Fantastic pod for any Friar fans. Must listen
Billy is a true class act and is in his own category when it comes to Friar fanatics. It’s truly amazing the guests he has on the show.
Billy is a salt of the earth guy who knows the game, PC hoops and the Big East conference inside and out. This is a must listen for all Friar Town.
Billy does a fantastic job both in finding amazing guests from all corners of Friartown, as well as bringing their stories to life. Each and every episode has been a joy to listen to and learn more about someone’s individual story who was a part of the program. Keep up the great work!
Billy is a natural talker and you can tell how at ease he makes his guests. The conversations never feel awkward or forced and it’s always interesting content from his amazing guests. An interview is only as good as the interviewer and Billy shows he is going to rise to meet that mark! Highly recommend.
