Customer Reviews
Bruins Focused
After trying out several “Bruins” podcasts, this is my favorite. The hosts stay on topic, don’t get into the weeds with mindless banter. Once in a while they hypothesize, but mostly stay current on actual B’s topics - questions and issues that a lot of B fans are thinking.
Take a shot
Take a shot every time these 2 say “ again” you won’t make it 5 mins: my god
Always great commentary from these guys
Conor and Evan always have very valid things to say about the bruins. Love your guys’ coverage on CLNS, keeps me entertained through the boring off-season. There’s plenty of things to talk about out there nonetheless, always good speculation, keep up the good work!
