100% a phenomenal show!

Absolutely love to listen to these guys! The 1p-4p hours on my radio are locked to 97.5 because of these guys. Barry is one of the funniest people I’ve listened to, and Joel is arguably the most knowledgeable radio host in H-town!!! Joel will even talk the occasional golf!!!! That’s right, your afternoon will be that much better with these guys on the radio! Always gracious on location, and they aren’t afraid to tell it like it is. Tune in to the #UsualSuspects from 1p-4p on ESPN 97.5 and when they’re on location, go give Barry a huge hug!!!

If you’re from Houston, you have to subscribe!!!

I’ve been listening to these guys from day 1. They’re the best show in town, hands down. If you want to stay up to date with Houston sports, get the inside track in your favorite Houston teams and if you like comedy, this is the place to be!

Subscribe now and catch up on the inside jokes: solve the mystery of Nick’s hairline, find out why Barry only wears white jeans and thinks washing your hands is pointless, and get to know Joe-El, a witty, irascible Chicago Bears fan whose love of fellow radio host AJ “The Tan” Hoffman inspired him to take a stab at radio. I’m just kidding, Joel. Please don’t hit me. Subscribe today!
