Customer Reviews
LOVE THE VBALL CONTENT
thank you Jon for getting all the interesting content! more vball stuff please :) ❤️❤️
Great guests and interviews
If you’re a fan of Wisconsin Sports, this is definitely a great podcast to follow. I was a big fan of Jon while he worked with Mike Heller on a sports talk radio show in Madison. For whatever reason, the station let Jon go, and my favorite sports talk show was no longer. I was happy to see Jon land on his feet with this podcast. I love the variety of guests and Jon is always good natured while asking interesting and insightful questions. Definitely worth your time to listen!
Love this pod!
Jon provides excellent content week after week. A must for all sports fans!
