  • Favorite of a displaced Astro fan

    As an upper Midwest Astro fan I appreciate the insights and interviews the podcast provides. My family and I watch all of the games through MLB.tv but this helps fill in what we’re missing by being out of market. Thank you and keep up the great pre-game interviews.

  • Too little too late

    Replay of the radio show and always, always substantially delayed. As I write this review I’m listening to a Sunday game PREVIEW on a Tuesday morning. I suppose some interviews are still ok with a delay, but for the most part the extremely slow updates make this podcast mostly useless for fans.
