  • Nima’s Pio Esposito rant

    Most recent episode Nima went on a long winded defense of Pio Esposito when Carlo suggested he embellishes contact. This rant motivated me to turn off the pod and do other things. Absolutely insufferable reaction to a general observation during Inter’s win over Verona.

  • Inzaghi knows how to use DiMarco

    Of the English language Serie A podcasts out there this is my favorite. Sometimes it can be annoying when Nima fixates on a topic and rants over Carlo, but overall quality discussion. These guys have more of a realist outlook versus one or two other podcasts that take a more fanboy type approach.

  • Disappointing

    The audio engineering is terrible. Be prepared to turn down the volume when Nima becomes upset. His booming lisp will blow out your speakers and eardrums. Carlo and Nima will often talk in circles and over each others for 5 minutes plus. Carlo thinks David Icke predicted the future. Overall, these guys don’t seem to be the brightest bulbs. It’s unfortunate. There aren’t many quality English podcasts that cover Serie A. Add this one to the list.
