Worst Sound Quality

Florida Sports Fan

This comment is meant to be constructive. While the content is mostly good, this podcast is hard to listen to because they don’t appear to have anyone on their team that understands the importance of the quality of broadcasting. They sorely need an engineer that can help them with this. Also, they need a speech coach that can help them improve their broadcast voices. Ethan, for example, swallows his words and can be unintelligible sometimes. Slow down and speak your words clearly. Finally, veering into politics is a bad move. You will lose listeners.
Well intentioned but refusal of critical thinking

HeatThinker

Too much glass half full perspective which prevents them from accepting objectively true and valid criticism about the fall from grace the organization has seen. More time is spent criticizing the perspective of fans and online accounts than the decision makers of the franchise themselves. Fantastic people and hardworking people and good people all across this podcast however for sure, and they care to deliver vast topics and ideas for the fans to hear which is appreciated!
Ehhhh
