Hit and Hustle has the best breakdowns but are probably the weakest at speaking/podcasting


Some episodes you really gotta power through the sniffles from Greg and Jamie constantly says obviously

Agree, I have never heard anyone use as many filler words as Jamie. It's almost unbearable to listen to but their content is very good.

Those are easy to find. If the runtime is less than 4 hours, he isn't involved

Yeah but 3.5 hours of his podcasts are dedicated to him saying "I know something, but I am not telling" and Drops not so subtle hints about a Player X, who is a RB from a Catholic school in South Carolina or whatever, but won't say his name because he doesn't want to ruin the kids "moment".

The other 30 mins has some decent breakdowns.

I wish he had a live segment where he took callers.

Yeah, he seems like a good guy, but Greg just does not have a voice for radio.

He says "right" after every sentence

I would love that, hopefully it would go like Tosh.0's Kiffin's Krimson Korner

"Hey Bryan, you're a washed up D3 guy that never made it farther than QB coach, only coached a handful of years, never accomplished anything of note, but people still call you 'Coach' today. How ridiculous is your ego, and how small is your penis, really?"

Mike Singer has been mocking Michigan and Ej so hard. Anyone hear the recruiting pod? Said if JO chooses ND tomorrow, he will be on to discuss. If JO chooses michigan, they will have a michigan reporter. Doing a bad job describing it but it was funny

Yeah I caught that. Imagine promoting EJ Holland as a guest.

I just had to go back and watch those again.

I was actually just sitting here wondering... "hmm, I wonder why Betsy Cash Money doesn't like Notre Dame"
Guess I know now, and I'm free to live my life without this weight of not knowing.

Anyone else not like the sound of Drew Mentock's (sp?) voice? I really like TO/TP/Brice, but when he is on it's like a squeak wheel in my ear parts. It's not so much his coverage, and his takes are ok-ish, however they are very Millennial Irish fan takes. It's just the sound of his voice.

Am I a weirdo? Don't answer that

Mentock isn’t good. He sounds like he just rolled out of bed. He also sounds very unprepared during the recruiting podcast with Eric Thomas.

It's a combination of his confidence and scratchy voice talking in the back of his throat. On the pod with Thomas, he was very clearly reading every word he was saying. It felt very unnatural/awkward.

Robotic sounding maybe? I can't quite pin point it. Just really hard to listen to.

Very hard for the ND beat to please this crowd.

I, myself, enjoy all the free podcasts they allow me to listen to.

I totally agree, and that wasn't my intent, as I am a big fan of the pod, it just something about Drews voice, kinda like Christians sniffling or other things some people do. Just something I noticed. I will still listen to it obviously, it was just an observation I guess.
