What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This is the best Twins podcast, and in my opinion, maybe the best sports podcast out there. Gleeman and the Geek are highly knowledgeable, well-reasoned, and very insightful. Unlike many of the MN sports podcasts out there, they are anti-hot take, and I will prefer that approach every time.

Jeremy Lutz · Sep 2025

After the Twins blew out 40% of their roster, the analysis and insights I get from both this podcast and the Patreon corollary are far more interesting than the actual games the Twins are playing on the field. While the podcast is fun when the Twins are good, it’s riveting when they’re bad.

Nasty War Nob · Aug 2025

Great mix of analytics, reporting, and self-deprecating humor. Really well done. Aaron and John are a treasure for Twins fans.

minileroy · Apr 2024

I came across this podcast when it was brand new, it has gotten better with time. As a Twins fan living in Texas I was looking for a way to listen to Twin Cities sports radio, but streaming radio wasn’t a thing yet. What I found was this podcast. John and Aaron have smoothed out the presentation over the years but they have always been entertaining and informative. If you like Basball and your interested in the Minnesota Twins you really should give this a try, I think you’ll find it value added and enjoyable.
