John does a good job as host. He gives the listener solid Phillies content without biases. The best episodes are probably the solo ones. Justin can give quality content but tries way too hard to be funny. Liz essentially offers nothing but besides loudly cackling.
Love this podcast

I appreciate how objective John seeks to be while also giving a Phillies fan flavor. Great podcast.
John should be a solo host every show

Average Listener DO

Liz and Justin are truly un-listenable. John knows his stuff and is a true pro’s pro when it comes to the baseball analysis and show production/hosting. I hate having to skip any episodes with Justin or Liz on them because I know I’m missing out on some good stuff from John but I just can’t bear either of them. Not worth the time.
LOVE this show!
