    I like the host a lot and would listen to this show more often but the Audio is so poor (quiet) β€” especially with the Guests.

  • Great listen

    I listen to a lot of these podcasts and Joe is my favorite. He brings a level headed, common sense view of the game and life that hits home with me. Keep up the good work. And maybe think about doing a few shows a year solo. I think you could do well at it.
