  • Updated Review

    Unsubscribing. If you’re looking for left wing political commentary the internet offers plenty of options for you. I myself was looking for a college football pod. Where did you go Dan Wetzel, our nation turns its bored eyes to you.

  • Probably their best show

    The 06 Oct. show has to be one of their best. They took comments to heart so it wasn’t three guys talking over one another and Godfrey was able to finish his points - which are fun and entertaining. Yahoo and production should embrace the entertainment value of a podcast - we can all read the newsfeed. That’s not the purpose of a podcast, at least with 3 individuals so entrenched in the sport we love.

  • Please, for the love of God…

    …stop talking over yourselves. Each of you has valuable knowledge and perspective, but respect your audience — and each other — enough to pause & take turns speaking.

    The other CFB podcast I subscribe to, “The Audible,” has three co-hosts is the gold standard in this regard.

    Ross is the least offensive, but Steven & Andy seem to delight in not yielding, and will talk over each other for 10-15 seconds at a time.

    It’s selfish and rude.
