  • A Fluid Transition

    I listened to the Podcast of Champions when they were covering the now defunct PAC 12. Rest in peace, Larry Scott, Wazzu and the Beavs.

    I prevaricated and hesitated to renew my listening-ship once UCLA and SC entered the BIG 10, as I was not a fan of UCLA’s participation in throwing a Molotov cocktail into the nuclear bomb SC had already dispensed on the decaying corpse of the PAC 12.

    Still, I enjoy listening to Ryan and Dave. As a reader of Bruin Report Online, I have a natural affinity for... more

    Dear Jeff and NJ (not Jeff)

    I think your mediocrity has sunk to a different level. What the heck makes you think that the UCLA fan base parentheses the dozens that still exist after the last Ice Age and winning season rolled into one and parentheses didn’t use their non-Nico NIL dollars to stack the Mizzu State roster… Didn’t that roster out perform UCLA‘s?

    Next up, if you guys are trading places with a coach, then Ryan, shouldn’t you have chosen Cignetti, after all, you know how it goes: “he ... more

  • What am I even doing here?

    Ryan and Dave,

    As one of the few female fans of this show I have to be honest and say I'm not really sure how I ended up here. I think it has something to do with the fact that as a graduate of a non PAC12 school I married into a huge UCLA family and this podcast is probably the only thing that can make following UCLA football for the last five years even somewhat enjoyable.

    My favorite thing about this podcast is how despite openly admitting to doing the least amount of preparation possible ... more

  • Simply Thank You

    I'm at the airport waiting for my flight. I received a YouTube notification about your show, and I'm listening to the show live as I write this. The Sinead O'Connor voice male singer wasn't any good, but it was quite entertaining and strange all at the same time. Fits perfectly with the show. I’ve wanted to write this review for a while now. I started listening to your YouTube channel and now occasionally catch episodes here when I miss them on YouTube.

    I’m originally from Ohio (now in Dallas) ... more
