Like your favorite running joke, his internet won’t work, or he forgets his sponsors, or he loses his voice, or he tries to do complex math live with no calculator. And YET, it might just be my favorite gamecock podcast. It’s bite sized, it’s got bold takes, strong info, and it’s fun as heck. Just like a bad ex, I just can’t quit you Chris. Keep... more
