CC is just a blast to be around, I appreciate his honesty and that reminds me of Charles Barkley. But man Ryan is a true professional and guides these conversations like a maestro. It’s obvious that he truly loves sports. It’s great that these two aren’t hesitant to have opposing perspectives as well.
Great podcast that transcends sports

Ryan’s fake laugh when he’s trying to fit in with black people is the equivalent of getting your anal rectum probed by aliens. CC is fantastic and has a lot of great points and cool stories and I like the guests. But Ryan is awkward, annoying and if I could listen to a podcast with all of Ryan’s parts edited out and just CC talking to himself, I would. Anyways, 5 stars for CC.
CC is pretty good Ryan is horrendous

RR is terrible. Straight cringe worthy. nothing is worse than listening to him try to compare being an announcer to being an athlete. warming up your voice is not the same as warming up before a ball game. Ryan, you are literally just talking. And stop trying to be one of the boys. You’re a nerd from Fishkill, New York. Just be yourself
