  • Fantastic content guys!

    I was born and raised in Detroit and have been a lifelong, suffering Lions fan. I now live in Pittsburgh and consume Lions podcasts all week, every time I walk my dog. There are good Lions podcasts and bad ones, but yours is one of the best and one of my absolute favorites! I can’t tell you how happy it makes me when I open the Apple Podcasts app and see that I have a fresh new episode of Talking Grit waiting for me to listen to. The crossover/interview shows are my favorite. I wasn’t the hugest... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Saints Insider: Erin Summers on What to Expect in the Week 1 Clash
Q: What did Erin Summers identify as the biggest offseason upgrade for the Saints' offense this year?
She pointed to bolstering the run game, adding a new back in Travis Achan and an improved offensive line with David Edwards, as well as increased weapons around Tyler Shuck to diversify the attack.
Fallout, Stock Risers & Who’s Under the Radar featuring Ash Soden
Q: Do you think our backup QB situation is ready if Goff goes down?
The hosts and Ash express caution, highlighting Altmeier's poise and Dobbs' limited preparation, with a sense that Altmeier shows potential as a competent backup but the overall depth remains uncertain.
Lions Position Battles & Preseason Game Preview w/ Morgan Cannon
Q: Should Jared Goff have played in the second preseason game to build timing with the new offense?
The consensus is mixed; some argue a series or two could help with cadence and communication, while others believe preserving the starting unit is safer given center uncertainty and overall roster health.
Reisman Returns: Lions Camp Pulse Check
Q: Does the Bridgewater retirement and the Dobbs signing increase the chance of Altmeyer making the team?
Yes, the veteran additions give Altmeyer more time to develop and a clearer pathway to a roster spot, though Dobbs remains the favorite for the backup role, Altmeyer could push for snaps if preseason performance impresses.
Reisman Returns: Lions Camp Pulse Check
Q: Which position has surprised you the most in terms of competition?
The linebacker group has been the most surprising, with a crowded room featuring Devin White, Malcolm, DeMone Clark, and others, creating a lot of competition and complicating who ends up as the starter or primary backup.
