Ethan is a master podcaster who invites friends and colleagues on to discuss issues from both sides of the political aisle. If you haven’t joined the Substack, you’re missing a huge part of Ethan’s fascinating content. I particularly enjoy the behind-the-scenes discussions on sports topics,...Read full review »

You are not inherently interesting subject matter, talk about topics, let your guests talk. Nobody cares about your self indulgent anecdotes.

Enjoying this podcast but almost didn't get past the first couple of minutes because I was worried the weird distracting elevator music was going to play under the conversation for the entire podcast. Please just have the music fade out earlier.Read full review »

But I really enjoy this podcast. It’s worth listening to the sports banter for me to get to the interesting cultural insights between Ethan and his guests.

There is way too much music in this podcast. For example, the introductory music in the Chuck Klosterman episode didn’t end until two minutes after the start of the episode, well after Ethan and Chuck started talking. This sort of thing is really annoying and distracting enough to make it...Read full review »

Lia Thomas has an unfair advantage when competing against biological women. Lia Thomas has benefited from testosterone levels throughout her years as a teenage/ adult male. She has no place in women's competitive sport. Lia Thomas is neither hero nor martyr. Corporate media doesn’t reflect...Read full review »

Your conversations are excellent along with your guests. I highly recommend this podcast. I heard you on Jason Whitlock and Will Cain. Solid work!

I thoroughly enjoy Ethan Strauss’ ability to discuss multiple sides of issues. House of Strauss is an excellent listen!!

Ethan‘s great! Used to be funny. Pretty topical and insightful when not going on and on about the commentary of the commentary of the cultural commentary

It is indulgent, please talk about something else

I’ll give it a few more listens because Ethan has built up that respect over the years, but there were some seriously garbage takes on that podcast with Woz. It sounded like a discussion on Reddit.

But was disappointed to learn that this is just like the myriad other anti-woke and reactionary podcasts out there that are now a dime a dozen. There is sadly a seemingly bottomless market for these takes but it’s lazy, tired, and self-interested. Bummer.

Ethan is one of the most intellectual nba writers and fits well as a podcaster. More Ethan, more Amin, more Tom please.
BM12345634 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/09/21
From ESPN to The Athletic. From The Athletic to Substack. From Substack to a sandwich board. Always here for Ethan’s rhetoric and strained logic. 2 stars.
Rico_Montega via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/21
Imagine being an nba writer who spends all his time trying to convince everyone the nba is dying.... dude is a fear mongering joke.
pleass stop via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/27/21
Is this still Ethan’s podcast, or Amin’s soliloquy? Strauss gets run over all over the place. Amin is ok in sparing amount, but take a breath every now and then so your oversized head is not depleted of oxygen.

Please never bring the pajama boys back ever again. Edge diary and Liu are the absolute WORST of fan media. Usually enjoy Ethan’s guests but miss me with this.
klaytheist via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/17/21
I feel Ethan thinks he is more important than the players he talks about. His arrogant attitude is offensive. I am not sure what gives him the right to be so rude and cruel to the players he covers. This podcast is simply a self serving exercise for Ethan. The podcast does not offer any insight...Read full review »

i really really dislike this pod, and most of its takes ... but i keep listening. is that 2 or 3 stars ? gonna go with 2

Ethan Strauss is the best nba writer and commentator period l. Combine that with the best producer jade hoye and you have the nba’s best podcast. I miss the voicemails but can’t get enough of Ethan, especially for some reason his concern that Killian Hayes might be the French Cam Payne.
big queens via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/18/20
Great host, guests, producer, theme music, and original concept. Really concerned about the public ratings of the athletic as a corporation though, so let me spend the majority of my review discussing that instead. It seems as they because the athletic is having sales all the time how do they...Read full review »

This guy does not know basketball at all. He is the classic NBA media who doesn’t want to analyze the game because he doesn’t know it, and only wants to talk about hypothetical storylines about NBA stars off court drama. Guy is a complete joke and it’s why KD hates him so much.

Love your show. Appreciate the genuine perspective!!! You guys, in my opinion, speak value with truth.

I usually really enjoy this podcast; Ethan is terrific. I felt like he didn't give Nate enough space in this one to really elaborate on his points; I found myself getting irritated every time Ethan cut Nate off in the middle of a response. Let the man talk, and then respond!Read full review »

I’ve had my own little tiffs with Ethan, okay, but he is an outstanding reporter.
mikey c 6 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/23/19
Allie and Ethan are great! I enjoy listening to their podcasts, and it’s always fun to hear Allie (a non NBA fan) discussing with Ethan (an NBA nerd) about the crazy and dramatic league that is the NBA🙌
modupè via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/20/19
She’s asks such good questions. Questions that us sports fans never really think about because we think “we know” but you never really know something well until you can explain it. Ethan’s cool I guess. MORE DAD TALK!
JamalM510 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/19/19
I love the idea of the alie pod but having every topic spun by Ethan is obviously is going to slant her opinion. This superstar agenda that Ethan spins is honestly frustrating. The lack of humanity given to the rich black athlete is disheartening. The idea that Anthony Davis doesn’t have the...Read full review »

Expectations are high. And they were met. Still expecting that 1st redacted article from the Athletic to be released. That one, the one about Colin
Greg(Name not Greg) via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/16/19
One of the best if not the best warriors pods!
carl strestremsky via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/15/19
The latest episode with the long-awaited return of Allie was the best yet! More Allie and Ethan, please!
liprobinson via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/10/19
Awesome, smart and funny pod!
NikLAsFrey via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 03/08/19
Editing my review to say Allie is the unanimous MVP of this pod. She should hold out for a better deal, not quite sure her value is realized lol.
theflash2141 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/08/19
Love the Juxtaposition and premise. Ethan and Allie have a fun loving conversation while speaking 2 different languages. As an NBA content junkie It makes me yearn for similar conversations with my wife whom rightly so, is flabbergasted about how much I care about this ultimately insignificant,...Read full review »

Part of the TMZ sports network this show gives you all the juicy anonymous source drama and intrigue that you not only want but need to distract you from your life. Want criticism of players from someone who has never played and spends the entire game on twitter? You got it! Recipe calls for...Read full review »

He’s a great personality that’s entertaining as heck. But there’s a lot more to Ethan and this podcast. Interesting, informed, funny and intelligent. I’m sure there isn’t a personality that is as good as a journalist as Ethan. I’m there isn’t a journalist as interesting as Ethan. There...Read full review »

An extension of his amazing writing, Ethan’s podcast is the best place to hear tales of the locker room and unique perspectives on the Warriors and NBA at large.

Waist of time.
