It’s almost July, the dog days of summer are near, and the countdown to kickoff feels closer and closer with each episode of Until Saturday. The horn section blasts in the intro, I’m bobbing my head to the beat, and Ari and the boys are brining a daily oasis of content through the long drought of the offseason. Whether or not I agree with their takes, their daily topics are fresh, relevant and engaging. I look forward to enjoying another season this fall with Ari, Ubben and the rest of their team. Great work guys!
Very entertaining pod. Loved reminiscing about the villains of the past. Lots of good memories. LOL while bike riding several times. Only negative was Nate’s calling Ohio State insufferable. Go Bucks!
At the end of the 2023 regular season I wanted to get out of my sports echo chamber, and I’m glad I found Until Saturday. It’s a high quality CFB podcast with bearable ads. The show often hosts interesting and knowledgeable guests. I like Ari’s cynical frankness about the business of the sport, but I have to say that I agree with Dave about 99% of the time. CFB is more than just Ohio State, Michigan, Georgia, and Alabama, Ari. The Big12 does not cease to be relevant just because Texas, who just had their first strong season in over a decade, and OU, who can’t keep a QB around, are off to go get beat up in the SEC. UCF, Cincinnati, and Utah are strong programs coming to join a rarely down Oklahoma State and Kansas State along with up-and-coming Kansas and a slew of tough competition. Laugh at TCU for getting stomped by Georgia in the 2022 championship all you want, but the Big12 isn’t out here serving up a Vanderbilt or the Big10 West. The Big12 CFB also has more heart. Just look at this last bowl season and which teams/conferences had loads of opt-outs. I love the show and I look forward to scoffing at Ari’s opinions on the next episode.
Love this show. Best cfb pod going. Tons of insightful analysis with some people who are clearly plugged in. That being said, Ari I support your stars matter thesis and agree with many of your more controversial takes. Somehow you’re brave for saying that good players help teams win and I want you to know there are people who support you. Keep it up both of you!
When this pod is just David and Chris, it’s fantastic. The thoughts and analysis don’t show bias or favoritism. They praise teams, coaches, and players when they’re good and they shoot them down when they’re not. Damien on the other hand is such a Bama and SEC homer. All of his comments have an undertone of condescension if it doesn’t involve Bama or the SEC. Get him off this show! For now, I’m out.
A podcast that was already a heavy SEC lean has made it clear who they intend to focus on now and on into the future with the Harris addition. A podcast that was tolerable when they had Ari Wasserman, but Harris draws a line in the sand. It’s not where he’s from, it’s his bias for “SEC or bust.” With Ari there was at least a mild rounding out, but now it’s nearly unlistenable if you aren’t from the South. And that’s ok. The show hosts prefer only southern fans to listen. And that’s ok. Just a heads up.
