Good, except for annoying references to "Denver Media Mafia"

Good podcast for hearing the opinion of the Denver Post Broncos’ beat writer, Ryan O’Halloran. He definitely delivers his opinion and the hosts (there have been two since I have been listening) are pleasant. I could do without the complaints about the “Denver Media Mafia”, which is O’Halloran’s term for the other Broncos’ beat writers, though it is fun to spend a few seconds trying to figure out to which writers he is referring. Audio often of low quality, but I guess given the financial situation of the Denver Post, happy to even have a podcast. Wish there was 25% more content, either in frequency or length of each.

Love it!

Great podcast. Short, informative and fun to listen to. Also, I truly believe every football podcast needs its own Ryan, someone so salty and emotionally unattached to the team that they are willing to say all the brutally honest things we need to hear 😂 thanks to Kyle and Ryan for taking the time to make this podcast!

Good Bronco Beat Perspective

I like the Ryan and Ryan combo. They seem to keep it objective and not get into fan boy opinions. Good source for sideline and locker room perspective. Go Horse!
