Reviews

4.6 out of 5 stars from 253 ratings
  • Nose breathing - can’t listen

    Mike’s nose whistling/breathing into the mic makes this unlistenable. How has no one given this note already? Love the analysis and banter but so hard to listen to with the nose breathing coming thru loud and clear.

  • Good interviews and content but production value lacking

    Frequently this podcast is mixed to the left ear only. Should be a quick fix that really improves the end product!

  • Mic makes it nearly unlistenable

    Got to fix that one dudes mic or whatever the issue is as can’t hear any of his questions and makes the podcast that was once good now amateurish.

  • Bring back Eric & Tyler!

    I’ve listened to the two episodes without Eric Hanson and Tyler James. The quality of this has really gone down hill. This has gone from a 5 star podcast to a 1 star. I doubt I will listen to this much in the future.

    What a huge loss in the name of cost cutting. Ugh.
