Love the podcast, it’s sports related but not too sports heavy with facts and stats. Love the dynamic between everyone on the pod and the banter is great. I listen to every episode and get to feel like I’m hanging out with Hester and Flynn, and the gang.
As a NYer who lives and dies by LSU football & would be in trenches without hesitation for Jake, Flynn, T-Bob (fallen soldier) and Alondra (ball knower) OTB keeps me up to date while still providing entertainment, great music (shoutout Alondra) as well as fun segments & incredible interviews…couldn’t live without y’all & appreciate yas more than ya know! #CTEOTB #GeauxTigahs #OTBTrenchesGang 🐅💪🏼🙌🏼⚜️🗽
As an LSU fan, I was interested in Hester and Flynn’s sports takes… but 20 minutes into the episode I had to turn it off… it was just 20 minutes of boring conversation. I don’t think many people listen to sports podcasts to hear about Costco’s deals on Halloween decorations.
I love T Bob and Jacob together. Great chemistry and great content.
Please fix the audio. Your levels are very low and the ad breaks are very high and jarring.
The wrong podcast gets uploaded very often.
