Unless you identify yourselves as shoveling bleep for Timmy Dunn and Farris Wilks, you will NEVER again torture pod listeners with so much manure about the Dixie Rockettes. *** Sistah Embiid chickened out for the FOURTH STRAIGHT TIME in Joker’s House.

Makes for a pretty bad podcast when they are watching and talking about videos on an audio medium.

Used to really like the show, thought it managed to cover lots of different lanes well, even as someone who finds draft stuff boring Sam made it work fine, but man this season feels like a slog, lots of stale bits and navel gazing. Bryce seems like a nice guy and he has energy but also seems like...Read full review »

So many of Sam’s pods and takes feel like he is sponging off someone else. His show ideas are so often identical to other more popular shows. And his new co-hosts all stink. The old shows were much better. I am afraid this pod needs a reset.

Sad to hear listenership goes down on draft episodes bc those are my favorite ones. You guys do a great job being realistic on dudes, being early on dudes and finding guys off the beaten path. Thank you!

Just trying to bring attention to the fact that the pod no longer updates over on the atheltic’s app, Sam. Not sure why.
Riddlesinthedark117 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/29/24
Love the show and all the insights from Sam and co. They always bring grade A-material regarding both the NBA and especially draft content. I never miss a show!

How hard is it to make an nba podcast that talks about something unique. Everyone and there grandmother are talking about the Warriors and Spurs not doing good, speculating about the Clippers. Everyone has already pushed Haliburton and Edward’s rise, Celtics dominance, Knicks meandering, and...Read full review »

“Like”, are we sure that “like” he knows anything about basketball? “Ummm”, I’m pretty sure he “like doesn’t”….
nba reviewer 12345 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/31/23
Cool podcast they talk about to every team dope. But too much cursing. Doesn’t sound good.
Brownclown via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/23
I love this podcast. Sam is great. One little thing I’ve noticed is that lately Sam has been a little aggressive with his opinions, almost shoving them in your face. He usually doesn’t do this, so I’m hoping he’s just trying to spice things up during the offseason. Thanks for all the hours of...Read full review »

Right?

Just to help u guys out in a case discovery can be requested, given, and still not be made public so ur concerns about seton hall exposing trade secrets are minimal at best not expecting the average person to know that tho so hard to knock u for it
Just another mol Eliza via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/28/23
In my opinion the podcast has slipped a bit recently. Obviously the draft analysis is very good and informative but occasionally it devolves into Sam crowing about how early he was on something (did we really need to hear about how early he texted Adam about the Nuggets promise in 2 episodes?) or...Read full review »

The only thing I would say Sam is when you’re about to say something and then say “Nvm I’ll tell you off the air.” Totally understand not being able to say it on the podcast just felt like I heard it a few times during draft season. Loving what you do!
Dameaax via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/23
One of my favorite pods. So awesome to get in-depth analysis that often focuses on positives, contrasting those who just want to point out flaws and concerns. Only critique would be maybe don’t use “high level” as an adjective so much, haha.

Sam does a great job of putting you to sleep. I listen to him every night while going to bed with my cats
Mathsketball via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/30/23
Best podcast in all of sports and especially if you are a basketball fan. NBA, College, EuroLeague it is a fantastic listen. Sam, Adam & the guests are among the best in the game.
tjzehnder via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/16/23
nah
sam is the worst kind of nerd. more unnecessary F-bombs than an 8th grade boys’ sleepover. also, nobody cares about your opinions on film and tv
FreezyPOP via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/08/22
The best pod from the land down under. *Disclaimer: I don’t listen to any other pods from down under, but I’m guessing this is the best.
StarryNight97 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/16/22
I love the discussions you guys have on the pod and especially like how they can span from NCAA to NBA. There’s some room for improvement with the production quality on the pod, though. Some audio issues, more “speaking over each other on Zoom calls” than I hear on other pods too. I really enjoy...Read full review »

