Customer Reviews
Great show for a Ranger fan
I live out of market, so the local media always talks about a different team. Mollie and Jake make it so easy to get insight to how the Rangers are playing and the direction the front office is looking. The weekly Larry Brooks segments are great too to drive everything home. Perfect length. I miss Ron but the show is in good hands.
Strange crew
Jake is a total zero bringing little value. Seriously why is he on the show? Not knowledgeable and definitely not funny. Mollie is nice and tries hard but is in over her head. She will be fine eventually but not ready to “host” anything. Larry Brooks is past his prime plus the huge age difference is almost uncomfortable. No chemistry despite faux attempts to tell everyone that they really get along. Molly please stop giggling. It is annoying. Giggles randomly for no reason. Need to bring a real hockey insider. A player might be a good idea (not Ron D) Help Btw the forced laughter which pops up at the strangest times is flat out weird. I guess it is an attempt at “hey we get the inside joke…but you don’t “. Please stop. It is a major turn off for us normal fans
Podcast
Brooks the biggest homer ever always has been always will on Rangers payroll… moving on
Lady doing the podcast has the worst voice ever sounds like she’s 90 and a heavy smoker
They are Giddy about Vescey signing average player at average salary guess they are estatic a player wants to play in NY and not have to overpay like for Trocheck Troupa and Goodlaw
Sounds like a propaganda podcast
