Empty Netters Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Chris and Dan Powers are the real deal! These guys have perfected the art of entertaining hockey podcasting. With engaging and charismatic personalities, they cover the best sport in the world in a way that has something for everyone. From interviews with NHL players that are fun, interesting, and far from the same old hockey conversations to honest takes that separate them from the heard of humdrum hockey media, I look forward to this show every week; both during the season and the dog days of summer. Just like Patrik Stefan became notorious for missing an empty net, Dan and Chris should get the spotlight as the new stars of hockey media. Their undeniable energy gets me pumped up to play 11:00 PM rec league hockey games and consume as much hockey as I can on a daily basis, just for the love of the game. The Empty Netters pod hits the twine every time…I’ll never skip an episode. Thanks, boys!

As the title says, best hockey pod out there. Like chiclets but more entertaining and with less douchebaggery. Great insight, very funny hosts and the most random-yet-entertaining tangents you could imagine. Keep it up guys, thanks for the laughs!

The hosts (who are brothers and have great chemistry) know a ton about hockey, but they also make it accessible for people who are newer to the sport. My only criticisms are the mics, which have a really bad crunchy sound and often sound overblown in headphones, and the random ad breaks which are placed in weird places. Good podcast

Love this show. They have good interviews and good opinions. They’re also very funny which makes the show better than most hockey podcasts.
That being said they need to fix their audio. You need to have your audio basically on max to hear the show even if you’re doing nothing but sitting in a quiet room. Doesn’t help that they talk as if it’s 2am and everyone in the house is sleeping and they don’t want to wake them up and they put their mics 40 feet away. So your car audio or headphones need to be almost maxed out to hear this show. Also doesn’t help that they randomly yell when they conflict with each others opinions so you turn the audio down and then they go back to a middle whisper. They have this transition sound for advertisements which is a slap shot that no matter what is always like 10x louder than the entire show. So RIP your ears if you’re using headphones and RIP to your speakers in your car because there’s no warning when it happens. I was in stand still traffic multiple times when this slapshot transition sound happened and each time the car to my left and right look at me with concern because of how loud it is. Myself and others have mentioned this for a long time through their videos versions but the audio never gets better. Not knocking the show as I love this show and get excited every episode but I have to give the show 4 stars until they fix this audio. It’s starting to make me not want to listen sometimes because if I’m walking or doing anything mild while listening to this show I am just not able to hear a single thing and I have to stop and rewind constantly to hear something clearly. Love the show fix the audio please.

Love the combination of great analysis & laid back humor.
