Less fat jokes would be an improvement

Big Boston Fan

Play Tessie is a tough listen right now as Sammy can’t seem to help but make unnecessary fat jokes every few episodes. It’s a shame as the show is otherwise entertaining.

As a die hard Red Sox fan who listens to almost all Red Sox content this show took a huge dip when Bradfo left. No tempo, no real baseball insight, and mostly recycled media takes with no backing. Pretty annoying listen. Used to love it, needs to change
