  • Best AZ show

    Most AZ hosts are too negative and whiny, or trying to never talk bad of AZ teams and players - resulting in fake content. Doug lands the perfect balance between providing an enjoyable and uplifting show - and telling it like it is, all the time. He doesn’t over or under react. He doesn’t get away with sheer confidence - instead, his unmatched knowledge of sports validates his opinions. He truly loves his fans, and it shows through his work ethic and honesty to us. Thanks for all you do Doug.

  • Simply the best in Arizona Sports pods

    Since finding Doug Franz Unplugged, I rarely venture looking for other Arizona sports podcasts. His coverage is very thorough and consistent. His baseball knowledge is vast and does a great job of being critical but not reactionary. The Diamondbacks get so much attention during the long season but it's very digestible from this podcast. Phoenix Suns, Arizona Cardinals, Sun Devils, Wildcats and the rest are covered here.
