“Trying to listen to the draft recap was the last straw. Neither host has much knowledge of the players taken or the information involved in the process, but that is honestly fine by me. Baseball drafts & player development are notoriously niche and difficult to cover. What is not difficult is declining to pretend you know things you clearly don’t know just to fill the air. The Shelly character *clearly* doesn’t know what she’s talking about and it’s painful listening to her patch together & try to pass off as her own knowledge superficial snippets from draft reviews that any of us can google.
If you’re going to do a serious podcast, take it seriously. Nobody needs a show where the content is somebody pretending to have a clue about a subject most listeners as fans know well enough to see through the act. In fact, that’s alienating.”
