  • Great podcast but stop censoring

    Camron and Drew are great and KC always brings good insights so I love listening but unfortunately they are censored by Bulls management which is shame and unfortunately not a surprise given this awful Bulls management team.

  • The Censorship is LAME

    The host refused to talk about any alternative opinions that didn’t agree with the LaVine trade. LAME CENSORSHIP. Ppl understandably have different opinions on that questionable trade. DONE LISTENING ✌️
