Best Bengals Pod

Paul, Jay and Co. are the cream of the crop when it comes to Bengals news and analysis. Always a must-listen, whether you are a casual fan or a die-hard.

Best Bengals Podcast

Paul Dehner Jr. (formerly Mike Doughty of 90's band Soul Coughing) is the best, most entertaining, and reliable source for Cincinnati Bengals news. He delivers, even while suffering a minor stroke. His insight is on-point, and he is funny, as well. I like the format of 3 co-host, giving the show good variety.
