Customer Reviews
Intelligent, insightful and inclusive
What a wonderful podcast! Musa and Ryan are so well grounded in their understanding of the game and approach each match with preparation and thoughtful commentary. They never resort to cheap shots but are not afraid to tell it like it is either. And it’s refreshing that - after a lifetime of having to draw breaths - I can listen to a podcast about football knowing I am included as a fan of both the female and male game and a woman.
A great way to keep in touch with the world of football
Musa and Ryan are a pair of great humans talking about the game they love with huge intelligence and respect. I Highly recommend this podcast to the football loving fan of any team. Musa and Ryan thank you, you are much appreciated.
Stadio is five stars (or three straight champions leagues)
Listening to Stadio I had an epiphany: All other football pods are catfishing.
Ry’s Grogu energy is perfectly balanced by Musa’s well-hydrated insights. The pair raise the bar for the football pod genre, merging high concepts and pop culture with a staggering wealth of football knowledge.
Above all, Stadio showcases two empathetic, intelligent and articulate football fans. Their podcast is a biweekly love letter for the beautiful game, the athletes that play it and the people who adore it.
Put simply, it’s the audio equivalent of three straight champions leagues.
