What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Great to have the pod, wonderful guests, particularly Braves historian Sam Wallace. I would listen more often but for the host. He certainly makes his guests comfortable but he injects too much of his personal story and misses opportunities for context. The Sid Bream episode should have reminded listeners who Bream is, the era he played, etc without assuming a 40+ lifelong Braves fan was the listener.

I just finished listening to The Day the Braves Caught Fire episode and I can say without a doubt after about 8 yrs of listening to podcasts, this is one of my favorite episodes! It was so interesting and very very well done. So many different players and press were interviewed and shared their memories of that day. I was a middle schooler when this happened, and was a die-hard Braves fan even then. Hearing so many players’ perspective on this day, and hearing clips of that night’s broadcast immediately transported me back to my childhood. I thought about how I used to stay up way past my bedtime and “sneak” listening to Braves games on my stereo with headphones instead of going to sleep. This episode made me laugh, gave so much context to Fred’s debut game, and the nostalgia of that time brought a little tear to my eye as well. SO WELL DONE!!

I’ve really enjoyed your recent guests - the beat reporters covering the team. It’s great to know a bit about the guys behind the stories. I would love to see you all have Grant McAuley and David O’Brien on too. Keep up the great work - listening to the podcast is one of the highlights of my week!

As one of the many TBS kids that grew up watching them on TV- I enjoy listening to the interviews with the old-time Braves the best! It’s fun to hear the variety of guests that they have on the shows! My only critique would be that the questions for the guests are way to long and drawn out- just ask the question and get out of the way and let the guests talk more!

Ted in Indy · Apr 2021

I love the Braves and love any kind of Braves content. But from a purely podcast and information standpoint I think Greg and Rickey talk wayyyyy to much. I love getting to listen to their great guests but unfortunately it takes them 5 min of storytelling and explanation to ask a 5 word question. I noticed this when the podcast first started but hoped it would get better and I don’t feel like it has. So guys if you can take any positive criticism it would be learn how to interview a little more and how to concisely ask questions so that your guests will be able to have more in the conversation. This may lead to you getting to ask even more questions and is getting to hear more from these great guests. Thanks!
