Hilarious duo

They are the best duo and have a unique sense of humor. The peewee football analysis is by far the best segment and a must-listen. Looking forward to next season. They could talk zero sports and it would be just as entertaining, if not more.

The Best

Of all the podcasts I listen to this is the best. SVP and Stanford Steve just have great, funny conversations that make you feel like you would like to sit down and have a beer with them. Their conversations about life other than sports is just as engaging. SVP is the only person left at ESPN that I will tune in to.
