A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Love hearing your perspective, great discussion that doesn’t feel like multiple hours. One suggestion is to check on the audio. I have never noticed Ben’s audio when he pods with Shawn but it is noticeably louder than Jakob.

Ben and Jakob are some of the best analysts out there. They both are guys who love to debate and really dig into the why of football. These are the kind of guys where you’re grateful they let the episode go an hour longer than planned.

Love the show. I sometimes want to revisit what you said but I don’t have time to scrub all the way thru. Can you add like 4 to 10 timestamps. Even just general ones please
