  • Shame on WFAN…

    Was a massive carton fan growing up w morning show. Since he’s came back he cow tails to the Eskin school of thought and now just talks nonsense. Funny and good when about the Mets but his arrogant “I know more and better than anyone” schitck is honestly unlistenable and pathetic. CMac been an awful sidekick just letting cartons ego walk all over him. Eat some humble pie. WFAN has sucked for years and is only getting worse. Can’t listen to nonsensical biases for 4 hrs. Muted until further notice... more

  • Awesome show but…

    Can we leave the last stop off the full show podcast? It’s brutal. The show is great otherwise. Chris makes me miss Evan. He needs to go back to overnights.
