Stripling segment makes this podcast - but know your audience…
Great podcast overall and have been a subscriber for a long time now… but the best part, by far, are the regular weekly segments with Ross Stripling, who I can only imagine is treating this as a long-form interview for a future in management or broadcasting as he shares his insights and is incredibly eloquent and engaging in his style. That said, my humble suggestion would be to either move the weekly recap to the end of the episode or at least mention what time it ends for people who want to skip ahead… I’d imagine that most people listening are already pretty hardcore fans, so why do we need a recap on games we ourselves were watching? Another idea would be to combine the weekly recap with the Ross Stripling segment to have him sprinkle his insights through the week that was by taking us behind curtain on what may not have been obvious to those of us watching on TV… maybe that look back with Ross could be called the weekly “Trip with Strip”? Overall, great stuff here and well worth the regular listen, would just love to see you really lean into the Stripling partnership and recognize that a meandering reliving of games listeners already saw might not be the most engaging way to start each episode. Will upgrade this to a 5-star review if I hear you mention this review and try the ‘Trip with Strip’ concept in an upcoming episode. :)

Great guests (from on and off the field) to give listeners behind the scenes insight into the game that we don’t get to see behind the scenes. I look...Read full review »
