Customer Reviews
Great content but...
Zach Lowe, this is great content... but can you please refrain from interrupting your guests when they’re making good points just in order for you to indicate your approval of what they’re saying... you’re taking the wind out of their sails and they don’t get to make their state their case/make their argument in full. It’s unfortunate...
Updated 30 January 2021: also, if you’re going to have guests, make them feel as though they came on to have a conversation and back and forth, not to listen to you go on a monologue for 5-10 minutes at a time (as you did early in Monday’s show with Kevin Arnovitz). You’ve clearly been hanging around with your mate Rachel Nichols and trying to replicate her opening salvos on The Jump.
