Locked On Red Wings - Daily Podcast On The Detroit Red Wings

I’ve given this show an honest try for a while now and while I respect their hustle it’s pretty amateur at best. One dude doesn’t even use a microphone and it just sounds like you’re listening to a zoom call. And it’s a call between two guys who’ve read the NHL rule book and latest headlines but still have no idea how to pronounce a solid 73.6% of the players names or formulate a genuine thought on the game. Only the results of said game can be heard. There is a lot of , nasally guy - “what can the Wings do to be better? “ zoom call headphone guy - “well they’re gonna have to score more, and with that win more games.” Just sayin…

Generally good talk, but they repeat themselves and say ‘like’ too much - it often sounds like they didn’t prepare for the podcast at all.

Scotty and Brian are good enough to be added to a daily rotation if you love the Wings. The frequent uploads are nice and they are one of the best of the LOPN shows, but they leave a lot to be desired when it comes to Wings focused shows overall. Most shows are often way too emotionally driven and they often have the most seemingly casual takes, which after a bad loss or when on the losing streak makes this show near unbearable to listen to.

Brian and Scotty do a pretty good job at covering the games and finding topics to talk about during the offseason and between games. However there are some episodes where Scotty is so pessimistic about every topic, that I can’t even finish an episode. I feel if he could be more of a half glass full kind of host, this would be 5 star show.
