    Very happy Hamm is here. Now I can listen. Matt was a bit too Kings apologetic.

  • Matt’s the glue guy

    One of the best Kings podcasts for sure. Matt’s consistent energy and enthusiasm is always appreciated in a sadly disfuncional Kings reality. Regardless of whether you agree with his takes, just the fact that he does his job day after day providing strong content with passion and humor is very impressive. His voice is a vital part of the King’s community and should not be taken for granted. Rock on Matt 👍👍
