- Caleb & MJ
Colin no one in Chicago thinks Caleb is Jordan! Stop it!!!! Also, look through your history on the show you said Jordan on the wizards was still the best player on the floor when they Portland….now you said it was ugly! The second meeting they beat Portland and MJ went for 25 pts, 5 boards, & 7 assists. I think I like ugly!!! Stay consistent & true. We have enough people that lie and make up stories.

I don’t always agree, but love listening to Colin’s thoughts. He’s fun to listen to and thinks about things from a unique perspective.
I’m reviewing this on 9/4/26, and I think Danny Parkins has been Colin’s best substitute I’ve heard. Bring him back, Colin!
Apple Podcasts5BestballknowerUnited Statesa month ago - Like the Show, Not a Fan of MacIntyre
May not agree with everything Cowherd says, but I do appreciate the way he presents his arguments. He always puts a good narrative on things and is willing to change his opinion when the data changes. Can’t give this show five stars though because the sidekick, MacIntyre, is obnoxious. Jason holds onto his opinions like a stubborn politician, and I just can’t understand it. Always listen when Colin is in, avoid the show when he’s out.
Apple Podcasts4PoliticalRevolutionUnited Statesa month ago - Grouping shows
I hate the feature that forces you to listen to the junk Colin keeps adding to his network. I want to only download the shows I want. Not the other garbage host. Him and middlekauf are the only quality host. Change the way you push shows to us so we have choice of what we download. I know you think it’s helping your other shows get exposure, but what it will really do is force people to stop listening to you all together.

Collins media empire is unmatched. You can definitely find something you love and something that sucks on this feed. But, it’s addicting and it’s high quality.
