If you are not subscribed to this Podcast subscribe NOW!! It is by far my favorite out of all the ones I listen too!! Hunter’s topics are never boring. He doesn’t say what the fans want to hear, but what’s true. Love this Podcast!!

khloe klark · Sep 2022

This is a decent podcast. I love the content being basically all Pittsburgh, which the reason I listen. There are a few little things that would bring the rating up though. 1) Domingue is not pronounce "Dominique"--during the preview episode and preseason episodes, this was like nails on a chalkboard. 2) the host, while certainly passionate, isn't always the most knowledgeable. He frequently misquotes stats and/or events. This coupled with the tendency to get sidetracked from the current point make for some odd moments. The phrase "I think" is fine. "I'm pretty sure" makes it sound very haphazard. 3) this may be nitpicking, but when the host brings up how long he has been a fan, then goes on to tell us he is in his mid 20s, it somehow cheapens the opinion or expertise of the host. I'm not saying he can't or shouldn't host, but he needs to couch his "lifer" status for a bit in my eyes. Overall a good podcast that is centered on the favorite team of this listener. I love that it's even available, I just wish that at times it sounded a little less Wayne's world and a little more sportsnet.

A must-listen for not only Pittsburgh of fans, but hockey fans in general. The host, Hunter Hodies, is incredibly knowledgable and passionate!!!

JUICYGRRL · Aug 2021

Really enjoy the podcast, listen every time a new episode comes out. Insightful, fair and critical when need be. My methadone for when there are no games for the night, if you’re a penguins fan it’s a must subscribe.

Quantum of History · Mar 2021

Hunter is a very passionate fan. But he is not always a professional observer. He’s young, dramatic, and intense, but he frequently offers opinions as facts. He gets lost down rabbit holes and seems to forget to go back and finish what he was talking about. Hunter would be a decent color commentator if paired with a more professional journalistic cohost. On his own, I don’t consider him with listening to.
