We know this is a thankless job, but we appreciate you taking the time and effort it takes to keep this going . Objective,thoughtful and well done.

This podcast is obviously a labor of love—when SDFC does well, Craig, Tony and Alex are genuinely enthusiastic, and when the team struggles, you can hear the frustration underlying their constructive criticism.

Great pod on SDFC. It’s really starting to hit its stride. Look forward to every episode.

It seemed like about every 10 minutes they were inserted haphazardly right in the middle of conversations. Made the whole experience unlistenable.
Best independent podcast on the best MLS club in the West, SDFC! Fantastic analysis from hosts Alex, Tony, and Craig and a must listen for anyone else just starting this journey of following SDFC and the MLS!
