  • Great 🏀 Pod

    I was looking for a hoops pod about 4 years years ago as I’d struggled to find one I liked for a while, I randomly found this and have been a listener ever since. Episodes are a nice length and mix in fun analysis from Justin and Kevin with a combination of humour, good insight and the occasional dose of Sixer homer chat. Pop culture and other sport chat/references comes in too which is a plus for me! Keep up the good work and here's hoping Simmons is finally traded soon!

    All the best, Will in ... more
