  • Ozzy is a HOFamer

    Keats is a cheeseball as usual but does a decent job …. Love the guest like I said Keats is mediocre analyst and wont be missed at the desk. Stay off the booze pal you look like a tomato.

  • Favorite Detroit Sports Podcast

    This may be the best Detroit Sports Podcast. Always loved the banter of Keats and Ozzy during games and was bummed to hear Keats was retiring. It feels like you’re getting the version of these two off-air; almost like the unedited version. Hope these two continue this podcast and it grows the audience it deserves.
