Brendan is the only writer who can balance the fan side of the Cardinals (despite only following them journalistically at this point of his career) and the professional side. I leave every episode with a new perspective on a player or situation. It’s rare to leave a baseball podcast with something to think about, so that’s why Brendan is the best
An awesome listen every time
I only gave it four stars because half a dozen times through an hour long episode, Loud commercials will randomly cut into whatever the host is saying. I’m not complaining about ads in general, but I don’t understand why we can’t have segments or something where the ad is placed rather than randomly happening. Kinda ruins the listening experience
Never have left a review before, but I can’t recommend this post game content enough! Such level headed content, presented in a way that’s very thoughtful. Thanks for the daily efforts B Schaf and Support this man in Patreon! Go Cards, and with incoming 699 , 700 and beyond… go Albert!
Hmm…well it seems my prior review never posted?
Anyway I was going to ask if you could leave a link to your YouTube page. If I can’t find it then others may not as well!
I began listening early this season and have enjoyed the show so much I appreciate that the podcast is actually daily. Many others are “daily” but take 2-3 days breaks frequently. That isn’t the case with this podcast it’s been truly daily. You’ve done a great job covering this historic season. Congrats on the new addition to your family. Go Redbirds!!!!!
