  • Need more Jason

    This is a tough review to write. I love the intersection of sports and faith. This used to be a must listen to for me when it was Jason as the primary voice leading the podcast. Unfortunately, I struggle listening anymore with Matt doing most of the interviews. Again, I feel horrible but it’s a tough listen with Matt being the main voice.
