  • Difficult to listen to

    This used to be a decent pod/show, but it seems as if SKC broadcasting is at a crossroads. Kempin is bad. Aerni is too green. The interviews are the saving grace, but even those are very generic. Callum was the best, Bukaty grew into the role and was solid by the end of his tenure, Aly was so-so, but this season is just bad. Fans deserve better

  • So meh

    They fail to present and cover anything that goes against the clubs message.

    When there is controversy in matches they gloss over or simply ignore it.

    If all you want is sunshine and rainbows, stop here.

Initially, I was not a cat person and disliked them, but after I got my girlfriend a cat, I found them to be sweet. I wanted my own cat and ended up adopting Hank from a shelter.
