I moved to bc so when I go to work I can start from hour one with no commercials. Only complaint is the audio quality and volume levels. I have to crank it max in my car to hear it. And then Rhett is louder then the studio guys!!! Fix that stuff and it’ll be perfect.
Must listen

Listened to an episode two years ago for flames commentary, stayed for the “professionalism”. Hockey is the only sport I follow but I still listen to every episode. Keep up the good work!

These two sound like two junior high boys with a mic before the morning announcements at school. Inside jokes and constant trying to be funny with immature giggling. Stick to sports -
