4.5 out of 5 stars from 88 ratings
  • Good Stuff

    Love the back and forth. Their temperament and sensibility fits perfectly with baseball. They seem to truly enjoy the Dodgers as pastime in the best possible way.

    Only thing is the commercials. It disrupts the flow. If they can figure that out it’s a five stars for me.

    Listening to two people try and answer random trivia might be the worst content on any podcast.

  • OK show. Better dodger podcasts available

    It’s an ok show. Eric is informative at times but the episodes are made available a few days after they record making a lot of their episodes old news. My biggest criticism is that almost half their shows are random trivia questions that are extremely boring and wasteful. Maybe that’s a good thing since i just listen to half the episodes and skip the rest when they bring out the trivia questions that nobody cares about. Sorry guys but u need to ditch the pointless trivia and offer up more dodger... more
