  • Good info, hard listen

    Parker is great and actually focused on delivering a good podcast. Brandon is constantly distracted, not paying attention, repeating what Parker has already said, or talking about his screwup, prolonging it even further. Needs to put the phone and chat aside and focus.

  • Good dynamic & recruiting narrative

    Been listening for a couple years. Drumm and Thune have pretty good chemistry that keeps me coming back. Took me awhile to warm up to Drumm but now I like the goofiness. This podcast excels at the recruiting info/stories, which I like.

    Does it ever get old having to correct Brandon’s dumb takes and mistakes?

  • Worse OU Podcast

    After listening I see why this is considered the worse of all the OU podcast. Both host obviously think they are above everyone else. The egos. LOL

  • Nonsense

    These two are wanna be journalists but in reality are just message board warriors who claim they are insiders but are really just losers who will say anything and do anything to make a buck. They think they are TxAgs which is a problem in itself and can’t handle ANYTHING that is not glowing feedback. Just the worst parts of our fanbase.
