Fantastic!!!!!

Love the dynamic duo of Shek and Hench!

Haydenyou are ,

Great Addition!!

11-24-23- Hench got a caricature!!!!!New review after this paragraph -/ 1st episode with Hinch was a home run!- always hear his name dropped on Bill Simmons podcast so nice to get to hear his takes. A natural podcaster so looking forward to the future with Shek and Hinch! 12-30-21- Just read a review not liking Hinch- crazy talk. Love his passion and doesn’t let his fandom for his hometown teams skew his opinions on upcoming games. - main line me more Hinch. Have loved Dave’s football opinions for a long time now. Loved the Ddfp podcast when he was employee of the NFL, and still really enjoy his love of professional football. His only downside ( sorry Dave) are his hockey opinions. Dave is such a fanboy of the Penguins it really hurts his analysis of hockey. He suggests crazy rule changes and generally just doesn’t understand hockey culture and the ways of the game like he does football. Dave on football=great Dave on hockey = suspect. Oh yeah- never understand why podcasters apologize for making podcasts too long-if I like a podcast I want it to be as long as possible -

Guy theft ,

Bitterness

Angry old men lament about the once mighty, now defunct teams they root for, while claiming the present good teams are just lucky. Real hard hitting analysis with a lack of mirth
