Reviews

4.3 out of 5 stars from 43 ratings
  • Willard is great

    I think whiteys analysis is really good and not cliche, he supports his reasoning well. Dibs is cool but he interrupts a lot and prevents people at times from getting to interesting points

  • I'm out on 95.7 the shame

    Ray Ratto and Damon Bruce were by far my favorite radio personalities. I can't believe the station let them go, and kept the unlistenable Steiny and Guru. I'm deprogramming the station, i used to love listening, with Joe Lo & Dibs and Damon & Ratto. Now you're dead to me.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hour 3 - Should the Warriors prepare for a lottery pick?
Q: Tim, what's been your assessment of where Curry is physically and mentally for tonight's game?
Tim Roy says Curry is close to his peak physically, and with Porzingis, timing is improving even if not perfect, so he expects a strong performance.
Gui Santos on playing with Steph Curry: "Everything is easier for everybody" with him
Q: Will you take us through that pivotal play and what you were thinking as the ball came to you?
Gui described the moment when the ball came off the rebound and how a quick pivot and pass option to a guard emerged, highlighting the need to adapt on the fly and the relief when the sequence worked and the team stayed in rhythm.
Full Show -- Tuesday, April 7th
Q: What is the most likely cause of the Giants' offensive struggles according to the hosts?
They point to a combination of underperforming core players, lack of consistent hitting, and an ill-fitting roster balance, with the bullpen and defense contributing to the problem, rather than a single cause.
Full Show -- Monday, March 30th
Q: What has Tim Kurkjian observed about the Giants' lack of offense in the first three games?
Kurkjian notes that three games is a small sample, but emphasizes that the team needs to produce more on offense and that elite pitching can only carry a team so far; he also points out that early-season struggles don't necessarily predict long-term outcomes.
Casey Schmitt on Tony Vitello: "We all really love having him around"
Q: What position do you play?
I'd say a little bit of everything.
