Flying Forearm

These guys are my awesome equivalent to long read articles. I love to listen to this podcast when I can take in the whole episode in at once. It’s endearing when they dive deep into characteristics of a specific function of the game. I love daily grind podcasts also. But I hear info on this podcast that I’d never hear anywhere else. Great personalities and very easy to like. I’d recommend anyone who enjoys the sport give them a listen.
Great podcast
