I found this podcast a few months ago because I love college football. And I love the insight. It’s the best and I’d listen to all episodes but they have put on a subscription plan. They took on the model of financial assistance - “pay me for our newsletter” … and I get it. I do. My thing is, I’d love to see them grow before they’re confident enough to start the subscriptions. I’ve seen this show. But good luck. And I mean that.
