Customer Reviews
Bay Area even listens
Born and raised a Giants and later an A’s fan, I listen to Jake because of the topics and guests he gets to come on.
The interview with our Giants PA announcer Renel was great as they talked about her journey to becoming the voice of the Giants. We have loved her here for like ever and now a broader audience could see why.
But his other episodes are likewise entertaining and informative and I will continue to listen.
I have lastly appreciated his replying to questions and comments I have posed to him on Twitter.
Appreciate his time.
And you won’t waste your time tuning in to this podcast.
Thanks for the chat
If you love baseball, regardless of the team, this podcast seems like a new home. Jake’s clear voice conveys the awe and knowledge for us. Thank you for being the next generation of talented Reiners.
