What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Not crazy about the audio, but worth dealing with, the information is top notch. Love hearing about Michigan from people who love Michigan. There is no sugar coating going on here, but the love for Michigan gives us optimism for the future. GO BLUE.

Meeechigan · Jul 2021

Great content and contributors. Have been reading the online version for almost two decades. But, the audio in the podcasts are a continuous, cringe-worthy problem. Listening to a 5/14 episode with Balas, one persons audio was like a megaphone - the other a whisper. I shouldn’t have to constantly adjust the volume. 5 star content with 3 star delivery.

Cizzlechris · May 2021

If you are looking for insider information on Michigan sports this is the podcast to go to! There are lot podcasts out there that regurgitate information that you find in other places (many steal info from the Wolverine). But nothing compares to real quality journalism and not clickbait hot takes. Nothing compares and another awesome content on top of a very rich subscription. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Listening to Balas and Skene offers unique insight and critical analysis unavailable on other fan sites. Love hearing them discuss football, coaching, and scheme. On the contrary, I listened to a couple of their other hosts try to analyze a similar topic, and it was like I was eavesdropping on two 13 year old Michigan fans. They were talking about possible defensive coordinator hires and it was just a pure waste of time to even listen. So it’s a great podcast, but not for every episode.

I generally like the in depth discussions of UM football but production of these has been poorer and poorer. Any discussion with Van Bergen is so low volume that you simply can’t hear half of what he says and when you can it’s muffled. Discussions with Skene also have been getting more staticky. What’s going on? Great discussions but if you can’t hear, what’s the point?

unhappy6 · Sep 2021

Would be decent content if host John Borton wasn’t coughing and sniffling the entire episode. And this week he added blowing his nose while his guest Fithian was speaking. Gotta have some self awareness - either mute your mic or learn how to edit.
