Getting Better!

Finally made it through a full episode! Enjoyed the last show. Would love to hear more about your guys personal sneaker history and more discussions about rare sneakers and not just new releases and hype shoes. And if anyone anywhere even thinks about talking about Slides unless it’s to disgrace anyone for ever wearing them I will probably have to stop listening 😉

Fun Easy Listening

I enjoy the perspective and lightheartedness of these guys delivery! Great job and work subscribing to!

Houston D. ,

Just 2 (funny) dudes

Hilarious, insightful, poignant and downright enjoyable to listen to. Favorite part of my Friday is listening to Ryan and Tanner chat about their favorite new drops and happenings in sneaker/hypebeast culture A+++!
