Beats out Titus’s podcast

First things first. This and The Mark Titus show are #1 and #2 for CBB podcasts. I don’t usually have time for both though, so I end up going to this first. Why? 1. Length. They keep it under 90 minutes and are sticking closer to the old OSP format than Titus (though Titus seems to be fixing this lately sticking to one guest per show). 2. J Kyle Mann is a better guest who has a better rapport with Tate than anyone Titus has brought on yet (again Titus has been closing the gap with Jake Marsh lately though). I’m surprised I’m going with OSP since I’m the same age as Titus, have enjoyed his stuff since the Club Trillion era, and generally felt he was a little better on the mic than Tate, but here we are.

It’s like listening to Bud Abbot without Lou Costello

I listened for over a month and now I’m out. He can’t control his guests who talk over him and his attempts at humor often fall flat. His bit about Doc Rivers “playing with his meat” was par for the course. He never rises above middle school humor and he thinks things are funnier if you say them loud. I wish he and Titus would have stayed together but if I have to choose I choose Titus. I should have known better. I tried to listen to Pushin’ Thru and bailed on that too. He just works best as someone supporting the main host.

Deleting this game as I write ,

Best college basketball pod

Tate please ditch this other Kyle man person, you’re better off alone he adds nothing. 3 stars until we get back to who matters.
