Jackie and her team do an excellent job of painting a picture of the important events in NBA history. It would have been 5 stars but she mentioned that Hakeem was an icon with only one team…cough,cough Raptors…cough

The Ringer is my single stop for all my favorite content and this series is wonderful! My only complaints are that there is no video to go along with it and that there aren’t more of them. Great job Ringer team!

Love Bill sharing his insights and how players have impacted the game. But, need to do more! Would love an in-depth analysis of your updated pyramid!!

This is so cool
S_B_Hong via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/23/22
Tons of sound bytes by NBA legends in this pod! Jackie is an elite journalist and a good host but the pod is a lot more than just her talking the whole time. 5 stars

WOW
Very professional and thorough.
sebi23_ro via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/05/22
I typically tune out sports podcasts my fiancé plays on our car rides, but not this time. When I heard Jackie’s Icons club series, my ears perked up and I found myself getting super into the series. Great writing, wonderful clips, and an insightful host make this series binge worthy. If more...Read full review »

Great pod stories thank you Jackie
Seatown81 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/20/22
One of the best basketball narratives of all time. Amazing first hand descriptions of how generations pass the torch to new generations. What an amazing story teller and journalist. Thank you. There are some, in the comments, not understanding the greatest players in NBA history are also social...Read full review »

I literally got goose bumps at certain parts because it’s so well written. Thank you for this. The only thing I can say was missing was during Kobe and shaq tim Duncan should’ve been apart of it because of how dominant he was during that time period as well. Outside of that this was great

I love the icons series Jackie has done here. The effort put forth really shows throughout the series. My only issue is the consistent characterization of Jacob Blake as unarmed during the shooting. He was not, in fact, unarmed. The police reports and eyewitness statements both reflect that he...Read full review »

I really dislike the icons club podcast.
Willwdj via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/15/22
Take a shot every time Jackie says social justice. Compensating much old white lady?
FSUcriminole via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/15/22
Jackie’s writing, reporting, insight and interviews are amazing. Thank you for sharing a lifetime of experience with us. This podcast can only be made by someone who has a lifetime of experience in locker rooms with owner and players.

Best basketball podcast I’ve heard and not at all surprised. Jackie Mac is an MVP and master storyteller. Thanks hear episodes were fantastic and I’m sad they are wrapping up, honestly. Wish there were going to be more. Minor disappointment was not having Magic or Bird interviewed for the...Read full review »

I’m going to compare this podcast to the fast and furious series. Fast and furious was already good but when the rock joined the series it hit legendary status. Jackie MacMullan just shot this podcast to the moon. I hope this motivates Bill Simmons to comeback on this podcast.
Rockyx23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/11/22
Well done. Perfectly constructed & coordinated, crazy guest features.
SeanDon808 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/09/22
Nothing new. Everything narrated was just a rehash of yhe most popular storiea. Narrator was dull and uninteresting.
zhaoxin77 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/08/22
A well-crafted series. I feel this is important for the true ball heads to keep up on the game’s history, through a medium appropriate for mass reach. Good job by you, Jackie!
TheMicDrop via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/07/22
this is by far the best basketball content I have ever consumed. I wish Jackie Mac was my mom.
ivanahumpalots via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/06/22

Or is it Bob Ryan? Great series well done Jackie, Sean, and the team! Love seeing Jackie get a well deserved platform!!!!
Grandpa Shayn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/22
The icons podcast captures everything I love about the game of basketball. The individuals and singular moments that had game-changing effects on the future icons is something that should be celebrated and Jackie has captured this perfectly. Can we please have more series like these in the future...Read full review »

Absolutely brilliant podcast Jackie!
Jib06 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/01/22
I was really excited about this one. I love NBA/basketball history. But the constant focus by Jackie on race was pretty discouraging. Like there are so many nuggets of greatness and the possibilities of this podcast could have made it one of the best, but there is always this push to speak about...Read full review »

Ceirin83 via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 03/29/22
Thank you for these incredible stories there’s enough daily podcasts out there they give us the ins and outs of what’s going on in today’s NBA what is great storyteller you are Jacky thank you
Kicco d via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/27/22
I’m not a huge fan of the current NBA but I grew up during the Jordan and Kobe eras & I loved the idea of a behind-the-scenes look at the old guard. Jackie’s narration is great but I felt a tad lost during the episodes. While the individual stories/anecdotes presented are all fascinating and...Read full review »

Does Jackie bring her game to this series? Indubitably
TW22a via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/22/22
Jackie the legend taking about legends is the best thing on my pod list this year so far. I look forward to episode and am sad when they’re over.
just looking for a good pod via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/22/22
From Bill Simmons pyramid of players, to Jackie MacMullan’s masterclass in journalism with the new ‘Icon Club’ series, this podcast enlightens you and helped me become a better NBA fan. History can get lost in the noise and we forget or didn’t really know how things were in previous eras of the...Read full review »

One of my favorite podcasts ever. It’s so amazing that we get to hear all this for free
Mjreview via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/19/22
Really looking forward to this one. Not enough people talk about Bill Russel and not just his impact on modern athletes but what he and a lot of others went through in the 60s(which is creepily not that long ago, which is nuts) my fiancé is a teacher and once did a subject on racism in sports and...Read full review »

Loved the first episode of the icons club! Don’t hear enough from the former greats. Can’t wait for the next episodes! Also loved listening to the Book of Basketball episodes.
