Been listening to Czabe since he was in Charlotte, have tried to follow him “up and down the dial” throughout the years. Has always had his own fresh opinion on sports, and he makes no apologies for it. Great featured guests: #1 Notorious Jay ( where is he?), #2 Good enough Andy & #3 Scott & Solly. Thank you Czabe for always bringing the four seamer.

I have listed to Steve on and off since I got XM radio to help with my (for me) longish commute back and forth to work. He was part of The First Team I believe back then. I found his take on sports, society, and pop culture to be refreshing. Especially compared to the homogenized offerings at ESPN at the time. I think what I like about Steve is that he says what he thinks. In a corporate sports world he’s not going to get the notoriety and respect he truly does. Because he’s his own man. Thanks to technology I’ve been able to keep up with him ever since 2005 all the way here in Southern Ohio. I especially enjoy his podcast when mowing my lawn. It’s a great way to pass several hours. I love it when a podcast can start out with a discussion on AI (not Allen Iverson), transition to NFL draft and throw in some pop culture discussion. You guys need to be listening to this! Do I always agree with Czabe? Heck no. I think he’d be disappointed if I did. Do I get mad? No. It’s refreshing. Thanks for all you do!

Refreshing to have a sports talk show without the same ol’ beat to death topics and tired hot takes.
Czabe and guests provide a good mix of sports and general life discussions which people can relate to, all of which keeps the show fresh and entertaining
Keep them coming, and I look forward to the football season
Go bills

Been with Czabe for decades. Even before hot takes there was Czabe. The place to get sports discussion without agendas. You will get opinions, not fluff ( unless the topic is fluffy). The only sports talk I get is Czabe and Whitlock. Scores are on your phone. Man stuff, homie.
Dave O aka Opie · May 2026
I used to subscribe but Czabe had been coasting for about a year and his podcast is no longer what it used to be. Short podcasts (when there actually is one) and the loss of many interesting regular guests has killed his podcast.
Much better choices elsewhere.
JRBG · Aug 2025
I listened to Czabe on local radio for ~20+ years and to his podcast since it started in 2018. His takes on Sports and pop culture are generally good, but political rants are terrible and make the show terrible. It is his show and he is allowed to have unhinged political rants, but does not mean we have to listen…
