  • Used to be Great

    Listening to 8 Buckets and for 95% of the teams Femi has said “they have a great home field advantage”. He has no clue how to rate NFL teams or what he’s doing whatsoever. They are also just comparing team’s win totals to determine the point spread which is a moronic way to come up with a spread

  • Too much solo time

    This was my favorite show when it was Nick and Ken. I don’t dislike Femi, but what I dislike is all the solo segments. The best part of co-hosted shows is hearing different opinions and actual debate on a topic.

    I don’t need an hour of Femi sharing his take, followed by segments of Nick doing the same. I don’t have time for that. Especially when they both sometimes have such different opinions on something.

    And why isn’t Femi allowed to talk at 6pm? Especially when his opinion is different tha... more

  • Going Downhill Fast

    What a shame this show used to be awesome. Losing Ken was a massive downgrade and now the show is turning into a complete joke, 4 hours filled with repeated segments over and over and over again, ITS PAINFUL!

  • Meh

    Femi is ok. I can’t do Kostos any more. Ken kept Nick in check. I can’t take the schtick any more. The faux outrage and fake excitement is just too much. It belongs on New York talk radio. Some interesting guests appear from time to time. The show isn’t for me anymore.
