“Love the new format of going live on Fridays - a great perk of subscribing to The Athletic. Pete does a great job of providing balanced, insightful analysis on and off the field.”

“Nothing like non-ND guys taking multiple opportunities to trash ND football on…checks notes…an ND football podcast.
Can’t understand why I bothered.”

“I’m a longtime USC fan and grad but these guys are very articulate, knowledgeable and enjoyable to listen to. These guys call it with clear glasses; they aren’t “homers”. Refreshing!”

“The ads in the latest shows are injected by the athletic at random parts within the podcast itself. This causes the ads to mix in while the hosts are in mid syllable. This makes it very frustrating when trying to understand what the hosts are communicating. In addition the ads are horrible audio...”Read full review »

“Pete and Matt do a tremendous job. They are intelligent and rational. They don’t pull unsupported opinions out just to further a point or discussion. They avoid falling into a recency reaction and making blanket statements . They are what you should expect out of a professional sports writers...”Read full review »

“Pete and Matt balance facts and stats while remembering that this is supposed to be FUN. They have a great post-game and pre-game shows and throw in some terrific guests along the way. They have inside sources and clearly know a tremendous amount about the game. But what sets this podcast apart...”Read full review »

I live in the NYC area and listen to a lot of...”Read full review »

“I tire of hearing complaints. We all know they need more 5 star players. Indoor facility, nutritionists, strength training and psychologists are all good improvements. Talk about play calling, scheme changes or coaching and recruiting is preferred.”

“Pretty good Irish Football pod. I like Pete a lot. Insightful as always. Matt on the other hand… I think he’s kind of weird and brings some awkward energy to the podcast. Tends to interrupt a lot and laugh at his own “jokes.” For that, I can only give it 4 stars.”

“Pete is knowledgeable and plugged in to ND. Matt constantly interrupts him to offer recycled and unfunny attempts at humor. These usually involve some reference to the program from five or six years ago which was the last time he had any insight on it. He’s not smart, clever, or experienced...”Read full review »

“Hi guys and thanks for doing the pod. Wanted to give some constructive feedback. It seems like a lot of times when Sampson is taking his time and trying to give a cerebral answer, Fortuna will jump in and interrupt him. Matt also does this to guests (Tirico, in particular). I appreciate Matt’s...”Read full review »
