  • Good host, guests hit and miss

    Michael Rand is consistently good, but some of his Strib guests are far better at writing than they are at speaking. I would put Pat Reusse and Cassidy Hettesheimer in that category.

  • Best MN sports show

    I absolutely love this podcast. Have listened religiously for about 3 years. I’m an ex pat but grew up on all the MN teams and Randball helps keep me up to date. Reusse Mondays are the best!

  • Great Show But…

    I love the Show look forward to it every day but the Poetry segment needs to go. Luckily I can click on ‘Transcript’ and avoid it while listening. Don’t get rid of Reusse, his frank and biting comments are appreciated.

  • Vikings Poetry? Really?

    Like the show generally but the Vikings Poetry segment is a total waste of time. Poetry on a sports podcast? Seriously? Stay off my yard.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Aaron Gleeman on the Twins and leaving The Athletic; Who steps up for Wolves in Game 6?
Q: What was the thought process behind leaving The Athletic and starting aarongleeman.com again?
Aaron explains that after seven years at The Athletic, he realized his passion was reporting and analyzing the Twins through his own lens, returning to his roots with a subscriber-based site to preserve his brand and audience, despite the risk.
Wolves breakdown with Dane Moore; The U.S. Open Cup and soccer democracy
Q: Next year, what are the biggest questions you're watching for Rob Dillingham and the point guard rotation?
The focus is on Rob's development on offense, especially his three-point shooting and decision-making as a potential backup point guard, while evaluating how the team integrates him with Conley and the other guards to maintain pace and spacing.
Wolves breakdown with Dane Moore; The U.S. Open Cup and soccer democracy
Q: Dane, what kind of ownership do you think Laurie and A-Rod will be as they shape the Wolves' future?
Dane suggests the ownership group has shown willingness to spend and empower the basketball side, while also signaling patience and strategic restraint at times, especially around the arena situation and long-term planning; the real test will be how they balance aggression with sustainable growth as contracts and timelines evolve.
Huge night for Wild and Wolves; Chris Hine on the Wolves' blueprint; Twins bullpen woes
Q: What did you take away from game five that could influence game six?
The discussion centers on turning a tough game around by tightening ball security, improving defensive intensity, and relying on veteran game-management to guide rotations and energy on both ends.
Wild and Wolves can both clinch at home Thursday; Big WR to visit the Vikings
Q: What makes Thursday night so unique for both teams, and who needs to step up for the Wolves and Wild?
Thursday night is unique because both the Wild and Wolves have a realistic chance to clinch at home, a rare situation; for the Wolves, leadership and rotations around key injuries must be sharper, while the Wild rely on disciplined defense and timely scoring to close out.
