Props

I’ve been listening to your show for several months and I’ve noticed a great improvement in the show over that time.
Rob, you’ve gotten much more comfortable with your guests and it’s becoming more conversational and great to listen to. I really enjoy all the different guests you’ve been having. Keep it up!

eruc solomita ,

Kane Rob

Excellent podcast of Locked of Gold gophers 5 stars ! The Minnesota Golden Gophers Football tesm secure another win as win vs Northerwestern and we recap the dominant victory on today!s show

Hiway77 ,

Good intent but failed attempt at daily MN content

Update:
They found a good, dedicated host. Kane does a great job. He works his tail off and has solid content. Love the guests and interviews. More of those please. Enjoy the guess the Gopher trivia as well. I would recommend follow up interviews with former Gophers on what they are up to now and to relive some good memories.

I know it’s a free, ad-supported show but the only (and it’s a big one) negative is that are ad reads are waaayyyy tooo lengthy. Still.

Overall, enjoyable for Gopher fans. I recommend it.

Original (June 2021)
It started, as all things do, with great potential to fill a gap for daily Minnesota podcast content. However, it left a lot to be desired. Felt like 50% of content was ad reads. The other content was by Nate, who has no connections to Minnesota and lives nowhere near there, but tried his best. They have since ceased production except for a couple of corporate ad pushes of content that has nothing to do with Minnesota. Avoid this show until they get somebody in that understands necessary content and can provide reasonable reactions to Gopher happenings.
