With a show so steeped in storytelling, the Once fandom has such a level of enthusiasm and creativity. Unfortunately, as with many other shows, rampant negativity also plagues the fanbase. Thankfully with this podcast you get two of the most reasonable fans ever- Jeff and Colleen. Each episode has them giving their opinions and possible ways the show may go, but they also give voice to the ideas that listeners send in! One of my favorite parts of the Main Show is listening to their de facto third member, Brad, speculate. I love how both Jeff and Colleen try to keep an open mind, even if they don’t like a particular story line or arc. This is especially important for me, as my own thoughts tend to evolve as I get new information or as time passes. I really enjoy having Jeff and Colleen join me on my commutes!

So good, it's like the pretty shards of glass falling from the slow moving Snow Queen's magic purple cloud

The hosts are very good at picking up details such as Disney Easter eggs through out the show and comparing scenes with other scenes from past episodes where the show is referencing itself. However neither of these mean the script or the story are quality and I think these two are afraid to be honest and critique anything. I love OUAT and am not suggesting bashing anything, but I prefer to listen to a show where I feel the hosts are more honest and free and don't feel obligated to cheerlead. Perhaps they genuinely don't have any issues with the season, but the tone has taken quite a change in my opinion and I think fans should be vocal about what they think is working and what isn't.

This is my fav podcast. I love everything about it; they discuss the story, the writers, the stars and still give plenty of time for the fans to share their opinions. This podcast is the perfect companion to the phenomenon that is Once Upon a Time and it truly helps to enrich my experience. Hey, Roneys, if you are ever on the Oregon Coast, don't forget to stop by for apple pie and ice cream :)

I really love Once Upon a Time and listen to several podcasts. In fact, podcasts have kept me watching the show. This is the only one I give 5 stars. It is upbeat and fun and is for true fans of Once. I have unsubscribed to a few OUAT podcasts and should probably drop the rest. This podcast is refreshing!

I love that you're revisiting the Disney films as they relate to OUAT. I hope that if you do not get to all of them during the Summer, you keep this up in the Fall, even if it's only once in a while.

You guys have a wonderful podcast. It is so much fun! I love that you get input from your listeners and respect their opinions. I am not a Hook fan and I totally do not ship Hook and Emma, but I love listening to Colleen swoon over Hook! And Jeff makes me thinks of my husband as he loves all the pretty girls! Keep up the great job and cannot wait to hear some of your summer shows and of course the return of season 4. Excellant job! Thanks!

I listen to at least 5 of The once upon a time podcasts and You guys are my favorite. I love your dialog and your humor as a couple. I count on you guys to always catch something that I missed from the show or comment on the things I found a little off about the show. keep up the good work!

I’m so glad I found this podcast back at it’s beginning! I look forward to it every week, it’s like having a discussion with good friends about our favorite show. It’s easy to see (hear?) that Jeff and Colleen really care about producing a high quality podcast. They really put in a lot of time and effort to make this a fun, entertaining and informative one, and it is much appreciated! Thank you Jeff and Colleen, keep up the excellent work!

They have a ton of sound bytes and recorded "characters" that add to the podcast and make it great. They do their research and I can't wait for the podcast to come out each week.

I've been listening to Jeff and Colleen since I started looking for OUaT related podcasts in the show's first season. I enjoy listening to the husband and wife banter as Jeff and Colleen struggle to figure out the twists and turns of OUaT. I don't expect them to be experts, but fans just as their show title suggests. I listened to a couple of other podcasts about Once Upon a Time but dropped them in favor of only keeping this one in my playlist. I've fallen behind in watching the show itself, so I am behind on the podcast as I catch up, but I'm enjoying their show.

I'm an admirer of people who can keep their glasses half full instead of half empty. They always make better commentators as a rule. Not that this podcast is incapable of being critical, nor is any television show (even one as well crafted as OUAT) always perfect. In any event, if you're looking for sincere admiration and insight into all aspects of the series, you can't go wrong exploring aboard this vessel.

