  • Not for me sadly

    I absolutely love Fish, but this is not what I had hoped for. I was hoping for more of Fish podcast but on these specific sports. I don’t enjoy the interviews with the athletes or them trying the sports. Doesn’t make good audio in my opinion. Never mind, at least I’ve still got the other podcast to listen to.
