  • Love the post game mash up

    Always fun pod and can’t beat the player lead analysis post game with the guys from Money Down. Perko does great moderating but lets Bernie, James, Soujourn and others breakdown the game.

  • Love the enthusiasm

    Just a great podcast to catch up on my childhood team. The Hebrew Hammer seems like he’s just chatting with these past players at a bar somewhere. Matt P does a great job as moderator as well. 5 stars

  • Ad count feels like NASCAR - too many ads

    Love the Hebrew Hammer ! Long time fan!!

    Please limit commercial content. 4:07 of ads and ad reads is excessive. It’s feels like the NASCAR of podcasts selling patches for ads.

    These guys are great. They interview very well. It is encouraging that former Badger stars are doing good things after their playing careers are over.