I listen to this podcast on a regular basis along with three others. This one, though the extra segments are cute, they are a little distracting. However, I don’t really think it takes too much away from the podcast itself. They plan out the show well and always have good theories and hidden easter eggs to share. Most of all their voices are friendly and it’s easy to keep up with the conversation. I would recommend this for families if families are interested in supplementing their weekly OUAT fix. If you’re looking for a supplemental OUAT fix, this is one of several good podcasts about the show! They always share stuff I miss (even if I watch it 3 times I still miss things that they see!) Awesome job guys keep it up and I’ll continue to listen. :)

I have stumbled upon this podcast after listening to the offical podcast. I have found this one insightful, sometimes silly, but over all quite a good podcast. They have been able to talk about the show, its connections to other things in pop culture, while trying to come up with some new insights. Some of the comedy bits are quite funny while others just fall flat. Its not perfect, but they try. A good podcast to listen to at work. Keep up the good work guys.

Glad I found you guys. Enjoying season 3 and your insights.

Love the discussion especially the first thoughts episode!! Always look forward to your podcast!!

Honestly this is one of my favorite OUAT podcasts.. It has good theories, good feedback and great hosts.. I've seen quite a few podcasts that spend a bit of time trying to justify certain characters' actions and bashing others which is something that frustrates me.. and there's absolutely no character bashing in this.. If you want to spend a good time listening to a good podcast you won't regret it!

I really enjoy this podcast! I love listening Colleen & Jeff and all of the knowledge they have of movies, music, myths and history etc… and how they notice even the most minor details in watching Once. I feel like I learn something new every time I listen. Also love hearing their theories. A great companion podcast to the TV show.

I love this podcast. I've listened to 'almost' all of the other podcasts and I just enjoy this one the most. Although they do give their opinions about things, they do seem to understand that not everyone has the same opinions. Which honestly is refreshing. If you love Hook as much as I do, this is one of podcasts that will not make you feel stupid for loving him. (That is a rare thing.)

Great information, you two do your homework! And sometimes that helps me look smart. Thanks for all you do. <3

One of the best podcasts that I have ever come across! You guys are both amazing and keep on with the amazing show!

This podcast is one I never miss downloading. Jeff and Colleen were one of the first to start a podcast when Once Upon a Time debuted and have worked hard to make it one for the fans where everyone's opinions are welcome. Also they provide deep analysis of the show as well as provide knowledge of pop culture references in Once. They do this in a more laid back style, kind of like welcoming us in to their home each week which I find I rather like. So if looking for a good Once Upon a Time podcast you will find it here.

This is one of the best if not the best OUATpodcast. Jeff and Colleen love the show and disney and each other.

I've listened to this podcast from the beginning, and it used to be my favorite. Jeff and Colleen are very enthusiastic, and are really trying hard to make a good show. I just can't listen anymore, because of Colleen's constant interrupting and rambling on and on about nothing. Her favorite phrases, "I'm just sayin..." and "interesting", among a few others just make me want to scream. It seems like since she started knitting while doing the podcast her mouth is disengaged from her brain. Unlike some others I do enjoy the Lost references, and I realize that this is a free podcast. I just hope that the podcast will improve again so I can come back.

I love this podcast! It is interesting to hear other people's opinion.

Love the Podcast. A wonderful comentary to a well written show. Good Job, Jeff!

I've recently became a fan of OUAT and this podcast. I really enjoy the casual conversation that Jeff and Colleen have with each other and the audience. They can be talking about plants and it would be enjoyable. It's the personality of the hosts that make or break a podcast and this show makes it. Big Love!

I had high hopes for this podcast. I even listened to a few episodes hoping that it would get better but it did not. This podcast is different because it does not always focus on the topic and to me that is very annoying. I am not interested in what their dog is doing, the weather, their family life or things unrelated to "Once Upon a Time". Sometimes I wonder if they actually watch the show because they miss major issues or themes that have been highlighted in several episodes. Thank you but NO thank you, I have unsubscribed to your podcast. Trust me do not wate your time.

JEFF and COLLEEN are at their best when they do their FIRST THOUGHTS the night of the show airs. I always make sure to d/l the podcast the next morning so I can listen to them as I drive into work. They use a chat site and have a forum to connect to their listeners. Many of the listeners also send in their thoughts about the program and that usually adds new insights. Jeff and Colleen are at their best when they discuss the characters and the plot line of the show. They also bring in aspects of pop culture... ie STAR WARS. Lost and other movies and tv shows, but those are usally lost on me as I have not watched most of those shows. This is one of my go to podcasts about ONCE UPON A TIME. NONNIE...

Great podcast. Look forward every week to hear Jeff and Collen's thoughts on the current episode of Once Upon a Time. Keep up the great work guys!

