How many negative comments about Justin and Liz before John politely asks them to leave the podcast? Justin can’t speak for 30 seconds without a failed joke that he finds to be absolutely hilarious. Liz’s voice/laugh make me want to cut my ears off.
Enjoyable

But so much potential. I’m pretty disappointed by the hot takes of the guests. I thought they had some analytical bona fides (baseball prospectus and Sabr). I get the data doesn’t always make for a fun, mainstream podcast. But too often they have opinions that leave me asking “why do they think that?” Too often they just “feel” a certain way. Humor and analysis can work together. Call me a grandpa and wistful for firejoemorgan of yesteryear I guess.
Please Find New Hosts!

PodcastsReviewer

Now that this Phillies season is essentially over, I want to respectfully request the producers find two new hosts for this podcast. John and Liz bring nothing interesting to the discussion of the Phillies. I feel I like I’m listening to two lawyers on a blind date at CBP, fighting to sound smart and interesting while talking about baseball as they’re each on their phones, trying to line up dates with other people for later in the week. Can you please find two hosts who really know baseball and will help educate the podcast listeners on the subject. Philly doesn’t need another podcast or another radio show hosted by silly fans who are long on stupid, knee-jerk opinions and short on anything of substance. I have tried, over and over again, to listen to these two on your podcast. I’ve given it a chance. And I can’t get through more than ten minutes of these two pretenders talking about baseball. It’s like listening to a ChatGPT AI voice try to do a Phillies baseball podcast. Both John and Liz are just the wrong people for this job. Sorry.
