Customer Reviews
Brilliant
Funny, informed, thoughtful , great chemistry between the hosts
World Class podcast
Just want to thank Gary, Alan, and Micah and the production team for a great podcast. The combination of banter and stick with real football insights is wonderful.
Also, just listened to Gary’s interview with Kasper. What of my favorite podcast listens ever. Grant it I played goalie so I’m a little
biased but his insights about football but even more so about life were incredible.
Keep up the world class work.
Disappointment
I’ve been looking for a good, accurate, and interesting football pod for a bit. Heard about this and gave it a shot especially since I like Micah on cbs. Listened to one episode on the euros and I’m out. These guys are making predications for the round of 16 without realizing that players are suspended. Can you at least do some research? Just real basic stuff that’s infuriating but pretty widespread in this space. My search continues.
