Go PHNX!!
Love the amazing combo of Saul, Espo, Lindsey, and Gerald!! I appreciate the post game scoops from Gerald. Expo’s enthusiasm is off the chain! Lindsey always brings the crew back to center and has top tier segues! Always appreciate Saul’s UofA roots, Bear Down! This is a must listen pod for any Suns level of fan. Y’all have to catch the newest segment with EJ, EPIC!
Great Content!
I love listening to this podcast to catch up on what’s happening with the Suns. It’s a good casual listen with great content to keep you updated.
Causal Fans
It’s clear this group does not understand much about the game.
