Easily my favorite CFB Pod. Ran into David this weekend during Brunch hours. Nice guy! Love the work you guys put in, it truly makes my weekends feel special. Y’all get me hyped up for my 10hr CFB marathon, every Saturday. Keep up the phenomenal work.

I’m a journalism student at CU Boulder and briefly met David in a press box once. He’s an Incredibly genuine and smart guy. I discovered this show only a few weeks ago but it’s become a must listen. I particularly love how the guys share the behind the scenes of their job. It makes reading their stories more fun and weirdly inspires me as a journalist. Thanks guys!
