  • Brent Gunning has to go

    Ben is amazing. I only listen to the show when Brent is off as I find him overwhelming and agitating.

    Please replace Brent with Sam McKee or another host and I will listen regularly.

  • Oh woe!

    Hopefully all the telecoms are giving y’all monetary incentives - cos that’s what the T Dot is aaaall about - for all the weeping and wailing about Leafs ’25 ‘lack of success’. It’s farce masquerading as media hype, is what it is. Discuss.
