  • Good podcast about baseball

    Good to hear a coach talk about something that’s not pure velocity. I played with him a summer in AK and dude is a smart guy and obviously knows what he’s talking about. Thanks for the content Bo!

  • Very frustrating to listen to

    The flow of the discussion sounds like a bad tick tok video, without video… good content, but very annoying recording style, seizure inducing.
