Rico Brogna: A New York Mets Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I listen to a lot of great Met podcasts but in my opinion as a lifelong Met fan “The Rico..” is by far the best one! Evan gives well thought out analysis about our beloved Mets. Evan and Pete work great together and give insightful commentary with just enough fanboy emotion. It’s a great find and should be part of any Met fan’s podcast lineup.

I would say this is the best Mets pod out there. Some times a bit redundant, and could benefit from the occasional guest host.

Evan and Hoff are solid together. Hof does tend to agree with Evan a lot which doesn’t make for a great back and forth.

Evan is solid here and reminds me of his days with Beningo. Not the biggest fan of him on his afternoon gig with Carton, but I understand they are catering to a different audience.

Hoff is also solid here. I understand he’s more of a producer, but I think the show would benefit if he was allocated a bit more time. Also, if he occasionally had a different opinion from Ev that would be nice too.

All in all a consistently solid pod.

I enjoy the show and Evan Roberts has always been one of my favorite WFAN hosts but the podcast is sadly lacking in the technology department. The commercials during the podcast are three to five louder than the actual content, which necessitates constant adjustments to the volume dial on my car radio. Worse than that, Pete Hoffman’s feed is regulated by a limiter with a slow release time, that allows the first word or two from his lips being overmodulated and annoyingly loud, and then, once the limiter kicks in, he is barely audible. This was heard to great effect on the “cough, sneeze and belch” podcast where every gastric utterance from Hoffman sounded like an amplified sewer backing up, because there wasn’t enough time for the limiter to do its thing.

Best consistent Mets podcast I listen to! Always my first listen for Mets news and deep dives!

Evan, you guys have such great content! The sound quality is unbearable, though. Maybe Pete can mute when you’re talking?? All your hard work is being lost to what could be a simple fix. I’d be happy to share how I’ve made things sound better on my podcast, if it would helpful. Love the Mets. Love your takes on the Mets. Don’t love the audio quality.
