  • Excellent job helping me relive my childhood memories!

    I have been listening to this podcast nonstop for about a little over a month. It is fantastic! I love the format that Tim and Steve use. I think they cover just about every possible angle and every possible memory that you could from all the different sportsthat were in Pittsburgh. Including championships by the Pittsburgh triangles and the Pittsburgh basketball team. This is truly a Pittsburgh treasure and I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I do!

  • head injury-like speech impediment MAGAt with an astounding lack of historical knowledge

    Steve Wertz, the one with the trembling uptalk that adds several quivering syllables to the end of the last word of each sentence turning it into a shakily delivered question, is MAGA. No thanks. He also displays a truly embarrassing grasp of sports history in every episode. Which is truly bizarre given the topic of the podcast.
