Inconsistent Output

While Jonas and James are arguably the most well rounded Leaf analysts, offering a nice mixture of analytics and perspective, the frequency of the podcast has been spotty, sometimes going weeks without a new episode. I understand these guys are incredibly busy building and contributing to the Athletic, but if they cannot produce regularly, they should get some help, bring in guests, and not just do it as a tandem. Also, these guys need to figure out how to refine their production. Learn how to use skype. Ask Ian at the Leafs Geeks podcast for some pointers.
It’s inconsistent.

James acts like a know it all and is super annoying, with very mediocre at best takes. Jonas is the reason to listen to this.
Very shallow knowledge

“I would take the guys who aren’t performing off the poweplay?” “Who?” Ummm. Can’t name a single guy and then goes onto another topic. I’m not even a Leafs fans, but these guys know nothing. Complete lack of depth.
