Barnwell is knowledgeable and thoughtful in his analysis, which makes him better than 99% of sports journalists.

Bill is one of the most objective, level-headed football analysts out there. I appreciate how he can challenge the rigor of his guests’ analysis when he disagrees. Definitely a much-needed balance in a landscape dominated by cohosts exclusively agreeing with each other or its polar opposite,...Read full review »

Barnwell has an analytical mind and a precise style that leaves most consensus opinions in the dust. For the take everyone will figure out next week, hear it here first. Numbers and ball don’t lie.

Robert Mays and Bill have excellent chemistry and also extensive knowledge about football so not only an informative episode, but very enjoyable to listen to them banter. Love it! Also really appreciated Bill having Danny Kelly on this week.

Great podcast with JT. Have loved both of your stuff for awhile now
jimmyschmits via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/23/23
I’ve followed since the grantland days. Have always felt lucky that a mind like yours is focused on football. Great work on all platforms. Thank you!

Here after the Super Bowl trying to get into the pod, because Barnwell is the best football writer in the world. Good LORD Dominique Foxworth was a terrible guest. This pod was several tiers below The Athletic and even The Ringer NFL Show, which I didn’t expect. Will give it another shot when he...Read full review »

Not sure how a show like this can have such bad audio. This show really offers nothing unique and it seems really phoned in at this point. I’ll listen to it on a slow day if the other stuff in my feed has dried up. Ads are especially annoying on this show too

Jourdan was a fantastic guest! We miss her in Charlotte!
WLH1957 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/15/22
Seems like he barely cares about doing a podcast anymore, like it was included in his contract so he has to do it. Intro music is messed up sound level wise compared to the spoken word volume so it blasts your ears making you lower the volume then you can barely hear him until you turn the volume...Read full review »

What happened? I have never heard worse audio in my life. Every first time podcast with $20 for a Walmart mic and no experience at all puts out better audio. Are you seriously just trolling now? Just buy a mic that works. Or produce your audio. Or hire somebody? I am embarrassed for you.
Want Football Amalysis via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/11/22
Very knowledgeable. Great pod.
jpkinney08 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/13/22
Bill and Robert Mays have such a good back and forth, he should just join the podcast full time so they can have a podcast together.
Yes sir hello via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/05/22
Great podcast - informative and funny. But please fix the audio issues (one person is garbled and quiet and the other loud). Also, keeping all the tangents to a minimum would be appreciated.

ESPN should be able to buy Bill a new microphone
LFG Buffalo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/17/21
Barnwell is amazing, but could someone at ESPN please buy him a quality mic to record with?
Commish45 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/21
Bill and his friends are funny and smart, I like it when he has Mina and Gregg on the most. I was just kidding about the running backs, please unblock @capitoltitans on Twitter
Tujermaj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/22/21
Had to leave a five star after the name drops. Hope to see you in the best ball streets. Also, this show is very elite. Haven’t missed an episode in over a year (I think).
2winks via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/15/21
I love the deep dives that Bill goes on with his guests. Any NFL fan that wants to gain a deeper appreciation for the game should listen. One note of criticism though: I can’t help but think that this show could be dramatically improved with a canine co-host
Fynbios via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/31/20
Great info and fun guests. Just here to leave the 5 stars for my boy bill.
Prince Covington via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/30/20
Always great insights, but the audio quality is absolutely atrocious, borderline unlistenable
Shawmster via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/18/20
Really good but why does it sound like bill’s recording in a phone booth
Popo Neeno via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/02/20
Wow is she bad and so is her podcast. Sorry Bill for having to put up with that! Even the first question had me cringing. She makes no sense!
Blitz-n-Bluntz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/25/20
Can’t wait to listen every week
cakelover420 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/18/20
It’s a must listen for NFL Fans. It’s that simple
Dog Money via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/16/20
You should have Foxworth as your cohost to add not only a player perspective but also some personality
treiberdavid via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/19/20
Always informative. Smart host with equally smart guests. Need more mays
tjmason51 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/18/20
No surprise that one of the most intelligent and just plain great football writers hosts a brilliant podcast. Bill brings his humour, knowledge (huge amounts of it), interesting and well reasoned opinions, and just overall fun personality and combines it with great guests! Two things: more...Read full review »

Bill uses information to provide perspective. He’s one of the 2 or 3 best people in the world to host the Bill Barnwell Show
jayindisguise via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/20
Barnwell is great, and I really enjoy his insight and analysis. The problem is, the podcast generally feels like it is 10% Barnwell and 90% the opinions of guests, whose opinions I generally don’t care for.
Barnwell Blocked Me On Twitter via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/08/20
Great insight if you want to listen to talk about the New England Patriots every other episode. Boring - there are 31 other teams Bill
Suffo56 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/28/19
Barnwell blocked me on twitter for offering a valid counterpoint to his tweet. Man up billy.
Yeaa?!?!?!! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/05/19
I love the actual Bill Barnwell Show, but twice now in the last two weeks what has been advertised as the Bill Barnwell Show (deep thinking football pod) and actually been the Mina Kimes Show (pithy General Sports interest).
Benjamin W Smith via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/22/19
Mina is my instant 5 stars.
tiredgrl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/13/19
Love the podcast, seems to have skipped a week.Hope all is well.
Moxeyheller via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/08/19
I have not heard the podcast but I’m sure it’s great. I used to listen to him on Grantland back in the day with Robert Mays and Bill always gave great insight and I’m sure this podcast is no different. My biggest gripe is why is he so sensitive on Twitter? I don’t even know what I said I got...Read full review »

Been listening for years and always find Bill Barnwells insight compelling and based on stats. Would recommend for NFL fans and just generally a great listen
Cody emmett via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/28/19
I greatly prefer Bill’s analysis as opposed to “hot takes” by others.
OgLvgpaj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/19
Bill and his guest does a great job analyzing and critiquing the game with actual facts and data. Very well put together. Bonus if you live in a state where it’s legal to gamble on sports, this podcast is a MUST LISTEN.
jfgfmly via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/25/19
When a non espn writer is on- it typically sounds like the person is recording in a trash can. It’s 2019- the sound quality needs to be better. Also- barn well is analytically inclined- stop having him interview dumber people
SideHustleBooks via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/19
smart analysis without yelling, bloviating or disparaging
Der Grossenkatzen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/26/19
this show delivers.
There's A Path.. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/05/19
Bill might be the best NFL writer around and his podcast reflects this.
SalCacc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/30/18
Entertaining podcast, at its best during football season when Bill tries to look a little deeper than just previewing and recapping the week’s games. Also interesting during the football off-season when Bill covers a range of topics including basketball, baseball, soccer, WWE and the Batchelor...Read full review »
