“It’s painful to listen to. I wish there was a different host because this guy puts up new episodes all the time and I would love to hear anyone else in the world talk about the bruins other than this guy”

“The delivery is clunky, consistently stops talking mid-sentence like he got lost in the script he’s reading or something. Sounds more like a post game ESPN column than actual meaningful commentary.”

“Loads of potential and good content…. But
Without being rude, does the host have a speech impediment? If so, he’s doing great, if not, why the pause after every single word. Turning a 20min pod into 30 minutes.
I tried and tried but couldn’t get past the 10 minute mark.
Maybe run the script...”Read full review »

“The information is good, but unfortunately, this is a perfect example of just because anyone CAN host a podcast, that doesn’t mean they SHOULD.
The host stops talking mid sentence, which makes it incredibly difficult to follow his thought process.”

“Feels like it has potential. Some hard downsides. Just can’t stick with this one. The first 3 minutes are painful every time. Feels like a 10-15 minutes of entertaining or informative for 30 minutes of total listen. It feels like a lot of reading straight from the Internet. There’s a significant...”Read full review »

“I really gave this podcast a shot. I love podcasts and I love the Bruins so listening to this podcast seemed like a no-brainer to me. What I got instead was an ad-riddled experience, awful audio quality, and a host so awkward that he made me feel incredibly uncomfortable.
