The guys at the Devil’s Den do a great job of breaking the game down. They are life-long Duke guys who appreciate the history of the program, but also embrace where it’s at now. If you aren’t a regular listener, what are you even doing with your life?

There aren’t that many Duke podcasts out there. And the ones that do exist tend to be a little homer-ish for my tastes. I appreciate the balanced perspective of this pod.

Zion Killing-em-son · May 2022

By far my favorite podcast for Duke Basketball!!! After, as John said, the exhausting year, it was great to hear the perspective of loyal and knowledgeable guys! Would not miss this podcast!!
