Miss the old HTD format/hosts
I really enjoyed HTD and was excited about the prospect of an NBA focused show. What I liked about HTD and what I enjoy about the fivethirtyeight politics podcast is the unique combination of analysis delivered by people with distinctive and authentic personalities. I have mixed feelings about the first episode of The Lab. Basketball is my favourite sport and I really enjoyed the in-depth analytics conversation. I honestly did not find that the three guests had much in the way of personality however and I miss the diversity of perspectives that you used to find in HTD. I also liked the energy, humour, and perspective that Kate Fagan brought to the show. That said, this is definitely a very quiet podcast that I will enjoy falling asleep to.

More reviews of Hot Takedown
Hugely progressive (in every sense) discussion about sport. Would highly recommend to any sports with a decent IQ. Just wish the episodes were longer!

I love the idea of putting real analysis to the hot sports take epidemic. Le Batard show does the funny. FiveThirtyEight does the data.

...to my interest of sport. Who cares about sumo? Well, I do, now. Maybe ESPN will let them cover rugby, just once? Nice show, 2 sigma of the time.....
