  • Love the info, production not so much

    Can the NY Post give them a few bucks for legitimate microphones? Mollie and Brooksie would benefit greatly from the upgrade. Always love the information. Boyle was such a great addition to the pod and also has the best sound quality. The advertising drop in’s are wildly thrown in. Maybe some organized breaks in segments would help give add breaks a more natural feel. Last but not least; Mollie, I beg you…the vocal fry is real. Not every thought needs to trail off into fry land.

  • Bad to worse

    This podcast has steadily declined over the years. Mollie reports and talks like she is a teenager working for her high school newspaper and Larry is the master of the obvious. Brian Boyle adds value as a former player and should have a bigger role! One could argue that the podcast was better when they had regular guests (former players and others from the hockey world) and Ron Duguay was the host!
