New blood is great - get the podcast figured out! FIGURE IT OUT!

The new kid working the board is a great add, has the unjustified confidence of youth, but slays in his hot takes. He needs to get the podcast up faster though. Please get more Brett Krahn “Hi Team!” shows, and some sort of nonsense bracket for the post pandemic summer.

The Best

This show is a lot like Seinfeld, it has nothing to do a sign fell but they talk about nothing just like Seinfeld! The boys will make you belly laugh guaranteed! Keep up the good work boys during this pandemic, you keep our minds off the craziness for three hours. Calgarian at heart, Brian from Iowa.
