As a diehard Red Sox fan, it’s maddening to hear a Sox podcast where the hosts can’t even pronounce Worcester right or figure out that the team celebration is a plane, not a bird despite all of the reporting about the team's recent turbulent plane ride. They rarely fact-check, constantly say ‘I don’t know if this is true, but…,’ and clearly do next-to-zero prep. On top of that, it’s nearly all negativity — are you even fans? I get wanting to be objective, but it’s more a place to complain than offer real insight. Honestly, it’s peak male podcast energy: just assume you can talk without doing the work and still expect to be respected. Real fans notice.
