A lot of good content but for the love of god, Zack Harper’s banter is tedious, annoying, and adds no value to my interest in basketball.

The fans are clamoring “bring back that weird Wizards guy!” At this point for a Wizards fan, the best thing that could happen to us is for Josh Robbins (that weird wizards guy) and Fred Katz (the old weird wizards guy) to make a joint appearance on the Slam and Jam. Our entire roster of crummy...Read full review »

I’ve listened various NBA podcasts. Daily Ding was favourite. Sadly I had to look for alternatives, gladly I found Slam-N-Jam (what a FOUND it was, Andrew!) Not looking forward to Nets - saw them against Grizzlies in NY - quality wise it was low budget x rated movie). My fav part of pod - TRIVIA!...Read full review »

Big fan of the Slam and Jam, less so others in the feed. Changing my review to 5 stars to praise Andrew and Alex for being the second best NBA podcast out there, with a huge gap between them and 3rd, AND to say that I too have long been hoping you’ll bring back the “weird” Wizards dude - he’s a...Read full review »

But I listen anyway because of several factors: The dulcet sounds of Alex Speers narration- you should read audio books. Even when I know you’re going to say, “that is incorrect,” I’m still a little surprised. The self-effacing nature of Andrew Shlecht- you clearly know a lot but your humility...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to Andrew and Alex for a while a couple of years. I enjoy their insights to the week of basketball and their interactions with the guests. But the highlight for me is the trivia game. Even though y’all make me feel old for not remembering some of the fringe guys from the NBA...Read full review »

Wemby is the runaway ROY. Chet plays with an MVP candidate and a MI candidate. This apples v oranges. Wemby will be a 20/10 guy and lead the league in blocks. Chet doesn’t rebound. Besides Chet is in his second year. Not a rookie. Be on the right side of history.

I always enjoy this podcast. The hosts don't spend excess amounts of time talking about the Lakers, Lebron. the Warriers, Steph, Phoenix, KD, etc. like some podcasts do. Good to hear more about the smaller market teams, I always enjoy the quiz, even though I rarely know many answers. Keep it upRead full review »

I enjoy the Athletic NBA Show’s Friday entry, slam n jam. Especially the weekly review of games played in the past week. I hope you will keep the “ week that was” bit rolling through the playoffs. Great work Alex and Andrew.

You won’t find much insight here, though it’s entertainment enough to have in the background when they can stay on the topic of basketball. If you’re looking for info about other teams that aren’t yours I’d stay away, they’re analysis is kiddie pool shallow. You won’t hear about the plays teams...Read full review »

I appreciate all the athletic’s nba coverage, but hoping to get this review read and draw attention to the fact that Sam Vecenie’s podcast doesn’t get updated in the Athletic app. It occasionally gets updated in a big backlog tranche, then months will pass before it updates again. Presently...Read full review »

I listen to this show every week and generally like it. The decision Alex Speers and Andrew Schlecht made on reporting the tragic passing of Dejan Milojevic in the middle of the rest of the “what happened in the NBA this week” was tasteless and insensitive. A man died, and you made the CONSCIOUS...Read full review »

Well Andrew, it all started a few years ago while I was remodeling my bathroom. In true NBA podcast sicko fashion, I had already listened to the other 11 shows I had downloaded that week. Then on came the Saturday Slam
Lance from WI via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/17/24
S&J is an incredible mix of NBA recap, analysis on stat points on an interesting player or team, and just straight entertainment with great guests (and who could not love Andrew vs The Beat!). You are sure to get a healthy dose of anything you’re looking for from an NBA show. Overall great...Read full review »

The content is generally great, but a bunch is lost because the episodes skip and jump constantly. Other podcasts do not have these glitches and failures. Fix it.

Great podcast, love listening to it, can’t wait for the next episode each week.

Love the slam N Jam. Best NBA content out there. Merry Christmas.

I want to take a second to give a shoutout to the amazing hosts. Alex - as a gameshow host you are fantastic, every week you are consistently bringing the swagger of a young Mike O’Malley. The amount of time and effort you put into segments like “which team was a preseason surprise good team...Read full review »

I unfollowed the show when they started mocking “everyday” workers criticizing NBA players who take rest days. Those everyday workers, at a minimum, work 40 hours a week, five days a week, while making likely under $100,000 annually. A decent amount of NBA players will make more in their entire...Read full review »

Why would an org loaded with quality writers consistently choose this trio? They are awful. There are folks you have on that are so much better.
lazknickfan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/07/23
I look forward to this podcast each weekend. Alex’s bowel movement description of the Pistons v Wizards game was not only hilarious but completely apt. My only criticism is Andrew’s lack of appreciation of the Miami Heat organization & their Heat Culture haha, and what they have accomplished...Read full review »

Ooga booga, ooga ooga booga, booga. You better read this all out loud! On a serious note this is my favorite show in all of the basketball podcast stratosphere.

I’ve listened to this feed for a long time and generally enjoy it but David Aldridge giving sexual predator Karl Malone a platform to cry about people not liking him killed it for me.

All the pods are great but slam n jam gets a 6 star rating
RedSoxReibert via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/27/23
Slam and Jam in particular is a great show. I’ve always been a fan of Andrew and Alex but the quality, depth and fun generated by their show is an incredible addition to the pods here. Thanks to them for all the blood, sweat and tears! Happy Thanksgiving!
OKMeyer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/25/23
Think they started running more ads. Hard to listen to, better NBA shows out there
Jasonwc97 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/22/23
I’ve enjoyed the (Saturday) Slam and Jam since inception and look forward to it every week! So much so that I listened to the most recent episode while floating in the Caribbean Sea. Always a good time and love the content!

Why bother having guest on if your not gonna let them speak? Not interested anymore of these guys.
Zimn0016 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/18/23
The Saturday pod has earned its five stars (and I’m stingy). One of the few pods in which the hosts (including weekly guests) clearly watch basketball! If that sounds like damning with faint praise, it isn’t. So much NBA coverage is just an echo chamber and I don’t have time/interest to hear from...Read full review »

The Slam and Jam alone is worth clicking the follow button. My Saturdays begin with a cup of coffee, turning on the Slam and Jam and listening while I make breakfast for my family. Andrew and Alex recap the week and analyze the players and teams with humour, wit, stats and interesting takes, and...Read full review »

The Slam and Jam show is almost impossible to listen to. Super boring snooze fest. The hosts of that show are super boring
RickyRozay13 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/06/23
“Senior NBA Writer” Sam Amick just continues to pronounce the number 1 overall pick’s name incorrectly. I genuinely don’t understand how this is happening, how no one corrects him. There is an M at the end, Sam, not an N. Say it with me. WembanyaMa. Good Lord.

Absolutely love the addition of Josh, he is a natural. As a diehard Thunder fan I may be a tad biased, but I think he adds a nice touch!

The constant production shenanigans are a total insult to the hosts and the listeners. I'm in disbelief that no one has reined this insanity in. It's just bad. edit: always hoped they'd give me a reason to edit this review, and I'm happy to say they did! they must have gotten a...Read full review »
