Lots of knowledge in an inefficient package

“If Matt Collins isn’t in the episode, I skip it. But when he is on, he’s carrying the entire show. This would be outstanding if he had a counterpart who could keep up with his knowledge and presentation. Bryan Joiner used to bring that. But as it is in recent shows, the pattern is: Matt says something worthwhile that could be a great jumping-off point for a discussion, but then whoever else is on repeats the same thing back, either agreeing or disagreeing with no new info and details any potentially interesting discussion (or, as in the case of a recent episode, sighing with mock-emotion and using the word “really” twice a sentence — brutal). I can practically hear Matt shrugging as he moves on to the next topic.
I don’t bear any ill will to these folks, whose Sox writing can be good. But being a good writer does not guarantee podding ability. In fact, Matt could bring all the baseball knowledge; just get him a host who can ask decent questions and you’d have a show that’s better by at least 50%.”

“Probably. If you're a fan of the Hottest Takes, this probably isn't for you. But if you like the Red Sox and measured, informed discussion? Well there's probably a podcast for you, too, but if you're Ben Carsley's mom this is definitely your favorite podcast.
