Sportsnet owes her a huge thank you for saving the fan morning show . JD the alcoholic was sinking it . Facts - Ailish was promoted to the hottest time slot and JD Butkis was limited to an hour because he’s so annoying and too hung over to do mornings.. winner! CANT WAIT FOR THE LEAFS PREGAME...Read full review »

Ailish Forfar is fabulous. Tremendous talent at this genre. Such an endearing personality as well. Justin is a good foil but Ailish carries the show.

Good JD has his own show now but this show unlistenable without him. This is the best you can do?

Also miss basketball content with substance….Toronto is not just hockey….will continue to listen because of Ailish. Thankfully I do not listen to this live, it would be too painful.
Mayo Rap Fan via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/12/23
I’d say the wake and rake is the best part of the show. That’s pretty much the only part I can listen to. To me it feels like a hockey show. Justin just doesn’t have enough knowledge on basketball. Fans will mention a team or player and he’ll openly admit not knowing. I only listen during the...Read full review »

Without JD and Blake, raptors talk is painful. I feel bad saying that.
Bronte's Dad via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/23/22
3 stars all for alish, she is amazing. Justin is boring, negative, doesn’t feel like he enjoys his job or sports really. Sounds like he’d rather sleep than watch sports. Disappointed they couldn’t find a stronger partner for alish. I gave it a solid try but JD & Blake/Ennis shows are a better...Read full review »

Great, balanced insights from Ailish and Justin. Electric chemistry!
Cpinelli via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/22
This show was one of the most pleasant parts of my day when Bunkis and Blake were co-hosts. Even with the addition of Ailish it was still a must listen for me everyday. But the current rendition of the show has become unbearable. After following it for a year and a half I have to unsubscribe....Read full review »

This show has become tired and bloated. There’s WAY too much hockey content, and basketball feels like an afterthought. On the morning after the raptors home opener, they had the nerve to say they buried the lead (an nhl story) after kicking it off with Raptors content. A winning Raptors opener...Read full review »

Unfortunately, I am unable to listen live, but I do make sure to listen to at least one hour of the the Podcasts everyday. I think Ailish and Justin trade analysis bits nicely and seem to listen to what the other is saying. Spoiler alert: They get married and have 4 kids (one playing each of...Read full review »

This show is going to be so different than the OG morning show. I’m sure it will still be good. Mix in some jd tho
chomamauh via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/26/22
Really wanted to like this show. It’s unlistenable without Blake.
Shan616 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/31/22
I’ve been listening to the show for awhile now. And the dynamic that existed between the three of them, JD, Ailish and Blake was great. Even just JD and Ailish has been amazing. It’s clear at times Ailish isn’t a experienced or as knowledgeable as JD so I haven’t enjoyed the Ailish hour as...Read full review »

Blake is the heart and soul of the show. Freakin beauty. I really loved good show but I’m still salty at JD for blocking me on Twitter after I disagreed with him on a boneheaded Ondrej Kase take. #promoteblake #firejd

Hard to listen when he hogs the mic with his (often) misinformed opinions
Tom Foolery 1357 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/17/22
Could EVERYONE please stop shoving gambling down my throat!
cartwheel 69 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/30/22
meh
not the best analysis. wandering conversations. boring “hot” takes (eg “if you don’t like fighting in hockey, then find another sport to watch”) its better to listen to one of the other shows as a podcast than listen to this show live. i tried to listen and tried to like it but it just isn’t very...Read full review »

These beauties know their sports. Listen in for great betting advice. Also they should lemme be guest for some great NFL content (wink)
humblz via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/21/22
The day just doesn’t feel right without winning money after listening to the Rake & Wake segment. Keep up the good work!
Hotch34 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/06/22
If you’re a Toronto or Canadian sports fan, this show is must-listen. // I’m glad that the podcast is segmenting the gambling talk in predictable spots so it’s easy to skip for anyone who’s not inclined. // It would be great if in interviews the crew would try asking natural follow up questions...Read full review »

I used to try to listen live on the way to work or dropping the kids off at school. Now I don’t miss an insight or take with your podcasts and I love it. Plus, I continue to hold out hope that I will win Leafs tickets.
Schultzyadam via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/03/22
I used to be a big fan of JD and Ben but this new show is just JD talking as loud as he can to get his “spicy” take of the hour out. If JD takes a step back and lets Blake and Ailish have more of a voice the show would be much better. Ben grounded JD in the past and now the guy is unhinged with...Read full review »

Love listening to the podcast and hearing about local sports news! Especially when it comes to the leafs…great knowledge from all hosts! Enjoyable and easy to listen!
Daniella Quattro via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/16/22
Love the show, always listen while at work. The pod option is awesome for when I miss anything during the live broadcast.
Mike Letters via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/15/22
Jd bunkis hates base ball. He pretends to like it. But it’s a lie. He just wants you to like him. I love baseball for real. Not like jd. Fake baseball fan jd bunkis, hating baseball since 1989
Olesauce via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/11/22
Great combo of hosts and guests. Excellent takes with a lot of passion for the Toronto sports teams.
Jesse in Squamish via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/09/22
Very knowledgeable and smart hosts.
Shoots77 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/07/22
Very informative, high energy sports discussion. Must listen to programming.
Gene_I via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/07/22
Hot takes and Bad takes are 2 different things. With all due respect for his opinions it’s better for my health if I stop listening to this show lol
tesofancy via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/03/22
I have listened to the Fan every day for years and I just can’t get into these three I loved JD on Good Show and like Blake’s knowledge But not a fan of the chemistry of the three of them In my opinion there is WAY too much gambling conversation
17LAT via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/25/22
By far the best morning show in the city, one of the best radio host on air. Fresh takes on sports and life topics. Really hits home sometimes!
Pasqueezey via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/22/22
You guys feel like my personal friends. Thanks guys. Great show. Jd is the best Blake is a beast #Ailish simp

Honestly this show makes my morning drive to work a lot better. Without it I would hate my life.
Jd is the goat via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/14/22
Have been listening to the fan for years and have been a big fan of JD since I first heard him. Blake and Ailish have been great additions to a regular spot on the Fan590. Each one of these personalities brings something different to the table and it just works! This show hits all the spots. ...Read full review »

It’s a fun, daily listen, each host has their own insight into various topics and brings their own unique touch. JD also seems like the kind of guy I’d like to play dice with in a garage some time.
sigbox via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/08/22
He’s spends half the show asking people to slide into his DMs on IG. Blake and Ailish seem to have greet chemistry together.
nsintdot via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/08/22
Always good advice from JD

Someone mute the JD guys Mic. Gives headaches and talks in circles
swaygas via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/07/22
Enough said. 5 stars.
CookieMonster99887766 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/03/22
I excited refresh my feed every morning waiting the new episodes. The hosts provide well balanced information and opinions. JD represents the every fan - passionate and vocal opinions. Blake brings the stats to back up his thoughts. And Ailish provides a balance of the two and a thoughtful...Read full review »

Best morning show around
chris unzy via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/18/22
My go-to Toronto sports podcast. JD is the perfect balance between a fan and a broadcaster in my opinion, and I always tune in to hear what he has to say.
