  • Great (except the ads)

    Long time, devoted Tier 1—love the content and feeling connected to my hometown from afar. Just more annoyed by the ads; lately they are way more frequent and annoying to skip. Wish they would rein these in a little or offer an ad-free subscription option.

  • Great show but ……

    Love all the awesome Padres content. Woods, Ben and Paulie have great chemistry. However I could do with less information about Wood’s sex life. TMI Man.
