  • Frustrating.

    Information is good, the opinions are ok, but the host is frustrating to listen to.

  • Focus of host

    Love the Wildcats content but the host is hard to listen to at times. The repeats of the same sentance structures (not only…j and the pauses and repeating himself with uh and ums is painful.

    I would recommend the host start to edit the podcasts for when he loses his train of thought.
