  • Disappointing

    This was better than what they put out late last season after Charch left but it’s still a far cry from the quality of the content from Charch and Brian Johnson. I don’t get what Fantasy Life doing. Why acquire a company and destroy it? Unrelated to the podcast, but the app was the worst thing I’ve ever seen (it didn’t even correctly award free agents to the highest bidder). The analysis on the podcast sounds like I’m listening to people that have less guillotine experience than I do. The one gu... more

  • This podcast won me the league!

    This was my first year in a guillotine league and I didn’t have a clue how to manage my team. This podcast had awesome advice including preserving my FAAB budget and not wasting money on short-term players. Kudos to these guys for their advice!

  • Unfortunately Terrible

    Trying to listen to Paul continuing to repeat the same “bowel loosening level of existential dread” line over and over was agonizing. It wasn’t funny the first time, and got more and more cringe and annoying every time he did it. The other guy doesn’t even seem to understand guillotine leagues. Over the last few episodes he has Routinely suggested to spend $50+ on very replaceable roleplaying flex type players. Really tried to give this podcast a chance and listened for weeks but it’s just bad a... more
