Customer Reviews
Bill Simmons has some serious competition.
What Bill Simmons is to Boston sports, these guys are to Philly B-Ball...Minus the big paychecks and the celebrity guests and the book deals. It's a really great podcast that brings a little humor to my favorite sport, basketball. I hate to call things laugh-out loud funny, but I really did laugh out loud while listening. Give it a listen. It's a lot of fun.
Very Funny
I am glad I found this show, Gregg and Aaron are very funny. The dynamic between the two of them is amazing, I love the stories (both basketball, and non-basketball). I'm not the biggest basketball afficionado, but I think this show is awakening my interest, I recommend comedy fans give this a shot. Mr. Tom Scharpling likes this show, when was the last time he steered you wrong?
