Pretty one sided even to the point of admitting to being friends with the subject. Lots of untrue facts in this series. Example of one sided opinions, the NBA tells refs what they do wrong to make them better. It’s like a ball player watching tape to see what he did wrong. So when they are told...Read full review »

I’ve been done with the NBA for a while though. I love basketball, but it has to be pure. Thanks for shearing more light on the ‘WWFness’ of the NBA. The NBA is a joke!

…, but glad that it was finally proven. I do believe that this Podcast truly proves how rigged the system was and remains. This is a fantastic listen and we’ll worth your time. Great reporting that is extremely well produced and presented. I’m sad to find out what I’ve felt for 30 years is...Read full review »

I am a big sports fan but, for whatever reason, don’t have an NBA team I root for. Interestingly, I married a Bucks fan. Anyway, this podcast combined true crime and sports and I hung on every word. I was also born into a huge betting family. Incredible work, Tim. I am fully team Tommy...Read full review »

This series was awesome!!! Netflix just came out with the Untold: Operation Flagrant Foul. I wonder if they got the idea from you all.

Soooooooo entertaining!!! I’m sad it’s over.

Love love all of Payne’s podcast but just to much unnecessary music, it’s hard to follow. love your podcast I was hooked on of course Up And Vanished!
pjbrock via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/31/22
I cannot emphasize literally enough. Most of the stories have been debunked (including any mob involvement) and the producers of the podcast knew this and made it anyways. That is lying, not investigative journalism. The people who made this should be ashamed. I feel sorry for everyone who...Read full review »

As someone who doesn’t watch or know anything about basketball it speaks volumes that I was hooked on this podcast from start to end. Listened in one sitting. It was good that the podcast looked at things from a systemic angle rather than vilify individuals. I feel bad for the players who were...Read full review »

Top-notch storytelling and investigative journalism. This podcast blew my mind! I had no idea the extent of what was happening and still is in the NBA.
DoYogaWithMe via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/29/22
Well produced, well edited, well researched & presented with a sense of insightful purpose. Intrigue, facts, mystery, answers & even more questions! A great recipe for a brilliant story. I genuinely liked the fact that this podcast “dropped” me into this world. Into this other side of...Read full review »

So when you are doing an investigative podcast, you can’t bleep out names. If you’re bleeping out names to avoid litigation, then that’s not investigative journalism. Say the names, put them on air and if you get sued, bring the truth to the courts. The legitimacy of the podcast is debatable...Read full review »

Was a huge NBA guy but fell out of love, if I knew this story… I would of left the NBA years before. Love it!!!
Vols Fols via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/13/22
I loved this podcast and I don’t like basket ball. A perfect production. My only Criticism: Marc Cuban is a CCP puppet, his loyalties are offshore. Stop thinking he’ll do anything to help your cause, you’re not worth enough to make him care. Awesome podcast!
M. Caringer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/28/22
Citing Bill Simmons Page 2 articles and interviewing Darren Rovell about sports gambling are great ways to not have any credibility.
Brokbird via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/22/22
As a basketball fan this podcast was eye-opening. Great investigative reporting on the referee scandal, and the bigger picture that NBA fans never knew about. Highly recommend whether or not you’re a fan of the NBA.
WhitG22 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/14/22
Amazing job putting this together. The content as well as the production was top notch. Thankful someone finally had the guts to address this issue. Long overdue. Kudos!

What a wild fantastic ride! Good job guys!
penny4989 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/18/22
Tonight is game 6 of warriors v Celtics after listening to this I’m running out placing money on Celtics to tie the series for a game 7. League loves that game 7 money. Nba as the mob guys said is not a sport league it’s like pro wrestling
Swwacoach via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/16/22
This is some of the best investigative journalism I’ve ever seen. I feel like I understand how the NBA operates as a business much better now. This podcast is the type of content I crave. I was just expecting something more at the end. The entire podcast feels like a build up to something big and...Read full review »
CmoHo4sho via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/22/22
It’s a good podcast and I recommend it. Same time there’s a (whole) lot of filler. The info carried my experience of listening, the compelling nature of the story itself carried me along, and in terms of production it’s not like, bad at all. But there is * a lot * of filler.
totalrecall9000 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/24/22
A truly sensational listen, episodes are trim with no fat/fillers, each one is well constructed and has a really good pace. Thanks for the hard work y’all must have put in, it was not wasted on me. Amazing work!
Benny3C via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/15/22
I've always contended the only difference between the NBA & the WWE is at least Vince McMahon admits the WWE is sports "entertainment", nothing has changed. If you thought David Stern was an unlikable a-hole before listening, this pod cast will absolutely confirm your...Read full review »

