 * Delete This is nothing but a promotion for someone's podcast. Unsourced except for the external link to the podcast, no reliable independent sources found for it and no claim to notability other than its mere existence. Possibly even an A7 speedy. Meters (talk) 02:32, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
 * The talk page comment and the article edit summary by the article creator This page was created so that there would be no confusion over the name when searching for it in a search engine. speaks to the promotional aspect of this page. Meters (talk) 02:37, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Self promotion? There are many ways to self promote and Wikipedia is not really one of them. With all the social media options out there, Wikipedia should really be a last desperate attempt to promote. I can see that this is a community that is very passionate about the integrity of Wikipedia and I commend you all on that. However, I do not agree that this article was created for self promotion. It was simply created to differentiate itself from other search engine results that may have the same name in the search.

 * Delete as Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion (see WP:NOTPROMO), including attempts to manipulate search results by creating articles. Bakazaka (talk) 03:27, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
 * If the article is considered to be self promotion, then why do other podcasts and tv shows that deal with similar subject matter have an article on Wikipedia? The ESPN show Skipp and Shannon Undisputed for instance has its own Wikipedia article that appears on google search results. I don’t consider it to be self promotion, and I don’t consider my article to be self promotion in the same way.

 * Please sign your talk page posts with 4 tildes, like this ~ . No-one said "self promotion". We said that the article is promotional, meaning that it seems to serve no purpose but to promote the subject of the article, which is the podcast. Your comments suggest that you may be involved with the podcast  If this is the case please confirm this, and read WP:COI. Meters (talk) 04:42, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete Wikipedia does not exist to serve as a free advertising forum.--Paul McDonald (talk) 06:13, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete Article is purely promotional. There isn't any real secondary coverage of the podcast.GPL93 (talk) 15:46, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:GNGMgbo120 (talk) 11:39, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG and article is entirely promotional in nature. Adamtt9 (talk) 13:25, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Worst failure of WP:GNG i've seen. No notability, the article is bare and lacks references, and from the looks of it, it also violates WP:NOTPROMO. To the bin with this article. James-the-Charizard (talk) 16:37, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and Charizard. Cbl62 (talk) 15:11, 18 January 2019 (UTC)