This podcast is just like a conversation with friends who are also OUAT fans. I especially like that there are two podcasts for each episode of the show- one immediately after an episode airs and one more detailed podcast later in the week.

I have listened to you since the beginning of last season. This is the first podcast I go to after watching. Great job!

Thanks for the great podcast!

This is my favorite OUAT Podcast! Thanks Jeff and Colleen!!!!

Jeff and Colleen provide a great forum for fans to discuss and analyze all things Once Upon a Time related. Their commentary is thoughtful, spirited, and good-humored. Their podcast makes you feel like you are sitting around with good friends discussing this amazing show. They are truly the creme of the crop of OUAT podcasters.

Been listening for a few months now and love Jeff & Colleen. They're great fun and interact with other fans & listeners. Keep up the great work! -Bianca Christine

I listened to one episode expecting to hear things about Once Upon a Time. This is what I heard instead: a weird condescending intro from Mother Goose, a explanation of the podcast, info on their website, the hosts' feelings on weather, apologies on a mistake about a cast member bio, more info about their website/etc, and then an awful comedy bit that had NOTHING to do with OUAT called Lockjaw Larry. I wasted several minutes waiting for them to get into OUAT. Seriously. Other episodes are good but it seems the more recent ones are diminishing in quality fast.

I love this podcast. Jeff and Colleen show a passion for OUAT and have a lot of fun with the podcast. They are "real" people the audience can identify with.

Thank you Jeff and Colleen, you're the best.

I really like the time and effort that is put into the podcast -- the initial thoughts, more in depth review and feedback are all great episodes. The fairy tales are an interesting look to see how they are brought into the show. Keep up the good work

I only listen to this podcast because I love the TV show so much. There are much better podcasts out there!!

Awesome podcast! Keep up the good work Jeff and Colleen :)

I absolutely love the podcast. Jeff and Colleen do such an amazing job. Their discussions are informative and hilarious and they have really created a fun community around this podcast. I try to be a part of the live shows when I can and they are always a blast. Tell Louie the Leprechaun and Don Juanito that Josh says hi!!!

This is a really wonderful podcast. The Roneys are fun and entertaining. Never a dull show. Great theories too!

How can I express nothing but awesomeness when it comes to Jeff and Colleen's Once Upon A Time Podcast. From day one Jeff and Colleen have worked extremely hard to bring it to where it is today. I highly recommend that any Once fan looking for a place to fit in, share their thoughts, and meet great people would be happy with this one right here. Jeff and Colleen are full of great and informative information. They go above and beyond their call of duty which involves a first thoughts show on Sunday night, a Thursday night show (includes voicemails), and a Saturday night live show (with emails and voicemails and interaction with fans). I'm happy to be a part of this podcast. I hope you'll swing on over and join in with us!

I will not say I have listened to this from the start. But I have listened to every pod cast. I started with the first and was hooked! It exactly what I was looking for. A pod cast that reminded me of the LOST podcasts I would listen too. And a pod cast willing to share the connections to LOST, as well as other connections to many things from starwars, Walt Disney himself and other fairytale stories! Great well rounded podcast! As so willing to work with their audienceIf not to a downfall. Jeff and Colleen could not have a bigger heart who want to make everyone happy! They are fun and easy to listen to! and by far the best OUAT pod cast out there! For those that complain about something in an episode such a knitting, or Lost talk or what ever, I say listen from the start. If you listen to EVERY podcast you will understand why discussions are why they are. Do not judge based on one episode. Imagine if LOST had been judged on the one episode such as the Paula and Nickie episode. Jeff and Colleen Keep up the great job and I'll keep listening just as all your other loyal listeners who have listened to all of the episodes!

I liked this podcast at first. It was the first Once podcast I found and it had a lot of potential. Now they talk more about the podcast and their fans than they do about the show. They ramble on about nonsense and the knitting references are getting annoying. Sorry Jeff and Colleen, just my opinion. You seem like really nice people. I keep trying to come back hoping it'll be better but it's not working for me.

Recently found your podcast. I am up to episode #40. I am a Granny who loves this show and your podcast is nice to listen to while i embroider! Keep up the good work.

This podcast is must listen after every new episode. I listen mostly for the episode analysis and theories but I like that they also do one for listener feedback. It's fun to hear everyone's opinions, not just Jeff and Colleen, although I do their take on things as well.

LOVE your podcast .. thanks for making the ONCE downtime bearable!
