  • Topical and Thoughtful

    I came for Rachel, I stayed for Van. Both are incredible podcasters who are willing to set down their egos but not their morals. I love listening to them work through complex topics with respect for one another even when they disagree. The range this podcast has is unmatched.

  • Jeff Teague

    She has a bullseye on her back as if LaVar Ball is her Pop’s. They’re picking her up 94 ft. and trying to slap the (hardwood) floor. Playing the type of D.

  • Giving family a platform episode

    Appreciate and loved that Van allowed his cousin to come onto the Podcast and give his side of the story. Rachel and Van are two podcasters that can really conduct a solid interview because they listened, asked follow up questions, made sure what they were hearing was clear and concise. Van making sure his cousin took some accountability on his part because a lot of this sounds sad and trying to uphold “street code”. We only get one life and there’s no way I’m going to uphold a street code that ... more