First off, I’m only a casual fan of the NBA, having watched a few games here and there, but I haven’t really followed it since I was a kid. This story was so captivating, so well-told, so interesting, that I listened intently to each and every episode. It incorporated not only the NBA, but the...Read full review »
Iggyandspike via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/19/22
Truly captivating story. Tim and his team did a great job of pulling multiple angles/perspectives of the case and painting a story. This is a must listen for every fan of any type sport. Makes you really think deeply on what happens behind closed doors…If you see a negative review, it’s probably...Read full review »

Captivating to say the very least. The moment I started this podcast I couldn’t stop listening. This was so well put together I could envision everything like a movie. Good stuff
Nate Brockett via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/08/22
Hey, sports fans. If you’ve ever truly thought your favorite NBA team got screwed out of a win by the refs, or that the NBA playoffs were rigged by the league, or anything in between, you must listen to this podcast.
DougInPrinceton via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/22
I crushed through this in a day. Very well done and a fascinating reveal on what we frankly already know. I’m glad everyone on the NBA is making bank, but not from me. I have no need for professional wrestling with a ball. But this was great!
HussMang via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/22
Binged in 1 day. Like a book I couldn’t put down
bcdanahy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/24/21
I never write reviews. Had to for this one. I thought it was that good.
Florendo Anthony via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/18/21
Great interviews with colourful people, very well researched and addictive from eps 1. I don’t even know that much about basketball & was still thoroughly engrossed! Highly recommend.

I’m a fan of all sports and I thought I knew this story. I’ve had it in my podcast library for months... thinking I’d delete it because I knew the story and what could they possibly add. I finally listened to the first episode and I was hooked. Two days later I’ve completed it . Thisis a...Read full review »

This is a great podcast. I enjoyed it and am not a sports fan.

Got me hooked instantly!
A_sanchez123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/04/21
This is a very compelling story with a lot of potential, but unfortunately the podcast beats little resemblance to actual journalism.
Ray Weaver via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/03/21
Gives more insight on the nba referees and the scandal that was exposed in the early 2000’s
Dontay217 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/10/21
Not super interested in Basketball but this story is worth your time. Well told and good research told in organized Manner I Recommend this one

Well done gentleman!!! Season two?
702play via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/01/21
Can’t say enough good things about this podcast. I have referred it to everyone. This confirms what we have all thought. There is definitely favoritism for NBA teams and NBA stars. The level of corruption in the NBA is absolutely crazy. Stern had friends in high places to make the FBI sweep the...Read full review »
Sanpitch_97 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/26/21
Wow
I always thought there was more to the Tim Danaghy scandal. This pod does an awesome job dismantling what the NBA wants us to believe about it. I kind of always suspected this. Hoping for a season 2!
falconidae via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/25/21
I’m blown away how close the NBA was from being exposed for what they really are…another WWE. There a major entity that’s lying to it fans and customers to continue lining there pockets, with a game that supposed to be a fair athletic competition but in fact was a shame on almost every level. Im...Read full review »

If you are a sports fan at all you will love this podcast. Once I found it I listen to almost the entire first season in 1 day!
NaeaRae via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/11/21
You can watch any NBA game and convince yourself that the refs are out to get your team. The podcast starts well by looking at the crooked ref and his business dealings. Then it spends way too much time implicating the whole league with flimsy anecdotal evidence.
53wildcat via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/21
real informative and makes you think abotu what is going on in the nba
Captain Swanigan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/08/21
Podcast likely includes bias, but does enough to run down a lot more info than we've caught before. Highly recommend.Read full review »
Pigskin.Lover via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/03/21
Really insightful, well research and brilliantly delivered podcast about the NBA. Difficult not to binge listen to this one. It’s made me see NBA basketball in a completely new light. The game should be about competition not about money.
