  • The Perfect Cards Podcast

    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

  • Good, consistent analysis, too many abrupt commercials

    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

  • My favorite Daily Check in on Cards game

    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!

  • Awesome Podcast

    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!!!!!
