  • Leftist Drivel

    Leftist leaning garbage. Likable hosts but their constant partisan political orientation nonsense detracts from enjoying their exploits. Listened to my last show, good luck, good health and good fortune L & A.

  • Don’t Knock It Until You’ve Tried It

    12/2025 Update: TBTL is better than ever! With all due respect to other listeners, the baseball talk is not a big deal; in fact, I really feed off of their enthusiasm and the entire emotional journey. Forever rooting for the business boys!! ~C ———-Give TBTL a whirl! It will feel like you’re not in on the inside jokes, but that feeling goes away quickly. It’s the podcast that’s there for you when you just need to unwind and chuckle a little. It’s a friend that’s there for you, but is okay with wh... more

  • No longer worth it

    The embarrassingly uniformed politics and baseball talk have drowned out the occasional moments of magic the show undoubtedly provides. Check out one of Andrew’s other offerings without the deeply unlikable and hypocritical Luke.

  • #1 in my Top 14 Podcasts

    Past Seattle radio talk show hosts bro-ing it up on a daily one hour podcast. Both 40 something white males, and very aware of it. I’ve been a fan since 2008. They have “tens” of listeners. Luke Burbank has my heart because he has the same unhealthy obsession with his weight and shame eating and constant dieting as I do. Andrew Walsh is brilliant and funny, he just doesn’t really believe it.

    2025/10 - Update. All baseball talk all the time? It’s been a pretty great run, but it might be time for... more

  • No longer enjoyable

    Don’t waste your time.

    I listened for many years but no longer have patience for them. Luke is an obnoxious man child and Andrew has inexplicably not gained any broadcasting skills while doing thousands of shows. In fact, he is getting worse and his pathetic self deprecating personality just hides an unearned arrogance. I used to like it as easy listening background noise but it has become unlistenable.
