“I’ve been curling for about three or four years now and I love it.
It’s such a friendly competition and it’s such a unique game. It’s so fun!!!
My family also loves to curl and we play family bonspiels together.
Even when I wasn’t curling when I was a kid; watching curling especially the brier...”Read full review »

“Apart from knowing Scotland invented Curling and are obviously the best in the world, I know very little about curling. It’s a wonderful podcast and all I can say curling needs far more scandals.”

“A great and very professional job covering such an interesting scandal. I was a curler for about ten years in New Hampshire, USA and knew nothing of this taking place. To be fair, I wasn’t watching much broadcast curling other than the Olympics. You made me miss the great parts of being part of a...”Read full review »

“As someone who is not interested in sports even a little bit, I can’t believe how quickly I was hooked by this series. John Cullen is a great host, and the slick production value keeps the podcast from getting dry or losing your attention.”

“Who knew I could have been so interested in such a pod? As a golfer myself I found the history of curling to be similar, both started in Scotland, albeit hundred’s of years difference. The story of Broomgate is awesome! The production was top notch, and just plain a fun listen.”

“Being an American, my only exposure to curling is on TV every four years during the Olympics, and I find it oddly fascinating.
This story might just be the most Canadian thing I’ve ever encountered…and I mean that in a good way. That the athletes and equipment manufacturers put their heads...”Read full review »

“This was a great podcast. I decided to give it a shot even though I knew nothing about curling and am glad I did. The episodes weren’t to long and were entertaining and easy to understand. The whole show wasn’t too long either. Great show”

“How embarrassing for a “competitive sport” to not have equipment standards. The “gentlemen” running the game were just naive and stupid. The stones had weight standards - why not the brooms? Dah.”

“Entertaining and interesting, to be sure. But one of the (many) appeals of curling is the fantastic gender balance - Canadian women regularly crush in curling. But they apparently had no involvement in or even opinion about this drama (apart from occasionally passing along thoughts as wives of...”Read full review »

“It was not illuminated that Broomgate e.g. (which has been a good listen) requires a subscription after listening for free to the first four of five episodes. Then it just ends after four, have to go look out to again only to find the final episode is subscriber only. Nope, why not tell me before...”Read full review »

“I found Broomgate right when I needed it... my normal go-to true crime and politics podcasts were grinding me down, but not to the point of turning to total positivity. As an American, I actually learned about a sport that I've known of, but knew nothing about for years. The interviews and...”Read full review »

Lots has been said about juiced baseballs, the NFL’s deflategate and swimming’s super suits, but John Cullen’s Broomgate is the first definitive look at a time when a new...”Read full review »
