  • Rebecca is perfect

    I really enjoyed listening to this podcast for the calm conversation and banter about football. Since Tayler Twellman joined the show, it’s unlistenable. I stopped listening over the summer while he guest-hosted without Rebecca Lowe, and I could only make it through an episode and a half once he joined the team. He speaks in a screaming voice and think he needs to inject controversy into the conversation. Soccer is something I enjoy and use to relax, and Taylor ruins that.

    Taylor and Theo are a fine listen with Rebecca conducting the fray. Always entertaining to hear their perspectives. Theo and Taylor show no love for the Philadelphia Union in their picks.
