What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Matt and Drew talking NFL in their own NFL podcast was not on my bingo card, but I’m here for it. Adds some fun to my football fan experience!

LauraBfield · Sep 2025

Matt and Drew are real dudes talking about football like the average person. If you like Stephen A. or any sports commentator that takes themselves seriously, you have come to the wrong place. Super fun, and with Warren Sharpe’s help, you might learn something.

Bagsby · Sep 2025

Hearing Drew laugh genuinely is my favorite thing ever. I don’t watch the NFL, and I barely watch football but I will listen to every episode.

BGeezy4uk · Sep 2025

I couldn’t dream up a better combo than Matt and Drew. There are a lot of podcasts and internet shows that give opinions as “experts” and its refreshing to have these two where that’s addressed from the start. It won’t be long before you feel like you listening in on a conversation with two of your friends. I can’t recommend a podcast more.
