“I don’t usually leave pod reviews. Was looking forward to this one and was disappointed. The guests are great, but they hardly get to talk. Loaded with the usual Simmons biases. Got to the 10th episode and couldn’t take it anymore. I know you want to show off your kid, but the intro is painful.
When you say someone is a “top 17 player of all time”, it comes off as you living in your own echo chamber and taking your opinions as fact, rather than recognizing them as opinions. Your top 17 is not THE top 17.
It’s obvious that you liked Gladwell’s audiobook-only idea and tried to turn it into a series of disconnected pods instead of putting in the time and energy to actually write a second book. Re-using old pods and reading your old articles aloud is not compelling content. Sorry to say this one is a miss for me.”
