  • Needs work

    Imagine taking Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s concepts in Antifragile, and applying it to fantasy football. That was the origin of Zero RB, and that was the brilliance of Shawn Siegele. Shawn continues to have bold takes and player stands to this day. His partner, Ben Gretch, while earnest and knowledgeable, sometimes makes this podcast hard to listen to.

  • Top tier podcast

    Such great content. Ben and Shawn’s analysis has made me shift the way I look at fantasy football the last couple years… and it’s really paid off. Can’t wait for them to start recording more often as season gets closer, but offseason content is great as well. Especially enjoy the strategy/game theory discussion.

    Love the pod but gotta find a way to make it more 50/50 and avoid the BG 10 min monologues

  • Content I’d rather read than listen to

    Why do these guys keep pronouncing Jeanty as “Jean-ty”? Everyone else seems to say his name as “Jen-ty”. Also, does Shawn Siegele have some sort of speech impediment? He pauses…so frequently…but in such a…strange…way that’s it’s…incredibly distracting!
