  • Jesse Temple is the best

    Can’t believe the Athletic is pushing out arguably the best beat sportswriter in the country - Jesse Temple. Lame. No one has more passion for their coverage and it shows. He always does his homework. Jesse finds a way to tell it like it is but with grace and welcome insight. Major boneheaded move by the Athletic and makes me second guess them. Will likely not renew my subscription because of them pushing him out. Too bad,the Athletic was such a good idea at the start. Love Jesse's work here on ... more

  • Best Badgers Pod

    Jesse and Zach are excellent. Jesse clearly has great sources within the UW football program and is an outstanding storyteller. Zach is super insightful and has really sharp observations about the team that you don’t get anywhere else. Just a fun listen and I always learn something new.
