© 2023 What’s the Verdict? with Nick Reit and Jess Jones
Description
The Supreme Court of Culture is in session! Join the *dis*honorable judges Nick Reit and Jess Jones, along with a rotating roster of interesting friends, as they discuss their strong (and never wrong) opinions on a wide range of topics. In addition to debating the week’s Verdicts, everyone will gush about their personal objects of adoration and their ugliest pet peeves. It may be true that everything in life is just tit for tat, but everything in WHAT’S THE VERDICT? is tit ~or~ tat. Wednesday is judgment day, snitches. Produced by CubanBee Productions.

It’s the last episode! The Courtroom ushers in the end of an era (right before Eras Tour!) as Nick, Jess, and Producer Brian reflect on 100 episodes of laughs, growth, and attempts at game segments during their final Lazy Gorls’ Hang. As they look back on the What’s the Verdict legacy, they look ahead into the culture they hope to see in the future. Thank you to all of our guests for being interesting, and above all, thank you to all of our Judgies for staying interested. That’s that on Tat…C...

So, you heard the news…The Hot Awards nominees are out! Aaaaaand What’s the Verdict is coming to a close :( While there is absolutely zero drama, Nick and Jess explain “What Happened." and then deliver the greatest blow to pundits of all time: an award show based entirely on vanity and being hot.

To celebrate our final eps and The First (and Last) A...

Shhh, the secret publicists are working! Jamie Lee is yelling! And the Cocaine Bear is mothering! Nick and Jess discover major details about each other, like who slept with piranhas and who actually hates post credit scenes. They draw the parallels between Miley and Mandy and Hailey and Kylie...and the Jonas Brothers Broadway residency and the Hunger Games. It’s an ep that will make you say, like Aubrey Plaza or Joshua Bassett, “Jesus Christ”. Follow @theverdictpod on Instagram and Twit...
ANgela BAssett DID THE THING, Jamie Lee is all of us, and your woman kings, Reit, Nick and Jones, Jess have a lot to say about it! After a close read of Ariana DeBose’s BAFTAs rap (featuring selections from Jess’ 7th grade Broadway rap), Nick and Jess break it down. Soft launches versus a hard launches, the celebrity they would have the best banter with on their talk show, and whether or not “Look What You Made Me Do (Taylor’s Version)” *actually* leaked. Here’s to the ladies who launch! And ...

Court is back in session! And who’s on trial this week? The Grammys, of COURSE. Not only that, but everyone’s suddenly on borg with BORGs, the reality shows Nick and Jess think they’d do best on, and 80 For Brady is #2 at the box office! Then, the Judges serve up some compelling defense for Valentine’s Day and Venmo culture.

An episode about Ticketmaster, awards season, the changing entertainment landscape, AND Joshua Bassett doing something alarming? To quote Amy Klobuchar quoting Taylor Swift, we know it “ALL TOO WELL”. Jess speaks truth to black cherry seltzer flavor power, and Nick finally gets his thoughts on “Charlie Bit My Finger” off his chest. Much like Andrea Riseborough’s Oscar nomination, this conversation is full of surprising thoughts and revelations. “Who run the world?” Judgies! Follow @theverdict...
This episode is for the dolls! M3GAN, Joe Burrow, Mia and Lucia, the women who are talking in Women Talking, and Meryl in Only Murders?!? We have…such doubts, but it won’t stop us from having SUCH opinions (and maybe even second opinions)! Is there a best way to prepare chicken? Is Mandy Moore the Meryl of our generation? Can we get a plane into the Dolby Theater?! Follow @theverdictpod on Instagram and Twitter, and like, review, and subscribe wherever you listen!
Two podcast hosts with Stanley tumblers walk into a Zoom…you know how it goes. Nick and Jess are praying AND telling this week, from the M3GAN cinematic universe to completely spoiling The Banshees of Inisherin. Nick helps Jess fill out her Golden Globes ballot. Jess helps Nick pick out what to put on his desk. And they both help each other decide, once and for all, just how well-rated soup actually is.

New year, old Tits! Join Nick, a concertgoer, and Jess, a person with three cavities, as they recap their Top Tits of 2022. Once again, they find themselves in the position of asking, “Why aren’t we in the Emily In Paris writers room?” They look back on a very Puthy year, and look ahead into a new era of Miley Cyrus to try and forget that they weren’t at the Bangerz Tour. They bravely demand more people respect summer as THE girl of the seasons. 2023, here come your Judgies! For more of this ...
Call us Rocco at the reception desk, because we’re BACK! Nick and Jess share the valuable lessons learned on a trip, including admitting your foot is wide and accepting the flu that will inevitably come after being coughed on in the streets of Portugal. Then, celebrities are called upon for the ultimate judgment test: “White Lotus, Knives Out, Nine Perfect Strangers, all, or none”?

Rest assured, you will not have to wait for 2000+ people ahead of you in the queue to get your hands on this red hot episode! Jess describes being a tribute during The Eras Tour Pre-Sale Debacle, and Nick laments not being able to get into Ticketmaster to see the Shucked musical schedule that same day. Then, a breakdown on what is an ‘acceptable’ Friendsgiving, analyzing what the stakes of Heather Gay’s choir actually are, and new armpit behavior unlocked! Follow @theverdictpod on Instagram a...
Specific, nuanced, hot, confident, fiery, and titillating…you could say that about Aubrey Plaza and Theo James, but you could also say that about Nick and Jess. After the highly-anticipated WTV review of Don’t Worry Darling and the first two episodes of White Lotus season 2, Jess lays out her plans to get to the Eras Tour (and to get Nick into the meet and greet room), and Nick discovers HBO merch. In this courtroom, to be brave is to swing a baseball bat, share your fashion online, and use t...
Ok, we’re gonna get this marketing meeting started. Role call! Lisa Rinna M&M (Nick)? Present. Martin Short (Jess)? Present. An official Midnights review? Present. Peanut butter coffee? Present. THE Heather/Whitney push? It’s all HERE. Plenty of new product pitches in this ep, but don’t even think about stealing any of our big ideas, Judgies, because karma is…a cat.

We hope you’re ready to #Believe in this OoKy SpOoKy episode, featuring three-time guest and host of The Fright Of Your Life podcast, Riley Cassidy! Jess is booked up because of Midnights and Nick is still toying with costume ideas, but Riley “is a STAR” because she came prepared to share the joys and the dramas of the horror world, just in time for Halloween. Five paragraph essays, fanfics, and salad dressing recipes…OH MY! For more spooky takes from Riley, follow her on Instagram and Twitte...
“I used to think I was a safe space for you” - Lisa Barlow, but also Nick and Jess about the Internet pre-Try Guys/SNL drama. No culture is safe from the death blows of the Court’s gavels this week. Charli D’Amelio DWTS deniers, glittery gel pen lyrics, Heather Gay’s “...YOU?!”, Charlie Puth’s 34 minute album, the “ng” sound, and wildcards – watch your backs, because EVERYTHING is on the cancellation chopping block. Much like another trip to the White Lotus, body bags WILL be provided in this...
Welcome all members of the Try Public – Bri Guys (because Producer Brian is here!), well drinkers, humble pie eaters and Bad Cinderellas alike – to this delightfully chaotic episode! Hear the team TRY to understand YouTube drama, TRY to get behind “Maroon” as a Taylor Track 2, and TRY to invent their own Real Housewives taglines. Because on this podcast, if at first you don’t succeed, maybe try again, but if you’re a guy on YouTube talking about his wife a lot…maybe don’t? Follow @theverdictp...
