  • Well Worthwhile

    My husband and I listen during dinner. He’s not a big sports fan guy but I am a sports fan lady. I really enjoy listening to a female prospective of sports and now so does he and it gives us something to discuss rather than the dismissal daily news. Puts smiles on our faces.

  • Love a Different Sports Perspective

    I am a huge sports fan generally but this podcast brings a different and very much needed female perspective to all the action. I enjoy the focus on female sports and athletes and the interweaving of pop culture with all the current sports news. I knock off one star because sometimes the information can be a little inaccurate or the cohosts just don’t know all the rules of what they are discussing.
