Customer Reviews
Diverse
They do such an exceptional job of giving a unique and global understanding of the sports world. Great for dilettantes and rabbit-holers alike.
Great Podcast
Love this pod! They acknowledged one of my reviews on an episode on my birthday as well! Not to mention the great analysis on top of that. I’m leaving a review to say how much I appreciate the all rabbit hole final 2020 episode. Rabbit holes are my favorite!
Best all-rounder sports podcast
Great sports analysis from 3 great journalists! Sara Ziegler is a fantastic host and is so great at guiding the conversation and getting the best out of her crewmates Neil and Chadwick. Love that they talk about a variety of sports and how they don't shy away from "controversial" topics (yes Sara NFL teams desperately need to stop hiring convicted domestic abusers and rapists!!). Thanks for the quality work y'all do every week. Love the show!!
