  • Great content but FAR too many ads!!

    I listen to a lot of podcasts and just floored by how many ads are in this podcast. And the fact that an ad can start in the middle of a host completing a sentence is ridiculous! Who’s editing these shows?? I listen to podcasts hosted by lesser known entities and they may have 1-2 ads at the beginning and maybe another in the middle of the show. Other popular podcasts hosted by superstars are the same. Why is the NFL so hard up for ad revenue that there are more ads in this show than actual cont... more

  • What happened?

    This used to be a good podcast. As the name said, it would explain aspects of the NFL (like the evolution of the goalpost or evolution of team names). Now it's a completely different podcast, just talking about that weels NFL news (like dozens of other podcasts that do the same thing)

  • Far too many ads

    It’s not a bad podcast but, much like the watching an NFL game on TV, the sheer excess of ads makes the experience far poorer and ultimately not worth it.

  • Bring back Aditi

    Last year I found the podcast really easy to listen to and it expanded my very limited knowledge.

    Aditi approached it as a journalist and made it informative.

    The current co-host talks as if the listener has an extensive NFL knowledge and I’m just lost, really hard to listen to. Tried two episodes this season and turned off part way through both times.

    One example would be recently relating a story and saying ‘I won’t say which team I played at that this happened, I’ll leave it to you to work it... more
