Customer Reviews
Best American White Guy Award… GRAYSON ALLEN
You list Tyler Herro? You didn’t mention even GRAYSON ALLEN. Hello?
He peaked a few years ago
This pod used to be unmissable. Now it’s just filled with propaganda for whatever guest he has on, a little bit of Lebron hate every single episode, and a lot of bad takes with 0 ownership. Here’s an example: he put KD over Lebron in his All NBA voting and then refused to say a single negative thing about him when he got swept. Just attributed it to his age. He literally was about to ignore the take until Russillo made him speak on it.
Glitches
I have been wondering for months why there so many glitches in the Simmons and Rusillo podcasts. Todays even had a commercial being read over the interview with Van Lathan. What’s the deal with this? Kyle? Cerruti?
