  • Niners fan? Take a listen!

    Great shows, KP and Rob know their stuff. Always pertinent and insightful commentary, adding value for a Niners fan - as opposed to adding noise (too many click-baiters out there. These guys aren’t that). Give it a chance, take a listen.

  • Great show, listen to every episode!

    Great show Rob, look forward to your level headed insight and thoughts!! Keep the great content coming and keep being the most level headed Niners podcaster there is lol.

Tip my hat to Salah and that group. Offense wasn’t bad, Purdy definitely wasn’t on his A game, but I don’t put it all on him, it was some grea... more

  • Fair and open minded

    Rob does a good job of sharing factional information and giving highly educated opinions. A good show where the host doesn’t strive to be contrarian but really looks to call balls and strikes. Always a good listen for someone like me who listens to a lot of different Niners content creators on the regular.
