What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

The show is good and the guys have solid takes with great interviews. However, the way the segments load up is unbearable. Ten minutes of content with 3-4 minutes of commercial breaks repeating the same thing throughout. Can’t listen anymore until they fix this. No other legit podcasts are formatted this way

Tortfeasors · Apr 2024

being from around Dayton, appreciate the insight into the Browns. like the guests, banter between hosts, and honesty. But, the ads interrupting the speaker mid sentence is really annoying!

Eddiebrowns · Jan 2024

As an out of town listener, it’s great pulling up the hour segments throughout the day since I can’t listen live. Fun show, some of the best Browns coverage available. The back and forth between Ken and Lima is highly entertaining. Plus, the conversations not sports related are always full of laughs as well. However, something has changed recently where audio clips are not being played on the podcast, just dead air. I don’t know if this is a tactic to get people to listen in Audacy, but it’s kind of annoying. Hope it can be resolved. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for posting show blocks together in a more podcasty format, less jumping around makes it an even better listen. Great show, especially for a Cleveland fan who’s left Ohio you guys bring me right back.

Calabrese fan · May 2022

It could be a good radio show. They get knowledgeable guests and about 50% of the time they do ask good questions. However the other 50% of the time they act like 19 year old college kids who got to spend a day on the radio. Between the sophomoric “Whoooaaaa” they do together and the times they will have a good guest on for 20 minutes and will spend 12-14 of those minutes asking that person personal questions or bantering back and forth about banal topics before finally getting to sports, the show falls flat. On average I would say you get about ten minutes out of each hour they are on getting good information. The rest of the time is like a mix of shock jock and sheer immaturity. The show has potential if it didn’t try to be funny and clever. It isn’t funny enough to be entertaining and it isn’t serious enough to satisfy ones need for sports talk. It falls flat on both.
