  • Mike, Stop Interrupting

    Guys, I enjoy the podcast but Mike interrupts Ked, Brad, and Matt way too much to the point that I almost turned it off. Most recently the episode recapping the Duke MBB loss. Please be conscious of this.

  • Interruption

    For I in Illini like Ked, Brad , and Matt Stevens. Find Matt ti be knowledgeable and opinionated (in a good way). However for Purdue 2024 game and earlier pods host kept interrupting Stevens. Turn off so quit midway and unfollowed. Take it for what it’s worth.
