Authentic and unapologetic style

I’ve been listening to John for over eight years, going back to when he was in California around the Marin County area. What I enjoy most about his show is the style, it feels like things you’d hear sitting around with buddies, going back and forth and talking through real topics without pretense. John does a great job weaving in insights and anecdotes from his past experiences to where he is today. I appreciate that he doesn’t sugarcoat his views. The world we live in is cutthroat, and he leans into that reality instead of dancing around it. Above all, his grit and grind haven’t changed. The same drive and edge that hooked me years ago are still there today. Overall, it’s a great show if you’re looking for honest, direct, and colorful takes. Keep it going Middlekauff!
Hard Stop! Had to abort today’s mailbag.

CGK in PDX

Really a hypothetical flag football game versus the NBA finals⁉️ That’s a legitimate question that you’re going to lend credence to coming off the combine. Congratulations on the kid, but we don’t need PxP on parenting. Stick to real FB. Instead we get you breaking down the Raptors roster on a FB pod. Be better! 😡
A must listen
