Volume is down on interviews, but the ads will blast you out of the room. The phone interviews are the worst for audio quality… These fixes are not hard. Otherwise good content.

September 30 recruiting roundup has 5 minutes of ads and non-recruiting talk and 3 minutes of recruiting. It’s getting out of hand.

Especially when John U Bacon is on. Someone get that man a new phone or someone at the station figure out how to clean it up because it’s really bad

Sam adds a terrific flavour to conversations. As does the rest of the team and guests. But could you place the commercials in natural breaks rather than between 2 words. It’s very disorienting when a commercial breaks in during an interview question being posed or answered.

The sound is horrible. I can’t hear the people speaking without squeaking and sound interference. Podcasts should be better produced. Where is sound engineering? Limiter? I love the content and opinions. But it is nearly unlistenable. Listen to more if I can take it. But alas it has never...Read full review »

Kind of embarrassing that you have a grown man on a professional podcast who can’t pass up any chance to make a 69 joke. Is Miz a teenager?

I agree with Jon. Wearing earbuds is a constant frustration turning the volume up and down constantly. Come on guys! You work for a radio station! Put the engineer to work solving this frustrating issue. Jim from FLA

I listen to Sam, Ira and crew 5 days a week podcast from Florida, love it. One issue, the volume for guests is much lower than the host. Much too loud for commercials. Sound engineering needs improvement.
Jon from FLA via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/28/24
Really enjoy the content but the loudness of the commercials and inconsistent volume of different speakers make it almost unlistenable.

Trump tried to overthrow our system of government, the World’s best democracy. And WTKA runs ads for him? I’m out!
AllFreysMustDie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/23/24
Sam might not be trying to blame the fans for the lack of NIL, but it’s sure starting to sound that way. I absolutely believe the players have earned a cut of the money, but this pay up or you’re gonna lose the team is gonna turn fans away. Are you even able to criticize the administration about...Read full review »

5* info on University of Michigan sports. Recruiting roundup is a favorite. But the sound quality is terrible. Some days I switch it off. All the popping in my speakers on the Ls, sh, Ps, Is. It’s not my levels because I’ve adjusted the Volume, EQ and sound levels. Hire a capable engineer.

Love the show Stuck in Ohio!
TheBigFish54 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/21/23
Maybe hire a sound guy to fix the levels and smooth out the vast discrepancies in volume between guests and also hosts. Also figure out how to turn off alerts on your computer and phone so that it is not blowing up during broadcasts. Love the round table, but it needs some production work to...Read full review »

There is always been an understanding on this program. That politics is to be kept a side, but unless you are a host or a call in guest being interviewed, you can take cheap shots at the south, politicians, and any opinion that varies from the political correctness of the host of the show and top...Read full review »

Love this! Try to listen everyday live through App, but use this when needed!!! The best coverage of U of M athletics!!! Sam has me connected to The Michigan Insider and Ira is a great family man who loves Maryland and Michigan but maybe not in that order! Awesome listening!!!
rjbwings via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/05/23
Great Sam. The king of back pats. You talked up Isaiah Barnes as much as Kobe. You the man.
TonyB507 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/26/23
Sam and Ira are outstanding! They are my daily go-to for all things UM. I look forward to their dialogue and daily guests! Go Blue! 〽️^♾
@micheltucker via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/05/23
This is the best place to find information on Michigan Wolverines in any sport.
John atbwork via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/16/22
The content is great. But the editing for the commercials makes it all but unlistenable. And the health insurance commercial is a joke. Scam???
WayneHills via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/22/22
Love hearing about Michigan football - never too much!! The team, the team, the team!!
Big House Boy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/21/22
The mid-sentence commercials are annoying a.f. I get that commercials are a necessity but do they really need to be so obnoxiously placed?
Mich Go Blue via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/08/22
…they get too silly in the Monday morning qb. I’m all for having fun, but their silliness overpowers the breakdown.
101732 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/07/22
He just talks over Sam without any concern or etiquette… He knows nothing about anything. He talks so fast so Sam cant get a word in… Ira is insufferable. 🤮
Nahabdn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/03/22
DG and Sam are awesome together. Tons of great insight and they make me laugh out loud.
JimLutt via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/26/22
Its a shame that a show this good can’t figure out how to have professional audio production. Call in interviews are nearly unlistenable. Often cant hear all the roundtable on Thursday. They need to step it up.

Best sports talk show around!!!
cilley11 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/06/22
Best Michigan reporter in the game. No1 does what he does daily!
Slantyray21 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/08/22
Always uploaded day within hours of the live radio. Fantastic show and entertaining!

Sam Webb is the voice of Michigan sports for me. This is a great show.

Are a joke
Sonny Franzese via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/18/22
Sam and Ira are the best for University of Michigan sports. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars is because the sound quality is not brilliant, particularly when there are callers (either listeners or people being interviewed). There are so many times when the callers are almost inaudible...Read full review »

Show has regressed in terms of content.
jayray11111 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/22/21
Sam no longer gets important info, usually CB’ing someone minutes after another high level reporter initiates. His left wing woke politics are boarderline racist and recently, threaten the foundations that the athletic department has been built upon. His blind promotion of Joe Milton over...Read full review »

If you had to choose just one pod focusing on Michigan athletics, this should be in your final four. Ira and Sam make a good team. Each adds something. Lots of terrific analysts/commentators are featured in the various segments. John U.Bacon, Steve Clarke, the Round Table speakers, Joe Simon...Read full review »

I have been listening to Sam and Ira on the Michigan Insider for years now. In reading the reviews I see folks complaining about the political slant of the show. I appreciate that you guys address all sports issues, even when they are difficult and may intersect with politics. Keep up the good...Read full review »

I used to listen to several segments a day and I NEVER missed the Mgoblog, Bacon and Recruiting Roundups. I also would listen to everything on Mondays to hear them breakdown the games. For the last couple of years the politics have seeped into so many of the topics that I can’t take it. It would...Read full review »

Love the university of Michigan information, find it hard to listen to the rest of the show due to it’s political slant. Sports is sports, politics is politics
Meeechigan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/21
Good team, great show. Knowledgeable and Entertaining. They are my #1 go to for UM sports. So good that OSU fans tune in to catch up on the latest UM news. Sam rocks it! I also highly recommend the “Michigan Insider” with Sam and Tim… in some aspects, an even better show.
Groovyapp via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/21
I only listen to Sam and Ira for real up to date news on Michigan. I love how Sam frames insider information, without giving up too much info. Sam is always spot on and I appreciate his integrity, by not taking advantage of the relationships hr has built.
dweavefresh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/21
Go to source for info on Michigan football. No one is more plugged into recruiting news than Sam is. That being said it can be difficult to listen to at times because he can get too political. He seems to care a little too much about the color of someone’s skin.
dabatman99 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/21
Really solid content, you gotta pick and choose cuz some of the podcasts don’t have any information that I’m interested in. But oh mannnnn skip the first 2 mins of every episode so you can skip that annoying “THE TICKET”. That’s gotta be one of the worst intros I’ve ever heard.
SBM2442 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/03/21
If you’re a Michigan fan, this show needs to be on your list.
AEGeorge via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/07/20
Sam and Ira are always on point and if you’re a Michigan fan, there is no better daily listen for all things U of M sports.
Del tha funkee homosapien 79 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/29/20
Was decent when the show stuck to michigan sports instead of virtue signaling and pushing liberal agendas. Unsubscribed, suggest ya’ll do the same.
