Apple Podcasts5nats_gerryUnited States5 months ago - Best DC Sports Podcast
The Commanders also have a couple of good shows, but I think Nats Chat is the best of those covering DC sports teams. Al and Mark offer a great blend of mature analysis and inside information that is unfortunately lacking in other DC team podcasts.
Apple Podcasts5I Love DemocracyUnited States6 months ago - The only Nats podcast that matters.
Al, Mark & CO. are the best! I hope this pod never ends tho I’d love to hear Al Galdi in the MASN broadcast booth one day. Update: -1 star, Patriot Supply adverts? No on 50? Really? Please know that your audience is smarter than that.
