Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 3.7k ratings
  • Repeat nonsense

    This pod used to be tolerable, but it’s turned into multiple shows a day regurgitating the same hypothetical content over and over, just different hosts. Mock drafts have become intolerable and any episode that starts with TTP is an automatic delete. Finally tired of deleting episodes, so unsubscribe it shall be. One episode per day is plenty, especially in the off season. Peace out.

  • Boycott Betting Sponsors

    Lets normalize boycotting podcasts that take money from gambling entities which exploit addicts. Used to love Judd, Mackey and Declan but can’t support people who promote something that notoriously destroys lives. Shame on you guys, where is your moral compass?
