I love the variety of guests

Though I strenuously disagree with Tom’s stance on Barry Bonds and the HOF, I thoroughly enjoy listening to the variety of guests presented.
It’s a sports-themed podcast, but topics range the gamut with a diversity of guests.

Loverro at his best

I am so happy Loverro finally launched a podcast. I could listen to him tell stories for hours. He's the best journalist around and truly a pleasure to listen to each and every week. Thanks Thom!
