  • Good listen

    Let me tell you something about the Banner Baseball Boyz: they shop at Marshall’s, which is to say they know a lot about good deals. And a free podcast that regularly dives deep into the happenings of the Baltimore Orioles? Buddy, that’s a heck of a deal.

  • Very enjoyable show

    This is one of my “go to” Orioles related podcasts that I listen to. It’s reasonable, light, and to a certain extent mirrors the rhythm and nuances of the baseball season with good interplay amongst the guests, who are knowledgeable journalists in an era journalism isn’t what it once was.

  • Keep up the great coverage!

    I continued to love this show and you guys do a great job. Quick question, is Pete Alonso a huge bust? His bat is slow and appears unable to hit a fastball anymore.

  • Best Orioles show out there

    I look forward to this show and its insights all week. Listening to Paul and Jon feels like talking ball with your buddies over a few beers on a Friday night, albeit with much more educated and level-headed takes and perspectives than you’re sure to hear from the average fan on the street. Helps me stay informed, grounded, and excited about the O’s amidst a long, whirlwind season and a chorus of opinions and diagnoses. Keep up the great work guys!
