These guys do a great job covering the Kings. I have followed James ever since his Cowbell Kingdom days.
Great Kings insight, atrocious movie recommendations

Love hearing the guys talk about the Kings. Brenden, don’t worry about not watching these movies. 90% are trash
Inconsistent

Sometimes it’s good. Sometimes it’s bad. Just like the Kings.
Would be 5 stars

Love the pod and the content all three of you produce on all platforms. Only reason this isn’t 5 stars is because pods are sometimes uploaded a few hours before a game, which discourages me to go back and listen to an episode if I don’t listen to it prior to the game (info is sorta outdated). None the less, great pod. Keep up the great work. Go Kings!
