For now we will be here, giving it our best shot and feeling thankful for the opportunity and for every single view, like and new subscriber. 🕹️🧠❤️ FYI, some of our favourite games include; Golden Axe; Streets of Rage; Double Dragon; Halo; Twisted Metal; Gears of War; Pit Fighter; Resident Evil, and many many more.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
