Top Shelf Podcast For UK Football and Basketball

If you are a serious University of Kentucky Football and Basketball fan you will want to be a regular listener to this podcast. It features the sportswriters who cover UK on a daily basis. Also, if you are an obsessed UK fan like me you may not always like or agree with their opinions but you will be hard pressed to find any deficiencies with their knowledge of the subject matter or their thoughtful analysis.

I particularly find their discussions educational and helpful in abating my tendencies to have Neanderthalic knee jerk reactions to a disappointing UK loss.

Great Game-to-Game Prep Listening

I am one who doesn’t get to read all that much by the nature of my day but do get to listen to podcast. Really enjoy the game-to-game prep this provides. Particularly the interviews with reporters from UK opponents.
