    Really enjoy listening to the guys. Most media these days is hot take nonsense. This is well though out, analytically backed, opinions on the game. Praises when earned, scolds when deserved. Great pod with a great format.

  • Greatest Show on Earth

    This is #1 Philly Sports podcast out there, talk about All Star line up, Ray S, Chuck the God Father and Chad the Wiz. These guys are brilliant, the old school baseball mentality that Chuck brings to show combined with the Extreme detail and knowledge that Chad has on all things sports and add the enthusiasm of Ray just makes this podcast one of the best sources for Philly sports that I’ve heard in a long time. Forget about all the other podcasts out there they can’t even compete. Keep it up guy... more

  • The best educational sports show

    I think this show is important to sports. They mention things that I’ve never heard mentioned with sports. MLB Network needs your take. I love the rants they do because as the listener there is so much excitement to what each of them are going to rant about. All of four of them have distinct voices which makes the listening experience even better. Ray, coach, Whiz , and The Godfather all sound different so that makes things so much more fun to listen to.

    Keep up the great work!
