need more science quotes and not from non degrees science but jobs a lot out there. Lab Updates w numbers and opinions findings vac testing etc. A little music background might be nice or interesting sounds instead. Good Work. Everybody break w the pack and report correct tracking numbers on TikTok. Thanks SEAL Team Six Founders
