Love the show. Regarding episode about Utah Jazz...

You’re definitely right that the Jazz does not fit Salt Lake but you said they discriminate against music there? Have you spent time in salt lake? Like not just passing through the airport or a quick ride to the ski lifts but have you been around the city. Don’t get where such odd assumptions come from. With that being said 5 star show! Loved the NFL origins episodes especially

Not bad

I really like the podcast and the story… but they don’t release the stories often enough. If only they cared more…
