Ant Edward's, unprompted, took a video shaming and degrading some gay individuals minding their own business. Vernon made it sound like Ant was the victim, saying “people tried to cancel him.” You mean hold him accountable? For promoting homophobia on his platform? Vernon has dismissed and...Read full review »

Chris is a moron. He doesn’t play sports and just has wild claims! Typical journalist that doesn’t have experience hands-on.

I have been listening in from Australia for years. I love the chemistry between these two even know they come from completely different walks of life. I look forward to every episode that is released. You guys are very funny, yet very knowledgeable. Keep up the good work Callum James

These two are absolute morons. The wolves didn’t make the playoffs last year? Watch one game that’s not Celtics or grizzlies.

Love the connection between the hosts and Verno is great at adding in the shot of reality when Kevin goes off the rails.

kevin is a straight up weirdo. verno yells a lot.
Nude collector via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/23
I love the dynamics these 2 share. I appreciate Verno’s takes that don’t always follow the typical groupthink. It may lead to some mean tweets and bad reviews, but I’m 100% sure he can handle it. He’s right more often than not. KOC really does a great job of sharing meaningful data to the...Read full review »

Among a lot of nice Basketball-podcast the duo of Verno and Kevin‘O‘[fill in what you want] are by far my most favorite listen! Much love from Germany.

People are calling it the best Irish two-hander since Banshees. That’s just what I’ve heard on the streets.

Y’all make great content
Harvey Butthole via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/07/23
Great Show! Kevin check out the photo of Tatum’s ankle roll! He still played! So quick to fire people and say players stink! For such a good guy you should lighten up! Love the show and you 2 are both fabulous 😊

This is my go to basketball podcast content. I love the back-and-forth and bickering. The occasional arguing and Grizzlies-bias is fun, as I feel too many basketball podcasts are straight-forward and boring. Keep it up Vernone and Kevin O’Cranky!
Kelby. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/11/23
Best basketball podcast out there. Verno’s blatant Grizzlies homerism and KOC’s absurd over valuing of the newest shiny object are just minor bumps in the road. Both are insightful with respect to all things basketball and have a great rapport.

I really love Kevin’s coverage but Verno is bordering on insufferable. I want to like him but just cant find the right excuses. Stopped listening.

Been my running partner for years. Getting better with time. Keep it up.
Chuck Sampedro via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/28/23
Love it!!
Oli G 53 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/23
I’ve been a faithful listener from the beginning, I’m inspired to do NBA talk myself, I just need to find a partner, if you have one send them my way. Never change fellas!
Xoxoluvu123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/23
Verno makes a good point once or twice a week but other than those he just sounds like an old man yelling at clouds. Most boring old head in the media world
YoyoitisBradey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/05/23
2 stars for the weird Embiid hate on this week’s episode. Would have been 1 star but strangely enough I give Verno credit for being one of the few media members to say out loud that they just don’t like Embiid. The extra star is for being honest at least.
hatebitmhz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/05/23
Mega Kawhi fan here. ‘Verno’ You sound like someone who auditioned for a part in the tv series Entourage. You almost look as annoying as you sound. And I’ve seen you on tv. All things said though, it could be worse. It could be better. But it could be worse.
dbledoink via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/04/23
lol
love them
danylo27 via Apple Podcasts · Ukraine · 03/24/23
The NBA doesn’t need another hot-take artist. Kevin’s criticisms sometimes get completely out of line and are unprofessional.
Damlar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/19/23
The show is borderline unwatchable with Vernon being te most biased “journalist” out there, with very obvious inclinations on several topics, and KOC being too nice of a guy to break it off. Just bad…
MrJulianTheBoss via Apple Podcasts · Slovenia · 03/19/23
Chris & KOC are just a unique pair of basketball fans who just happen to talk about it twice a week! There’s not been a single episode over the years that hadn’t made me smile. Loved the live episode guys - it motivated me to finally write a review after listening to the show since 2016!...Read full review »

Chris continues to victim blame whenever an incident takes place. I can’t listen and support until Chris grows up.
BlueVball via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/03/23
I’ve been listening for a while and I love 80% of most episodes and 100% of KOC. Unfortunately, Verno is getting worse with his straw-man rants. He often yells “YOU SAID <insert statement>” when, in fact, it was never said. I understand the hosts are long time friends and straw-man...Read full review »

Great NBA basketball podcast! For the real NBA fans.
MWright3215 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/28/23
Been a fan since ‘16, it’s all fun and games until the Grizzlies have gotten somewhat good. Chris can’t stand any negative commentary on anything Grizzlies related, the only content you ever here from him is when he sees a team roll through Memphis home arena. It’s honestly pretty sad Kevin has...Read full review »

Chris Vernon is decent, I struggle to make it through any podcast featuring Kevin O’Connor.
Ryan184 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/17/23
KOC
More KOC! Less Verno cause he’s been unbearable this year.
Butterfly farts via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/16/23
This pod was good about 3 years ago, but the more you listen, the more you realize how much this show is just homerism and reinforcing their own bad takes. The analysis is lazy, shallow, and often wrong. The hosts themselves have weird views (look at KOC’s twitter) and they have weird agendas...Read full review »
Jerpybaleday via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/16/23
He’s a hot take know it all who is running all over KOC who is actually trying to have a conversation. I’m sure he’s feeling great that he gets under KOC’s skin but between his voice and his volume and wanting to pick a fight, it’s time to head out When KOC rigthfully pointed out that AD is a...Read full review »
Led Gozeppelin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/15/23
Absolutely love the show & look forward to it each Tuesday and Friday. Chris Vernon: this recent episode Verno goes on an insane and completely false diatribe about the poor guys who play with LeBron & how it’s his fault and not theirs that they get blamed for not being better. Kyrie...Read full review »
PlayerMIS via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/15/23
Reluctant caveat: Five star podcast. KOC & Verno have been the best basketball podcast for years, consistently putting out wildly entertaining, analytical content even through the Januarys of the season. ***THAT. SAID.*** Verno’s recent unhinged (and frankly, medically concerning) anti-LeBron...Read full review »

Set KOC free! Vernon has the worst voice and NBA takes. Just another annoying white guy podcast talking about the NBA.
This-guy- via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/23
Self explanatory
RamzysB via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/27/23
I used to love this show but KOC is the worst. Wish verno could get his own pod like KOC is on 3 different shows I need verno to be on a different show so I can still listen to him. He is the only reason I listen to the pod I constantly have to skip past Kevin’s part.
Kevin O’ shut up via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/27/23
The best ‘basketball talk’ show in the podsphere. Good chemistry, good observations, good conversations. There is nothing to fix on this show; it fires on all cylinders, all the time.
You'llThankMeLater via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/25/23
Think Kevin is great, strong dislike of Vernon.
Blackwingarrow20 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/21/23
White, Kylie & Caruso ALL have more blocks than Shai? What am I missing here? We calling him a forward? We shouldn’t be
D0ZE1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/18/23
My 2nd favorite NBA podcast (1st is Group Chat) lol. But I do have a confession to make. I been listening to this podcast for a while now and I assumed Chris Vernon was black. 😂😂😂😂 I have no idea why I think it’s just his voice, so I was very surprised when I googled him 😂😂😂. But anyways great...Read full review »

The name The Mismatch is as accurate as it is a misnomer. While different in philosophies, outgoingness, and thoughts on where the Memphis Grizzlies will finish in rankings, KOC and Verno are perfectly matched when it comes to producing and dynamic, thoughtful, and engaging podcast about...Read full review »
