A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.
This podcast is split into two podcasts, an early week guessing of what the spread will be for the upcoming week and a detailed betting preview of the weekend's NFL games. Both shows are fantastic and all the guests have great in depth knowledge of NFL and have good educated, research backed opinions. The host Gill is the cherry on the cake. He brings it all together and he is funny and also knows the game inside out. Gill alone makes this podcast a must listen but EVERY guest is fantastic. A must listen for NFL fans.
I highly suggest you do not tail the weekly picks these guys give on the Mega Pod. They aren’t particularly sharp in the NFL, but that’s to be expected when you’re betting into lines midday on a Thursday. Todd says it all the time, pre-flop in the NFL is too hard nowadays and there’s only a few people who can do it profitably(I am also not one of them). I think Gill’s best sport is Tennis, but I’ve never looked into it enough to say if he’s better in that market. The pod still makes for an entertaining listen, especially when they have a good guest. I enjoy the analysis that goes into survivor and the last two questions. Gill is a fantastic host that is adept in managing the many personalities. Todd and Mike both have their moments. That being said, Guessing Lines w/ Chris Andrew’s is some of my favorite content in the space. The Monday show is a must listen.
Gil and the crew do a great job of mixing entertainment with great NFL info. Must add to the weekly rotation.
Authentic Educational Entertaining Gill isn’t one of the slim ball sports betting “gurus” peddling picks for money. If you want to learn a little about sports gambling and pick up some nuggets that will help you make a wager... look no further than Gill and his Beating the Book podcast.
I’ve listened to Gill Alexander for years. Whatever show or format he produced the very best gambling content out there - just the right balance of statistical based insights and entertainment. What’s more, Gill clearly loves and respects radio and broadcast history. Everything he has done is crispy produced, interesting and consistent. So it’s disappointing that the famed Mega Pod has declined so much recently. The rotating guest is almost always the most interesting and informed perspective which says a lot… most of the rest of the analysis is basically Todd telling the same jokes and making gut calls. Every episode has sound issues, Gill sounds disengaged and don’t think I learn anything new in an hour plus of unfocused chatter. I hope the MegaPod can come back - better produced and better informed but it’s no longer a must listen.
I love the content, been listening for a couple years now. But the audio quality is so terrible lately that it’s almost impossible to listen to. Hopefully they can sort it out soon!
