  • Fantastic UCLA podcast!

    Having a former UCLA basketball player providing informed insight on both men’s and women’s basketball was most definitely needed in the UCLA podcast space (+ the east coast bias is real)! Outstanding beginning to Word Around Westwood, I look forward to many more episodes with Kris Johnson and the football crew in this new Chesney era!! AAAA++++
