  • Love Bernie Central

    I have always enjoyed reading and listening to Bernie on KMOX alongside in the past on 101 ESPN and now to hear his thoughts on every day sports on Bernie Central is so enjoyable and for me I find his thoughts a genius on every day sports. Looking forward to subscribing to it on IHeart Radio in 2026.

  • Love the Bernie Shoe

    “…like blaming the orchestra for the sinking of the titanic.” Bernie always says things that entertain, does the research few have time to do, and has tremendous depth of experience to share. Not only does he accept criticism, he actually invites my pushback.

  • Bernie is great, but who’s writing the headlines?

    I kindly ask whoever is writing the headlines and descriptions for these podcasts to tone down the language. All the “all capital letter words” and the false sensationalism isn’t really Bernie’s brand. It reads as attention-seeking. Let’s get the tone to match the message!

  • Another great Bernie joint

    Bernie is a legend, and when he’s talking about Cardinals baseball, there’s little to no radio or podcasts that bring better content, IMO. But, can the big fella do a show or episode where he doesn’t talk about the Cardinals’ run from 96-2014 and then scold the fans for being unhappy with current ownership and FO?? Is it possible to appreciate BDW jr and Mo for their performance but also be annoyed with the last 5-8 years and maybe it’s gasp, possible Mo stuck around too long and BDW stopped pay... more

  • Consistently good

    Bernie has been sharing good, unvarnished observations on STL sports, especially the Cardinals, for a long time and is still a must listen.
