  • Not a Hater

    Don’t want Bomani to think I’m a hater by giving him anything less than a full 5 stars. Also, the show deserves it.

  • Same old guest… Same old stories….Shows record too early

    I was hoping when the show came back it would be freshened up. Then Nick Wright came on as a guest. Roy Woods was next…Bomani needs to freshen up the show format. I just don’t like the show post ESPN. Also Bo is so liberal now. Where did that come from? Bo has also gotten lazy and records the show too early and misses out on reporting major stories.

  • Dr. Seuss

    Guy can’t say the word “actually” without adding “factually”, and somehow thinks he’s not a dork. Write a nursery rhyme.

    Obviously a smart man. Also clearly making little effort to be informed on most of what he talks about.

Q: What was it like spending time with Alex Honnold?
I got a chance to go out and spend time with Alex at his house, and I spent the day with him and his wife, who I absolutely adore. I learned that it's not about the views, but about the mastery and the belief in oneself necessary to take such risks.
