A favorite podcast, though I have only a tangential connection to ECU. The three principals are bright and passionate; Mr. Richmond especially has a palpable sense of decency. Although Mr. Barber’s critical faculties are appreciated, at times he forgets his manners and demeans Mr. Richmond (e.g., his rude response to Mr. Richmond’s report on the Pirate’s preseason ranking). Mr. Rosenbaum could be a bit more assertive, as he has a wealth of knowledge to share.

Thank y’all for your efforts.

Any improvement in sound quality would be greatly appreciated. In addition, listeners might appreciate learning a bit about the employment of the principals. It is amazing that three individuals who seem gainfully employed could continue to gain such a wealth of information concerning the sports world.
