Worst Seats in the House w/ Michael Russo & Anthony LaPanta - Minnesota Wild Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

With Russo and LaPanta teaming up, this podcast is fantastic. Insightful, behind the scenes info on the Wild and broader views that cover the league. Love the stories around being on the road and life as a player and as members of media.

It only took 287 episodes but this finally sounds like a semi-professional podcast. It’s sure nice to have it not sound like Russo isn’t recording in a bathroom with his laptop mic. Neve a good thing when the guests calling in sound better than the hosts. Content is always great, hope this sound quality keeps up.

I’m always excited to see a new Russo-Souhan show is available for download. Incredible experience between the two writers and it makes for an awesome story time...especially when Souhan gets Russo to go on an epic rant! Great show guys I really love how you do this with the listeners who are able to attend.

I’ve been listening for YEARS now. Russo quite simply is the best at what he does and wild fans are lucky to have him. In a way I miss souhan but the shift to Lepanta was definitely the right and fantastic move. Mike now has a legitimate hockey and wild mind to go back and forth with. Lepanta is around the team just as much and has a different perspective from mike and that’s a great thing. The reality is that dozens of other wild focused media outlets are really just fanlines of what Russo puts out. This is the main show - not to slight other shows.

As huge Wild fan I can’t consume enough content about the team. I always question why I listen to Russo so much though. On the shows he’s too negative and often just talks about the same topics every week. He’s also just too into name dropping...we get it you’re around a lot of people in hockey. I want to hear insight into how they are playing not just how much you hate Victor Rask for the 50th time. Also I find that he only reads questions from a few select listeners.

Anthony on the other hand is great. He offers a solid point of view and often speaks more from a hockey mindset.

I say if you’re a fan of the Wild listen to the show, but just realize you might need to fast forward a bit.
