It’s a must listen

I’ve never taken the time to write a review for a podcast before…but this show is too good not to do so. Arpon and Marc are measured,
Insightful, informative and entertaining in equal
measure. Follow them, and soon you will be eagerly checking for new episodes (which appear like clockwork) every Monday and Friday.

Cheers guys, and thank you!

Best Habs podcast.

This is such a great podcast each Monday and Friday. Love the new jingles and the new intro music by Greg MacPherson is just awesome. Love your work, guys. Just great stuff!
