A good Wolves Pod that I listen to regularly. Solid topics and Ben brings good energy. There is some homerism in Ben’s approach and I’m not a super big fan of that. The other critique I’d have is that there are semi-frequent misses on details and/or thoughts that don’t align with reality (need some polish on CBA knowledge, player profiles and overall talent eval). Will continue to support the show!

This is the first podcast I listen to every morning! I’m continually amazed at the dedication Ben Beecken has to this content. Every day he brings fresh insights and makes it an interesting listen. His knowledge is superior and his delivery is the best! Bravo!

Great show. Thanks for all the insights. One constructive criticism would be to tighten up the gaps and dead air. Sometimes it’s 5-8 seconds of dead air between commercials or segments. Not a big deal but I sometimes flip to another podcast when the dead air hits. Keep up the great work.

Ben does a great job with the Wolves podcast. He does his research, he comes prepared, and he’s very objective. I’ve listened to his podcast for a couple years throughout covid and appreciate his hard work putting out a lot of good podcasts; almost every day there is a new one. I’m glad the wolves have turned it around and Ben gets to enjoy reporting on a good team since he has paid his dues.

For the second time in a row, Marney’s audio isn’t working on the post game show. The audio issues are so irritating, it makes those episodes impossible to get through. Why continue to upload them with issues?

It’s nice to be able to find Timberwolves news on a daily basis. That said some of the takes on this podcast are not well thought out. I can’t imagine having to come up with content every day on one team but fewer episodes that are more well thought out would be better.
