What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

One of the best shows for Buckeye fans. From recruiting to daily information, a must watch/ listen.

JCarp01a · Jun 2024

I love the morning 5, great insights but most importantly no longer that 30 minutes. Other Buckeye podcasts, blah, blah, blah for an hour or more!! If you can’t say it in 30 minutes or less, the rest is ego.

Bluedevilbuckeye · Jan 2024

Content is excellent… but technical glitches are consistent and have been for about the past year. None of the technical issues have been addressed in that time. For me personally, this makes the listening experience unenjoyable. It’s frustrating to be listening to speakers who are constantly cutting out and unintelligible because of this.

What up TC · Oct 2022

Dave and Dan do a phenomenal job of breaking down aspects of OSU football. The short 20-30 min episodes are great if you’re driving to work or you’re walking on the treadmill. Bill Kurelic is the best when it comes to OSU recruiting. JBook and Pat are great follows on Twitter. Great podcast!

buckeye_02 · Oct 2022

This isn’t a competitive show anymore. It’s the same rambling in circles every show. No structure. No creative ideas. Not particularly funny. The worst part is they say exactly what you want to hear as a fan and they blatantly lie. They pander to the uniformed fan and twist every little thing as a positive. Their predictions are wrong 80 percent of the time. I use to listen because it was all that was out there but with new shows taking off like menace to sports that offer interesting nuanced takes about the team I love that don’t lie to me are the obvious choice. If all you want to hear is the same blind optimism every day this is for you. I recommend buckeye talk, and menace to sports. Funny nuanced creative structured shows that have all the insider knowledge and recruiting coverage you’d need as a fan. Honest takes and a cast you’ll fall in love with. I hope this show takes a step forward with all their 247 sports resources but for such a massive show and support it feels like some freshman super fans poorly articulated wish list.
