Let’s talk about a Lions win !

Love the pod cast, long time listener first time reviewer.
I really enjoy a positive experience with your show,so many local personalities try to create interactions with their negative takes on area sports. Let’s talk about a Lions win not Chicago!

Keep up the good work.