We will miss him but Spins is awesome! His YouTube content is awesome and I am very happy he’s here to step in for Pennie. The show will be just as good if not better
classicaldini via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/01/22
Love the pod, Sam always does a fantastic job as a host! I’ll miss hearing Pennie, his weekly appearances were always so informative about nba prospects. With that said this pod is still a must listen for NBA fans with lots of other great guests and info on the draft and NBA moves
Gamecock Fan 1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/31/22
Sam’s analysis is comprehensive and Pennie brings an insightful former-player’s perspective and I enjoy the rapport between the two. Only complaints would be Sam’s absolutely brutal upspeak as well as his incessant cursing. I’m not a prude or anything but it always just feels sort of jarring and...Read full review »

get caitlin on the podcast more often!

Great podcast. Sometimes the audio quality is bad.
podcaddict via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/16/22
Great podcast for NBA and college hoops fans.
Kudos56 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/22
There are other podcasts that cover NBA prospects. They're great in their own ways. But they tend to get boring and deep in the weeds in a way that does not lend itself to casual listening in the car or while going for a run. Sam and frequent guest /cohost Matt Pennie make it interesting and...Read full review »

Sam and Matt are fantastic to listen to. Really know their basketball.
prunesmoothie22 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/08/22
Really good overall. Vaccine is great. Can get a bit repetitive with the draft prospects but they are so knowledgeable about them it’s still worthwhile overall. Tony Jones is dreadful to listen to, both listening to him speak, and his asinine uninformed takes (eg zions defense offsets his...Read full review »

Sam is very knowledgeable about the draft and the NBA as a whole. Highly recommend this pod. Guests are very knowledgeable also.
Gatorfan157 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/29/21
Love the show
eddycoro01 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/01/21
A lot of good stuff, the guys are really knowledgeable, but out of all the episodes I’ve listened to so far, it seems Sam has never gotten a take or prediction wrong lol. I don’t really think I can trust him as an analyst because apparently he’s never wrong lol
iskjdkkdnndd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/05/21
Sam’s the best. Great podcast.
Bonniefriel123 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/25/21
Great listen for SUPER BIG NBA Fans. Especially, if you are a big draft fan!
65Jim via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/09/21
Pretty detailed overview of basketball prospects and professionals, even if it feels a bit long and rambling at times. Likable host. If only he’d stop continually using the phrase “yeah, no”. If you agree with someone, don’t say Yeah NO. It’s a tick I can’t stop hearing now
minnehappiness via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/14/21
This is my go to podcast for basketball. Sam is an amazing analyst and love the knowledgeable guests he has on.
Ru44Mets via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/13/21
You guys have awesome chemistry. I enjoy your breakdowns of prospects, personal trials and tribulations and trending takes. Mad Props Homes!

At the end of the day... we go to sleep. 😛
jmsprtlnlsn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/01/21
One of the only podcasts I listen to. Sam has very good perspectives and great and fun guests.
apodocast via Apple Podcasts · Mexico · 07/19/21
Always listen to Sam, especially in the lead up to the NBA draft. Get the low down on the draft guys including internationals and his in depth knowledge of the NBA means his analysis is alway relevant and interesting. Keep it up Sam and hope you are enjoying your move to Australia 👍🏻
STIX1000 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/17/21
Started listening at the beginning of the 2020-21 NBA Draft Cycle and immediately became obsessed with draft process. Extremely insightful and informative. Great way to keep up with the draft stocks of NBA prospects throughout the entire calendar year. Never unfairly slanders or criticizes...Read full review »

Everytime I see that a new episode has come out, I know my day at work will be less boring. Keep up the great work guys!
Benoudissou via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 06/30/21
Been listening a long time to Sam and I’ve always appreciated how he talks about basketball and prospects. He has a unique perspective on how the college and international game translates to the NBA and he’s able to look for specific nuanced qualities that others may gloss over.

It’s annoying that Pennie talks like he has a mouth full of spit.

Hey Sam on your last episode u put Philly-76ers on your last episode I think you meant Hawks-76ers 😂👍🏾
