  • Need a new host

    Jim and Lori are great…I hate to be harsh, because I am sure JR is a nice guy, but he isnt cut out to host a Bucks podcast, way too much nervous energy and no conciseness with his questions. If he can reign it in or this podcast can find a stronger host it could be great

    You guys are pretty good, but to compete in today's podcast world, your episodes either need to be much longer and more in depth or way more frequent.

The less you p... more

  • Rachel Nichols

    It is crazy that at the start of every game, Rachel Nichols flashes the white power symbol with her left hand, for a long time during her monologue. You can go back and check. She did it from the preseason on. She obviously does not Want to be around “those” people. It devastated my children and I when we saw it. It is awful to do to the young, full of hopes and dreams.

    It is clear she wants to do something else. Let her do that something else away from our sons and daughters.

  • Bucks podcast with JR & Jim

    Love the podcast, JR adds great energy and insight. Jim kind of rambles on going in several directions at once. Making it difficult to listen to at times.
