Just Another Olde Boy ,

Andy Pollee

I can’t listen to Andy when he is on the radio so the pod is great for me. Nothing beats Andy’s takes and references to events from 40 to 60 years ago. The man can seemless drop Norm Van Brocklin into a discussion about sitting qbs…Not Alex Smith, not Brett Farve…Norm Van Brocklin. That is some deep knowledge that todays youngsters need to learn.

No one in radio/podcasts I’d rather join in screaming “Get off my lawn!”

Andy is a pillar of DC sports talk. Probably the most knowledgeable when it comes to the DC sports history. Keep up the good work!
