Excellent Podcast!

I always enjoy this excellent podcast! Brian Boyle is really hitting his stride as the newest member of the podcast team. It’s great to have the perspective of a well-respected, former Ranger. Mollie Walker shares the same keen insights and interesting details found in her articles. And, Larry Brooks is a true master. I love his impressive knowledge of the game, amazing grasp of Rangers history, and thoughtful commentary. If you love the Rangers, you will love “Up in the Blue Seats”!

Not Yankee Stadium!!

Andrew, tge Ranger’s vs Islanders upcoming outdoor game is not at Yankee Stadium! Do they not edit these podcasts for inaccuracies like this? Not one on the podcast corrected him? Andrew needs to tighten up his game.

Getting better

Nice move going to 3 people Molly should be host (not Boyle). She is a beat reporter. She must stop the constant laughing. It is very distracting. I mean it is really distracting. When she sticks to hockey she is very good. No one is interested in your mother or birthday or restaurant you went to in Winnipeg Larry Brooks is an expert wanna be. A hockey reporter not a GM or scout or coach or talent evaluator. Why is he always “joining us later” or “needs to run”? Is he so busy? Brian Boyle is good already and will be excellent going forward. An actual expert providing real insights. Very refreshing. Overall it’s good. Please stop the phony we are all buds routine. Once again the age difference between 27 year old Mollie and 70+ years Larry makes for a weird vibe. Does not work
