Customer Reviews
Great discussion on concussions
Thanks for keeping this subject and the continued efforts to ensure the safety of the players. I also applaud all efforts towards improvement of helmuts and gear. Across the spectrum of sports
School Safety one sided and Pro gun
The episode discussing school safety was terrible. It was so one-sided. I cannot believe you only interviewed 2 local sheriffs. How about including one of the many Florida citizens against more guns in school or more specifically arming teachers. So one sided I was so incredibly disappointed. How about discussion other ways to achieve school safety? Maybe talk about safe gun storage. Your local Moms Demand Action chapter would love to discuss this topic more thoroughly.
