First part of the show was bizarre, as the hosts were seemingly trying to talk their podcast audience into listening to their podcast. Seriously?? Then they begin to get into the discussion of the football game and one of the hosts actually admitted to being “out of pocket” and not even watching the game that was about to be discussed. That was enough for me.
Hosts are usually negative: hard to listen to

On an instant reaction episode, the first thing that comes out of the host’s mouth regarding Tech upsetting a highly ranked Iowa State on the road: “I am fighting every urge to be negative about this win.” SMH I can’t with these guys anymore. If you do listen, highly recommend a playback speed of 1.25x

An excellent podcast. They are timely and one even sounds like a young Mark Adam’s. The man is something of an enigma… The podcast is updated regularly. Content is great and they post on Twitter pretty much daily. Can’t imagine what more you could want from a Texas Tech / Sports podcast.
